Canceled Plans

This month was really slow, I didn't do much for mentorship. I was supposed to meet with my mentor a few times and volunteer at a walk for Breast Cancer a couple weeks ago and didn't get to go to the office to help as much as I would have liked to. All I did was work on my resources and find information for potential patients in my own time. Although this month wasn't as productive as I would have liked, I did get to meet with my mentor to interview her for my second interview for senior project. We talked about how she got to where she's at now in her career and if she'd recommend her profession to others but more specifically, myself.

3. Volunteering more will show me what the environment might be like when you need to counsel someone or be able to see who is in need of counseling.
