This past week was a very productive week! Even though nothing new was published, I got my head down and focused on the SOCK. I wrote 4 demo drafts for some really cool and awesome demos all relating to acoustics and Brad has been really helpful with edits and drafts the whole way through. It’s somehow nearing the end of the summer so it’s hammer time!

With just a few weeks remaining, I can’t believe the summer has flown by so fast. So far this summer has been a fantastic experience and I’ve been able to meet so many amazing people. There are already possible opportunities popping up for next summer which is crazy. 

I got to hang out with other interns again this week and we had a lot of fun playing some more jackbox games. Those are definitely becoming a fan favorite. We also had a professional development meeting and got to learn how to effectively create non-academic resumes, which for someone who does not want to go into academia, was very helpful. 

This next week proves to be a tricky one, as I’m travelling to visit my extended family for the first time since covid but I also have to record a number of videos. It is totally doable (I brought all the materials I need), but it won’t necessarily be a walk in the park. But until next week!

Arrivederci!
