TWTW stands for The Week That Was. It is a summary of all that I’ve done this week.

This week was Exam week for me which meant loads of last minute studies and crazy schedules! :P Amidst all that, something I was looking forward to was Mridula’s email stating the theme and the activities for the week.

Theme for the week

We had a call on Tuesday which helped bring more clarity into what exactly we had to do. We had to prepare a draft (shitty first draft aka SFD) of our short-term and long-term goals in life. This really helps as if you have a vision and a plan then there’s a higher probability of seeing it come to life similar to a vision board. Then we were asked to find two women who have accomplished what we wish to accomplish one day and then email them requesting them for an interview some time next week.

There was also a Stalk-a-thon that was conducted on Thursday where we got 15 minutes to find the email ids or LinkedIn profiles of two women who are truly inspirational. This was a real eye-opener as people you wish to be like is just a screen away and that was something that I really understood the gravity of this week.

On Thursday I also took part in an online conference called the “AWS Innovate- Machine Learning and AI edition”. It was loads of fun and saw live demos of how ML is being used in everyday life and it is a hype but deservedly so.

Saturday: I had a call with my guide Paavini and it was really nice to get an opportunity to interact with someone who’s just one year senior but has accomplished so much in life. The summary of the call can be found here:

In short, this week was quite spectacular. Eagerly awaiting the response for interviews. Can’t wait to see what happens next week!
