I called my mentor to schedule a meeting with her that day. She told me that she would call me back in a hour. When she called me back I gave her directions to my house. Once she arrived I met her son and daughter. We then were on our way to a human rights thing but she wanted her children to see my daughter.
We then went to the Athens Montessori school for the human rights thing. But we was late everyone had left. We went on a sculpture tour around the school.
We left there and her daughter was ready to go home. We then went to her house where she asked me to water her flowers while she packed for a trip to Jacksonville. Then we went to walk her dogs around the lake. After that she went and had her oil changed.
I told her that I was done with the project. We will be presenting them on Thurday. She said that she would try her best to be there. After a long day she then went and got me lunch and took me back home.

I met with my mentor today.She talked about going to Athens Tech this morning and meeting with the Registered Nurses that will be graduating.She said that when she graduated in 1972 the graduating class was just women.The graduating class now is divided between men and women.
While driving down the road she decided to take to Burger King for lunch.Which was something different for all the past visits.But that was okay.While I finished eating we went to a house that she is fixing up.My mentor and her friend were trying to decide on paint colors.
After we left there we then went to Staham where she was trying to meet a friend of hers.But she wasn't home.While on the drive back we discussed more about the nursing profession.We talked some about the handbook and she asked me if I needed any more information in it.

Today I had to meet with my mentor. I waited in the lobby of the school until she arrived. Once she arrived we went and got some lunch at Zaxbys. We then went to the parking lot to eat but Zaxbys had gave her the wrong kind of salad dressing, so we went back to get that corrected. While we were eating I took some notes on what I was going to include in the handbook.
After we finished eating we then went to porter paint to match some colors to what she is needed to paint. That took a few minutes to do that. We then left and talked more about the project. She talked about going to the hospital and Athens Tech to visit about nursing.
After we left the paint store we went to the Firehall 4 Animal Hospital. She went there to get some pictures for a cake. The picture had black and white spotted puppies on it. She was in that place for about 15 minutes.
Once we left there we went to a bakery shop. We went there to show the bakery the pictures for the cake, that lady said that a real picture would work best. So we left and we across the street and a really expensive clothing store. While we were at that store she had a dress made for her, so she went and tried it on. The dress a kind of a pastel green. It was beautiful.
Then it was getting close to me to get back to school. We then went back to the Firehall 4 Animal Hospital to take the picture that I mentioned earlier. When I arrived back at school I got all of my books from my other class, While she talked to Mr. Girtz. We talked about meeting again in two weeks.

I met with my mentor today. I had to wait in the lobby of the school until she arrived. When she arrived she went around to the school to talk to some of the people that she knew. Before we left my mentor came to talk to Mr. Girtz before we left. Once she arrived we discussed on what we were going to have for lunch. We then went to Zaxbys. We parked in the mall parking lot and ate. After we finished eating we just talked for a while.
My mentor asked me "Why did I want to become a nurse?" I told her that it was a life long career that I always wanted to do. I told her my family history on why I wanted to become a nurse. She told me that she is a Registered Nurse. She told me a little about her family and I told her a little about mine.
Once I arrived back at school, I had to get some paperwork about my senior project filled out by my mentor. I took her to see the childcare room and to see my daughter. I couldn’t go in there because my daughter would cry. She left after that and I continued the rest of my class. It took a couple of weeks for us to meet again.
