Mentor Meeting Friday the 13th

Ms. Zaryski and I had our second mentor meeting yesterday and it went well, as expected (despite my post title, which may suggest otherwise).
We mainly talked about all the elements that go into short term and long term planning. As an example, she let me view her notebook that she uses to plan choir rehearsals. I must say, her plans are very thorough and neatly written! It's nice to see another person's thought process.

I also told her how my "less planned" week turned out, and it went really well. I have never tried to plan days in advance, so why should I do that here? It's always worked for me if I plan my days out as they come. I know it's essential that I have an end goal each week (or 2 weeks), so I will always try to have that figured out each time.

She also gave me an interesting idea. I could potentially build mini parts of my house and try our different materials. Or come up with a couple different experiments to test the layout or materials used so I can settle on a design I like. Of course I would have to determine more specifics and make enough time to do this, but it's a fun idea that I didn't even think about!

We talked about my goal for next week, which is a little cloudy. Since I will be done with the practice drawing, I won't have any concrete (get it? sorta?)  hands-on work I can accomplish; I will be primarily researching. I'm going to want to come up with a basic model I want for my house and determine what energy systems and such I'd like to use. I have a feeling I'll need to make some lists in the near future.
