school assignments🥱
i thought i would have sm free time for project work but i only had around 2 hours. i used those hours to reach out to more people, being more specific with the people i targeted, research how scrubbers internally work & add to that article

#buildinpublic D7
- caught up on a LOT of school stuff, feels super relieving
- didn’t make a lot of article process today, but i have a new idea for a video covering different types of water pollution that the shipping industry contributes to

tbh project progress was mid👇🏼

#buildinpublic D6
good article progress today, i have more clarity on the tiny details of my project too. realising that this article might take a bit longer than expected because of timing issues w school right now. not an issue because i’m waiting on replies from people rn 👇🏼

this whole #buildinpublic challenge genuinely has been such a big motivator, i hate thinking about not having anything to post about as a result of my own lack of discipline or laziness. love seeing other projects on my tl too

#buildinpublic D5
a bit behind where I wanted to be in the project focus today, noticed that i had some big school stuff coming up so i prioritised that today. got to work on my c++ lessons, and finished putting together my entire school newspaper! project progress below 👇🏼

#buildinpublic D4
(took thanksgiving break)
- finished planning the outline of an article to sum up my findings around sulphur sludge discharge
- made an “outreach” game plan to make sure i meet the right people that can answer my highly specific questions around this project

#buildinpublic D3
had a great group call with @manaallakhani @SarahN2323 @SharanaSabesan @JeremiNuer ,
set new goals for my focus progress:
- get article done before tuesday(research + hypothesis)
- figure out who i want to talk to about my hypothesis and why, outreach by sunday

#buildinpublic D2
Today I’m finishing up a memo I started writing about sludge wastewater over the weekend. This is hopefully going to be sent to MIT Water Waste! I’m also planning to learn more about how to code in C++, currently at structs 👀 One more goal, extra leg workouts!

#buildinpublic D1
Today I’m going to start outlining an article that’s going to contain my findings, my hypothesis, and validation for my ideas (lab reports, simulations, etc). I’m also going to research two ideas I have for separating sulphur from seawater through the scrubber.

#buildinpublic D13 🔥

#buildinpublic d4
i mainly had basic (not fun to hear abt) work, i’ll talk abt my interesting insight today:
- having to work on school work was easier but made me want to procrastinate/whine more than the harder/in-depth work on the coral project i’m doing
- i get to > have to

#buildinpublic d3
- had the coolest meeting with @reef_ball 🪸 so inspired by their genuine love for what they do (i LOVE oceanic stuff btw)
- successfully stayed on task and got things done (NO procrastinating)
- did SAT prep (current main priority)
i’m happy with my work today
