🎓 Day 0 – 90 Days Until My First Internship: Let’s Learn, Build, and Struggle Together

In final year, I realized — just building projects and getting good grades isn't enough.
What really matters is consistency, showing up, and being real about the journey — even when it’s messy.

Hi, I’m Broke-Kid, a final-year CS student with no internship in hand — yet. But I’ve got something better: a Mission. This blog kicks off my 90-day journey to build, share, fail, and rise in public — as I prep for my first internship (whenever it comes).

🔥 Why This Blog Series?

This blog is for:

• Students balancing DSA, projects, and college chaos

• Self-taught devs tired of “follow this perfect roadmap” advice

• Anyone who feels behind but still shows up every day

You don’t need a 9-star HackerRank profile or 5 Kaggle gold medals.
You need clarity, courage, and a real plan that works for you.

🎯 My 90-Day Mission

Here’s what I want to achieve before internship season hits:

• 🚀 Build a full-stack Tesla Configurator Clone with MERN

• 💰 Finish my MERN based personal lifestyle Project Broke-Kid

• 🧠 Master DSA: Trees, Hashing, Linked Lists

• 🐍 Polish Python for coding rounds & projects

• 🌐 Make a portfolio that screams “Hire me.”

• ✍️ Publish 2 raw, honest blogs per week

✅ No excuses. Just execution, reflection, and accountability.

📦 What You’ll Get from These Blogs

Every post will include:

• ✅ What I built or learned

• ❌ What I failed at or skipped

• 📚 Real notes, tools, resources I use

• 🧩 Honest thoughts on fear, pressure, and growth

No sugarcoating. No overnight success.
Just raw, real student life — the kind no YouTube tutorial covers.

💡 Project #1: Tesla Clone in MERN

I’m starting my journey with a bold, flashy, and recruiter-friendly project — a Tesla Configurator Clone built using:

• React + Tailwind CSS

• Node.js + Express

• MongoDB + Cloudinary

• Full Auth, Payment UI, and Deployment (on Vercel / Render)

This isn’t a “todo app” or “Instagram copy.”
It’s a statement project. One that reflects real frontend polish + backend logic.

🔧 I’ll share a step-by-step devlog in upcoming blogs.
