I feel so inspired!

I am so thankful for the opportunity that CAMP has given me. I won a badge in a contest and I have ALWAYS wanted to attend this conference for years, but the badge prices were a bit scary! When I found out that I was going to CAMP, I was so excited!

I looked through the schedule and didn't really know what to expect. The descriptions of the panels didn't really make sense as to how I could benefit from them... but then I saw some panels on remote working and finding your own inspiration, so I thought I would just go to those ones.

Did that happen? Not only did I go to those two, but I attended almost ALL the panels! Some panels overlapped eachother, so I couldn't go to all of them... and on my first day I was so pooped because there was SO. MUCH. KNOWLEDGE. coming at me!

I had to call it a day after 4pm on the first day... and then I attended the second day and wow... it was a true eyeopener. I learned about the hololens, lego, graphic design projects done by prestigious design companies and designers, etc. It was so awesome and I am looking forward to going again next year (early-bird prices!)

The panel that really resonated with me the most was the remote one. It was all about working remotely and how to transition your workforce that way. Also, the presenter is actually a developer. I took a look at their profile and looked at the courses they took and sigh, their marketing tactics are starting to work on me... maybe I should learn how to code too? I mean I know how to troubleshoot some basic stuff in HTML and CSS, but it'd probably be more beneficial for my career (and for a remote work career) if I knew how to code, design, market and be creative!!

I'd love to go to their school to learn, but it's all the way in Toronto! I'm going to see if we have anything similar here... if not, then Code Academy it is!

After attending CAMP, I realized that there's a whole bunch of possibilities out there. I love marketing, I love being creative, but I also freaking love being resourceful... and I think if I learn how to code, that'll just add to knowing more about the behind-the-scenes to help solve problems and prevent them! Now I just need to find ways to encompass this in my work... hmm. But first, I must practice what I want to do and find the right opportunity!

I felt really tired this week and my head felt stuffy... I'm wondering if I'm feeling overworked from coming into work after vacation... or rather my perfect productive time is actually around 9 - 10am in the morning. If I can find an opportunity that is flexible with this, then that would be gooooold!
