A life-changing week at Elevate
Expectations are meant to be broken. I never imagined just how paradigm-shifting two days of Elevate would have been. This is my journey.
Prior to attending the tech festival, I spent the weekend competing at Elevate Tech Jam. If you ever been to a hackathon, you know first hand the amount of grinding and sleep you get- after all, you only get 36 hours to develop your hack.
After pitching my hack on Sunday, I received a free ticket to Elevate and went home immediately to catch up on my beauty sleep😴.
Big Mistake #1
I woke up on Monday morning at a normal time and proceeded to check my phone. It read something like this:
Living over an hour away, I was already too late to make it in time for the pre-Elevate meet up so I decided to just go to school, skipping the first day of Elevate.
Once again, Big Mistake.
I don’t support skipping school, however, once I experienced Elevate and realized what I was missing, I quickly regretted not going on Monday.
