Timing

Let's recap, shall we?

• Covid happened when I was in high school
• My undergraduate college application cycle was by far the most competitive cycle
• My college major (CS) became super saturated while I was in undergrad, making it harder to find internships
• My graduate college application cycle was by far the most competitive cycle
• I'll be graduating in a recession

At every step of this, I was told not to worry about the possibility of the next step happening, yet here we are.
