August 10 Weekly Update
Summer Job
The first week of Mini Munich was both exciting and boring. There were always times where you are in this flow state and when there is nothing to do at all. But I learned that working with kids takes much patience and knowing what a child vibes with.
Working on a job that has variety and requires creativity is sometimes hard but pretty rewarding, so I definitely want to work on a job with lots of variety that needs creative problem solving skills like an GTM or engineering job.
I’m writing this before working at the water bar: Working at the water bar is probably stressful but there is not much room for creative problem solving. But instead of hating on the area, there is always things that you can do to improve the game, and it will likely be a good experience to understand how a repetitive job looks like. I’m for sure gonna be interested how motivated the kids working at the water bar will be. After my first day of work at the water bar: It was quite stressful sometimes and felt like we had no organization sometimes. The difference between the water bar and the Embassy is that the water bar is very straight forward. All you see is water cups that get filled up and washed instead of preparing for international visitors. But working in such a stressful area helps you manage stressful situations.

I’ve also been looking into film opportunities, which Claude helped me with. I joined a few Facebook groups that focus on Vancouver’s filming industry, but am also looking at joining an Entry Permittee Logbook holder program which is a formal pathway for starters in the film industry, that also gives you cool networking and other opportunities.
Project status
I have not made any progress on any project because I’ve not exactly found what project would be the best fit for me. I will either continue working on my polymer electrolytes project, or start something in the healthcare/environmental field. I found this cool global climate x health challenge which I will look deeper into.
That’s it for this week’s update.
Ps.
A question I think everyone should ask is what do I do to live a healthy life?
