The New Year At Golden Compass

So with the first month almost over and done with what exactly has changed? Well Fortunately for me I had just finished my pipeline call sheets which did take some of the pressure off my shoulders and got me to finally cross off the goal for the monthly scheduling. A really good feeling by the way, but unfortunately for me as I had mentioned in the previous blog about my online courses I was not able to pay for my online courses which is now being prolonged. I actually plan be starting them towards the beginning of February but I can only hope at this point. Anyways as for my 30 min. presentation I didn't get to present on the original date I had intended on (today) and was prolonged to Thursday. All in all this was a really good month and I'm really hoping for my presentation to go good.

Senior Project, The Holiday

1.  It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school.  What did you over the break with your senior project?
  • For my Senior project I did a total of 28 hrs. over the break and currently I am working on taking classes to get my very own license to insurance. So in order to get Alex's help to passing that test we both made an agreement that as long as I keep coming in and helping out he'd be more than willing to help out with my senior project.
2.  What was the most important thing you learned from what you did and why?  What was the source of what you learned?
  •  The importance of organization. Solely because now that Chris is gone and left unfinished pipeline contact info I'm the one that is stuck inputting everything.
3.  If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers of your EQ, who would you talk to and why?
  • I would most likely talk to my mentor solely because of the fact that he has had multiple experiences where people helped him out with his business or had just wasted his time and made the company lose money along along with them.
