Man, it's been too long since I last did mentorship. I kept meaning to go during this month, but I kept putting it off because I was feeling pretty bogged down with school and other things. When Thanksgiving break rolled around I thought about hitting up my mentor, but I decided not to since it was a holiday and everything. I didn't want to bug her if she was taking time off for the week. I've been feeling kinda guilty since I've been slacking on senior project a little bit. This November my priorities shifted to college related stuff. I wanted to really concentrate on filling out my college apps and writing the various personal statement papers. I'm proud to say that most of them are already submitted, and the rest aren't due until mid-January. With that weight off my shoulders, I feel ready to hop back on the senior project grind. I definitely want to do a good amount of hours in the next two weeks. I've got a lot of catching up to do for my independent component.
One cool thing I learned regarding my topic was that UC's do not offer kinesiology majors, so in California, if you want to be a physical therapist, you're better off doing your undergraduate studies at a CSU. And the money you save by going to a CSU rather than a UC can go towards paying for grad school later on. I'm not planning on being a physical therapist, but money saving tips like these get me pretty stoked for some reason. I guess it's because I'm Chinese. #asianstereotypes
So yeah, that's about it. And I swear I'll start logging hours again. Double pinky-promise.

Blog 10: EQ
1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ.
2a. No; provides framework of study, can be argued, but wording doesn't make sense.
2b. Yes; provides framework for study, can be argued, wording makes sense
2c. Yes; provides framework for study, can be argued, wording makes sense
2d. Yes; provides framework for study, can be argued, wording makes sense
2a. No; provides framework of study, can be argued, but wording doesn't make sense.

3. EQ Revision: How can a physical therapist best ensure a patient is efficiently cared for in an outpatient physical therapy setting?

Blog 9: Lesson 1 Reflection
1. Positive statement - I'm kinda proud of how I didn't figure out how I was going to present my information until like 3 minutes before I presented. I think I did a real good job captivating the audience and keeping them interested throughout the entire 10 minutes.
2a. I would give myself an AP. I think my presentation itself was good and interesting but I think I may have skipped some of the key points in the rubric, just because I got too caught up in the speaking aspect of the presentation.
2b. I don't think I cited enough sources, I also didn't really utilize my prop because I ran out of time.
3. I think the conversational tone I took up worked pretty well. A lot of times it's easy to lose your audience because the content is dense or not that interesting, like my topic, physical therapy. So I think talking to the audience more casually made my presentation more interesting.
4. I'd go back and probably time myself before I presented to gauge how quickly I needed to say my info. I almost ran out of time, and it was pretty scary because I barely had time to cover my points.
