The long week leading to DevSprints | TWTW #59
Saturday (26/10/2019) — Sunday (27/10/2019)
Weekend at home. Visited the skin specialist in the morning to show my skin rashes. Need to take medicines on a timely basis. Hope it gets well.
Did nothing else particularly productive on saturday apart from Google Cloud Platform course on Coursera. On Sunday, got organized by removing clutter, adding more white space and focusing on little things.
Something interesting happened on Sunday. A pigeon got stuck between window sill and net. You can read about the in-depth meaning I derived from that experience.
My uncle (Shibu Apapan) and aunt (Salo Aunty) came to our place in the evening from Chennai. They are from New York, where my cousin brother (Chris) is doing his computer science degree in Rutgers University. It was really nice to meet them after almost two years. They primarily came over to attend my cousin sisters engagement but due to the time of the year, Chris could not make it due to ongoing classes.
Finished reading a book on speed reading and am now trying to implement it while reading other books.

Feeling determined with the new positive self talk content on the wall. Chaithanya Madam’s last day at college as she is taking Maternity leave.

At college, in the first three hours:
- Got permission for announcing Devsprints in each class
- Completed reading the introduction of Tolstoy collection (starting to appreciate his personality and views)
- Started researching for ARomapp application.
Some random Iconic pictures (yup, self-declared)



Rust Workshop by Devdutt in the evening.

Got to interact with Anand Davichan in the evening. He encouraged me to consider entrepreneurship immediately after college.
Tuesday (29/10/2019)
- Started looking in to the ways to build the project for iBeTo. Collected offline registrations at front desk.
- Had conference call with Raj Sir from Mettle Networks for guidance on the progress of our final year project.
Wednesday (30/10/2019)
Peaceful day at college. Evening, juniors took Git Workshop for students.

Thursday (31/10/2019)
Half day at college — partly due to the bad rains and partly due to the necessity to clean the college for tomorrow’s accreditation work.
Nitin from the internship opportunity helped me get organized to get the work done on time. I appreciate the extensive effort he is taking in.

Accreditation day! Class looked quite crowded. Quite a relaxing day apart from the regular ‘are they around’ queries.
Saturday (02/11/2019)
Heavy duty planning work for tomorrows Devsprints happened. Hope it all goes well.
Sunday (03/11/2019)
Today is the day of devsprints!


Session went quite well in my opinion. Habitica was cancelled due to unexpected errors in setting up the environment. Will send a detailed write up in the future. Hung out in the evening with these Juniors!

Now major two milestones to meet:
- Complete iBeTo project by Wednesday (might cancel it as it seems impossible with the given situation)
- Study academics
Cheers!
