First Day Working with My Mentor

The First Day I Worked with My Mentor March 9, 2014

Last sunday, I actually started working with my mentor. I was kind of nervous but the fact that my mentor is my sister's friend somewhat took my nerves away. Although it was not the first time I met with him, I still found it hard to get along with him during the work. I even thought that he might get disappointed with me because I had no idea what I was going to do. But he was nice to consider that I was a beginner. So next time, I'm going to try to be more confident. Anyways, before we started working on the project, we talked about how we are going to meet and where. We didn't get clear enough about it but I don't think that it's going to be a problem since he's not being hard to meet with. We have decided to do a website on dogs. When he told me that it was going to be about dogs, the first thing that came into my mind was cute little puppies. (Although I'm kind of scared of dogs). He showed me some samples and ideas on how our website is going to look like. I found it interesting since we're doing it specifically on Pitbulls. I thought they're cool in pictures, but not in person. Good thing I only have to see them in pictures! Then, he gave me a brief explanation of how we are going to do it step-by-step. Honestly, I thought it was going to be hard, but he said he's going to be helping me most of the time so I wouldn't have to worry about it, which made me feel more confident. Then, lastly, we made a web design project plan, a chart where we put the target dates. I feel so pressured yet excited since this is really the job that I want to have in the future. In my next meeting with my mentor, I am to make a mock-up site for my website.
