I still can't do a photo essay because of privacy issues, but I will still write about my final experiences at SPAWAR.
Overall, I really enjoyed working at SPAWAR! It was great to explore computer programming and also understanding an independent working environment. At first, I thought my work was going to be a lot harder! But once I got myself situated, the wasn't really too bad! It actually became really fun and easy!
One of the things I learned from working at SPAWAR is that the workplace is usually pretty relaxed. I thought since I had to work on a lot of projects, I expected to work all day with no breaks. I later found out that my schedule was pretty relaxed.
This internship was pretty independent because you have to keep track a lot things on your own. For example, what you have completed, what your work schedule is, and also when you can take breaks. You have to start making your own decisions in your work environment in order to show that you want to learn something.
One skill that I applied to working at SPAWAR was setting goals for myself. Even though my job wads pretty straightforward, I wanted to keep myself busy for most of the time. By writing self goals in my notebooks, I was able to prioritize my work and stay on track with my daily assignments.
One skill that I have learned from working at SPAWAR is to develop connections with my co-workers. I did not really know a lot of people at SPAWAR other than my brother and two of my friends. Once I started working, some of my co-workers helped me out with some of my projects and I got to know them a lot! Getting to know your co-workers is useful because they may have some experiences with the stuff you are working on. For example, one of my co-workers knew how to use Python and she helped me understand Python more.
I am glad that I got to do my Internship at SPAWAR. I hope that I will be able to be am intern at SPAWAR during my senior tear.
