Day 4 March 23rd
We were unable to meet on friday due to my mentor being busy, but it didnt really affect our set schedule too much. We have now gotten more into drawing i have started to graduate from stick figures to sub par looking people, he says i have improved slightly since we last met' he still thinks that i am rushing through it all and being very sloppy with me drawings, and looking at them he does have a point. Today i got to watch him sketch out a woman for his work it is amazing seeing how much detail he can put into a drawing looking at this is kinda depressing because comparing to his realistic looking woman and compare it to my ugly looking drawing they are universes apart, but my mentor re assures me that i takes time and practice to get to where his drawing abilities are. So through the day i was drawing improved stick figures, and with his help i was able to make them decent looking.

3rd day March 16
We have agreed to meet every Saturday, after school on fridays, and on minimum days, and during spring break we will do the core of our workload. We continued from where we left off last time we met i continued with the basis of drawing, this time we also studied some of my mentors drawings, and he had me analyze them he also taught me how important it is to be neat in your drawings, he told me write lightly with the pencil so if you make a mistake it is easier to erase, because i tend to write very boldly with my pencil and since i mess up multiple times my "drawings" look messy. I also received a sketch pad from my mentor in which he told me to practice my drawing so i could practice when we were not meeting up.

Day 2 March 9th
This time we met on a Saturday and got started on the basis of drawing, we started with the basic shapes like making a straight line and circles, this was rather frustrating due to the constant errors and corrections from my mentor which by no means are not helpful but when something irritates you everything starts irritating you, my mentor showed me how he starts out his drawings he says most to get the most out of your drawings is that to have a clear head and only focus on what you are drawing, and it kinda worked for me, my mentor thinks that i am trying to rush things, and tells me to slow down a bit, and take things slow and to pay attention to detail. Time flew by during this session as i learned many things relating to the basis of drawing.

Day 1 March 1st 2013
Thus begins the work with my mentor. I met my mentor through my cousin who is a good friend of his, my mentors name is Manfredo Mendez and he runs an online graphic design business in which he draws and people purchase his work. We met in the afternoon at his home, and we discussed what we would be doing over the months to come i told him about the main focus of senior project and the role he would be playing in it. We got things started out by him showing me his various sketches many of them work related, he also told me that he once worked for pixar which i found amazing. Todays mentoring session was basically a breaking the ice meeting so we could get to know each other better and begin work on the mentor part of senior project.

Love
Out of the ten chapters honesty is the most important aspect of love, because to have love you have to have honesty, you cannot have a relationship that is established under lies and deception. Most people disregard honesty in my opinion because today's media is based around lies, so people think its ok to have a relationship that is based of lies. In my opinion even lies to protect people can damage love because although it may hurt the person at the moment it will hurt them more if you tell a lie to cover that up later on so in the end you have to be honest to have a successful relationship

Conventional
A conventional type according to the assessment i took is someone who likes a very structural and organized activities, they tend to have strong verbal abilities and prefer a calm, orderly, and efficient environment and love to work in groups. The majors that are related to this is are Accounting, Education, Management, Marketing, Criminal Justice, and Social Work, and the careers that relate to this are Account Administrator, Auditor, Computer Operator, Treasurer, and Polygraph Examiner. These results really surprised me i had not even considered any of the majors or careers because i just don't see myself doing them, because they involve me being stuck in an office all day long I am a person who loves to be active and outside so it really caught me by surprise. By taking this survey i was able to realize that there are other career options out there and some may not be what you expect it to be, it helped me pay more attention to the new career options that seem to fit me so this survey helped a lot.

Heros
Everyone has someone they look up to, a hero someone who represents someone they would like to be, someone to models their lives and character after. My hero is my mother someone who has overcome so many things, she may not have super powers but she sure is a super woman. My mom in my opinion displays all the qualities a hero would she is determined, strong, confident, and brave. All these qualities make my mother my hero because she is inspiring, its hard to become a single mother at 26 and she never gave up and she never surrendered, a quality of a hero when facing adversity they do not flinch and will do anything to overcome it. She is determined because once she has her mind set on a goal look out no one is gonna stop her, just like heros of literature she will do anything to accomplish her goal. She is brave because she has overcome tumor surgery and the pain that came along with it, like every hero she is brave and can take pain this is a true quality of a hero. So my hero is my mother because of all the qualities she posses that resemble a hero, and this is what makes her a real hero to me.
