HS Diary No. 8: Mohamed Bamba

Posted Apr 22, 2017
Mohamed Bamba: So my good friend Anthony Ochefu and I said, “Let’s say we’re going to Cancun so we have an extra week to relax after this long season.” I write a proposal and tell the project advisor, “Yeah, we’re thinking of going to China.” I guess I should’ve done less research on my plan for China, because 3 weeks after I submitted the proposal, I got approval and it was on its way to becoming a reality.
