Internship Week

     So internship week...Im sure everyone learned a lot, but not me. Due to a killer upper respiratory infection, I had to cancel my plans to go to West Virginia and work in my aunt's spa. Instead I stayed home and coughed it up all week but by the time I was better we were already too far into the week so no internship for me:/ 
     So instead Im gonna talk about some of my possible career choices just off the top of my head. The first one would be as a marine biologist. I don't know too much about the equipment in this area but I know marine biologists use a lot of technology. Lately I've heard about submarine explorations to observe and better understand sea life. Just the submarine itself relies completely on technology between tracking devices and computers. I also just looked up a general list of equipment they use in everyday work and came up with: scuba gear, telescopes, microscopes, a GPS, satellites, grabbers for sampling off of the bottom, succession plates, quadrants, beach seines, trawls, dredges, thermometers, bathythermograph, hydrometer, salinometer, oxygen probes, current meters, surveying equipment, sounder and fathometers.
     The second possible career choice would be film making which definitely uses a lot of technology. Technology in this career includes film, cameras, lights, sound, music, projectors and speakers. The actual technology involved in the filmmaking includes film, digital media, sound, foley inserts, actor voice dubbing and backgrounds. The latest advancements in this area include steadicam, dolly, CGI, digital technology and stereoscopic imaging. 
     As for my plans for approaching quarter 2 I definitely plan to work on my 20 time project before the due date. I also plan to get all my projects finished ahead of time. I am also hoping to get a good fade on the computer business project with my team no dip;) so yup that's it.
