      <title>My HNG Internship Goals</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Phew! Here We go. Or, Here I go!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;My first ever blog post. This is something I have been yearning to do, albeit in the very near future. But now I have to do it, way before I am mentally prepared. Or so I thought,&lt;br&gt;
Thanks to Zuri, the organizers of the HNG internship.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In case you are oblivion to it, the HNG internship is a virtual internship for tech people who want to improve their skills, get better at their chosen track, and know what it means to work as a team, with a deadline in mind. &lt;br&gt;
You might say, under pressure, trust me you won't be wrong(roll eyes).  This is the 8th cohort, HNG8.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nevertheless, I am excited to be a part of it, Excited to be writing this. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  My Goals For The Next 8 Weeks
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cohort would be for 3 months or a little less. But my short term goal, for the next 8 weeks to be precise, is.....to be honest? Don't get thrown out of the internship, lol.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To be realistic, HNG is tough, it's demanding. things are being done at an extremely fast pace and one has to do a lot to keep up. If the 'testimonies' of interns from the past cohorts are to be believed. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So I think it's reasonable if my goal for the next 8 weeks is to remain in the program. And of course, get to the final phase. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  A Few Useful Links
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And because this post is a task from HNG, we were asked to add a few links too. So......&lt;br&gt;
Here's a link to a Figma beginner's tutorial, it's a &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcvt9MSUylU&amp;amp;list=PL-XH0r9ri_4xR4hqQ8LJs1sI3M-U-GYLP&amp;amp;index=1"&gt;Youtube video&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here's another link, a Git and Github tutorial from &lt;a href="https://www.w3schools.com/git/default.asp"&gt;W3schools&lt;/a&gt;. I personally love this one, because it is well explained, easy to follow and you end up doing something real, practical. &lt;br&gt;
I have a special spot for this because they accepted my pull request. Lol. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, an  HTML tutorial, I started my tech journey with HTML at W3schools so I think it makes sense if I add a link from them. &lt;a&gt;Wschools HTML tutuorial&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And lastly, one on &lt;a href="https://www.programiz.com/python-programming"&gt;Python&lt;/a&gt;. just because I'm a Python programmer.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Signing Out
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To end my first ever blog post(sincerely elated about this), here's a link to their website &lt;a href="https://internship.zuri.team"&gt;https://internship.zuri.team&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I'll surely do this again, and again. Rinse, repeat!&lt;/p&gt;
