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.

CAS Blog: March 2020

Lately, I have been negotiating with the head of the middle school campus of my school in planning a service project for National Honor Society, where I'm planning to teach the middle schoolers of the campus computer programming, which I believe really connects with the nationwide and worldwide need of more leaders in STEM fields as computing becomes larger and larger every day. Besides the implementation of the Magic: The Gathering Club at school, I haven't really done much of service for the school in a while, so I'm really excited for this upcoming project. Additionally, ever since there was a relative void left when I decided to no longer do workouts with Blake, I've been lately getting outside more and doing walks around the neighborhood, which is really nice and allows me to appreciate the nice breeze, blue sky, and the world outside of strings and screens.

CAS Project Blog #4

Due to the water crisis that hit Houston yesterday, I was unable to find the Rice cryptocurrency course meeting on campus as most of the buildings had been closed, and as no prior announcement was sent to notify the interns. Despite this I spent some time walking around the Rice University campus and admiring the various sites there are to see. Additionally, upon arriving home and grabbing dinner I curled up and did some cryptocurrency/blockchain research myself to fill this gap, so fortunately all was not lost. (Learning Outcome: #1, #5)

CAS Project Blog #3

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.
