Welcome Message and Name

A lifelong learner. Welcome to the cans for Scholars application. My name is Lynn and I'm Conrad you. We're so glad you here and thank you for your interest. First off three things you should know about the program. The first is that you're signing up for an eight-week virtual experience that you'll Embark as your entry ticket into this lifelong Community, will be talking about mindsets and building ikigai project and having so much fun. The second is how the application process works.
 So if you're receiving this application, someone in the can search committee already thinks you're pretty cool. So this is kind of like a second date in the format of a form to get to know you better. It's make sure the time commitment makes sense for you. And after you fill out this form, you'll hear back from us over email. Last, but certainly not least. This form consists of two parts and will be your tour guides throughout the entire process. Part one is short, and written answers more administrative.
 Kitchens like where will you be, what are you studying stuff like that. Part two is the video application. Each video will have a set time limit but feel free to re-record your submissions. As many times as you like, take the time to practice but ultimately we'd really like to see the raw authentic answer, good luck and have fun.

Activities and Interests

Question 4 is about the things that you like to do inside and outside of school. Just because they're fun. And why this matters to us is because it helps us create moments and experiences such as meetups and person or online that help you explore your hobbies and interest or share parts of you in that regard. So for me of mine or one of mine is I love trying in these for every year and so this year, it's boxing.
 And last year is actually learning how to ski and so wanting to share like the sports aspect is something that's really important to me and really important for us all to know more about you and I really appreciate you sharing.

Congrats on getting through the written application part. Now, on to our first question, from the video part in 90 seconds, tell me about a rabbit hole of knowledge that you went down. And what's the thing that you learned? Where did you learn it? How did you find it, was it relevant to a project you were working on for school or elsewhere? Or was it just something you were curious about?

Something you value

Quirk

Okay, last question in 90 seconds. What's something quirky or kind of weird about yourself that you love? Do you share this quirk with others often, or do you kind of keep it to yourself?
