CAS Blog: February 2019

I have been continuing to attend D&D Club at school. I've also been continuing to attend Film Club whenever it occurs, although there really isn't a tight schedule to pull it all together; it is supposed to happen every Tuesday, although at this point I guess it's just whenever Trevor feels like it, which I honestly can't blame him for as I'm often pretty tired after school as well.

I plan on going into computer science, which to set myself apart from the general crowd that will just go and study what they want in college, likely without much afterthought or passion, I want to begin doing coding projects again. For now, though, I feel that D&D, Film Club, and working out with Blake in addition to school is more than enough with everything else I have going on in terms of homework and school commitments.

I have been working on completing slides for my internship supervisor, which will be used in a presentation given to this class of MBA candidates at Rice. The research involved in creating these slides has been really cool and interesting, and has taught me a lot more about cryptocurrency and blockchain economics. An example of one of these slides is below:

On February 20, I actually went to Rice University to attend day one of the course my internship supervisor taught to the MBA candidates. It was pretty interesting seeing all of the MBA candidates in the room, but it was also quite intimidating; me and my fellow intern were the only teens in the entire room, and presumably building, which I guess is really not surprising considering the context we were in. Although most of the information I already knew due to researching it to create the slideshow that was being displayed behind him, it was still a really cool experience attending an actual college course.

On the 29 of February I attended the final cryptocurrency/blockchain economics course for my internship. Although I missed the last meeting (which turned out to be taking place in another building that I was unaware of), this didn't really impede my ability to understand the content, especially because, as I mentioned in a previous blog post, most of the information I had already researched. It was also interesting seeing the various guests and speakers who have had experience in the cryptocurrency/blockchain space, which provides a nice contrast to the more theoretical and economical information that me and my fellow interns have been receiving.
