Update on Mentor Hours

Hrs. this session: 2hrs       Running total: 7hrs
I shadowed my mentor yesterday January 10, 2013 for 2 hours. Now i only have 18 hours left to do! I finally got to see how highlights are done. It was quite interesting and it took quite a long time. I am hoping to start writing my paper next week!

"Fiscal Cliff Response"

The Democrat's position regarding the Fiscal Cliff is that they are willing to work with the Republicans in other to find a solution for the "Fiscal Cliff." Democrats do want deficit reduction and want to work with the Republicans but it seems like the Republicans want it all. Also the Democrats want higher taxes on wealthier Americans. The Republican's position regarding the Fiscal Cliff is strong in its position, the Republicans want deficit reduction but they just don't seem to accept higher taxes. Republicans want higher taxes on small business owners not just on wealthier Americans.

The way I conducted my research was by typing specific words in the google search bar. Also i edited the search tools to get as much resent information as possible. Also i narrawed my research down by clicking on the "News" bar. I tried to go on as many known sites as possible. Finally I only read things that seemed believeable.

mentor hours

Hrs. this session: 4hrs      Running total: 5hrs
I shadowed my mentor for 4 hours today January 3rd, 2013. Five hours down 20 more to go! I liked shadowing my mentor because in a salon with regular costumers you actually get to know more each individual instead of like  in  a regular store you see tons of diferent people everyday and you can only remember a few of them. I'm actually getting an idea of how to cut hair compared to how when i started shadowing him i knew nothing. Though i like styling hair i would prefer to focus on doing hairstyles instead of cutting and dying hair. I'm planning on doing more hours next week hopefully.
