@PalmerHolt7@KCDNRP Me too! I've also been taking classes so it's been a little hectic for me. This will be a good time to also reflect on my internship and think about how I want to present what I've learned. We're almost there!!
I can't believe there's only one week left of my internship π΅βπ«
Thank you to Vicky Raya from @KCDNRP for hosting my internship! I've learned a lot about the SRFC section's work and hope to work with King County in the future!
Key takeaways:
1) Remote work can be productive & manageable
2) King County has one of the boldest climate plans in the US, addressing the need for community resilience - most are only on mitigation, sometimes adaptation
3) It's too easy pulling all-nighters when living aloneπ«£
@oliviatjohnson I'd be surprised if anyone was 100% done with their deliverables. But it is getting quite close to the end of the quarter/internship. It's a little scary π±
@PalmerHolt7 Was there something you learned from the text that is rarely talked about but is super important that people know? π Not a lot of people connect environment to health for whatever reason
It's crazy how fast this quarter has past by... I'm starting to draft my communication plan π΅βπ«π΅βπ«
How are people prepping themselves for the end of the quarter/internship?
I've been listening to As Long As Grass Grows, an audiobook by Dina Gilio-Whitaker. Since reading on the Makah case in 401, I've been interested in indigenous connections to environmental issues, and this book has been doing well in explaining it in context of the US.
@AllThingsIC I'm creating an internal communications plan for the Sustainable and Resilient Frontline Communities section of the King County Strategic Climate Action Plan. The plan will spread awareness on climate equity.
What's the structure of an internal coms plan?
@nikiKirihara I'm checking in with my Faculty advisor today too! Hopefully I can get some advise and a better idea of the direction I will be going in for my capstone π€π€π€
I did my last interview with kc srfc staff yesterday and oh my god like. You ever feel intimidated by someone cuz they're like. Charismatic?
These interviews have taken up so much of my energy cuz I'm trying to make a good impression while also getting all the info I need πππ
@oliviatjohnson I feel like I haven't gathered enough data fr π and I don't think I'm doing a good job on writing the annotated bibs cuz mmm lazy summer ππ
@bella_capstone I've been having to balance school full-time and the internship, + stuff for art club. I've pulled three all nighters so far because I'm bad at managing my time π my schedule has been structured around my coms class, which ends soon, so maybe things will be slightly better soon?
Kinda weird that it's already week 5 π΅βπ«π΅βπ«
Starting interviews this week and am feeling hella nervous π΅βπ«π΅βπ«π΅βπ« it's gonna be a busy week
