Decided on a different opening GIF this time; figured the classic "Hey Dielle" was probably a bit overdone at this point. So, anyway, another week has passed and - oh, wait, it's not just any week, this week marks the halfway point of CSOS! I genuinely cannot believe that we've already done half of CSOS. Some part of me still thinks there's so much more and that CSOS is just beginning, but I guess I gotta touch base with reality. This week has been interesting, to say the least.
On Monday, I fell down on my elbows causing them to get pretty scraped up, but I was fine overall. On a totally unrelated note, we've all been scootering so much recently! I think I've done over 25 miles on just Lime alone, so that doesn't even take into account Spin miles. Besides being a ton of fun, though, scooters save me a decent bit of money. For instance, Lyfting from Swift to CEF would be $6.75, but scooting only costs just under two bucks. In other words, scooting is here to stay. Member meetings went fine on Monday, nothing too crazy happened so that was nice.
On Tuesday, I finished writing a Python computer program that did my spreadsheeting for me for CEF. I was supposed to go through a large government database and cross compare with our CEF database spreadsheets. My program essentially did that entire task for me, highlighting things it couldn't perfectly change so I could check up myself. It was nothing too crazy, but it was cool to be applying some of the stuff I learned at Duke in my internship.
Thursday, I had a team meeting at 12 at Luna's, which was really good. Basically, I found out, Olivia is leaving and Ben is going to have to take over housing while she's gone and I'm Ben's backup/support. It's gonna be a big responsibility to take on, but I'm excited about it as well. I was in and out of office hours until 8:30, and then afterward, a couple of the interns went bowling together, which was really fun! I also learned I'm so bad at bowling, I bowl better with my nondominant hand, so that's fun!
Friday was pretty cool at the Connected Durham conference we went to. A lot of the speakers were really cool and I honestly felt like it had really useful sessions. Unfortunately, I can't say that our presence there was helpful. We were supposed to be helping out, but I can't think of anything useful we actually did.
The main thing I guess I'd say about this week is probably: pretty routine. Given that it was so routine, though, we found our own ways to break the monotony, which was fun. We mostly just scooted, but also got to try out some cool restaurants.
Here's to Week 6!
