Hours worked: 7
Total amount of Hours: 35
Yesterday I did not physically go to my WLE but I did do work from my home. I spent the time working hard and using my time effectively. I started working at 9 am and finished at 4 pm. The things that I did was type up a bunch of information that I'm going to need in the future.
The progress on my project was not the best but I'm getting more done and just looking for ways to do the website without having to use a school computer. Luckily I talked to Araceli who did a website last year and asked how she did hers and she gave me a website that allows people to make their own website for free. I visited the website and started to look for the one that I felt would be the best for the church but there were a few so I have to think about it. I also typed up a lot of information that I'm going to be using on the website to make it simpler to transfer on to the webpage. So this week was pretty easy but time consuming because I had to do a lot of typing.

2009 WLE Post #6
Hours/day: 3.5
Total Amount of Hours: 29 Hours
I was not able to go to my WLE on Monday because it is my mentor's day off. Luckily I did a lot of hours on Wednesday from last week and I also went in to help a little on Sunday's service. On Sunday I help with some tech stuff. I was there from 10 am to 1:30 pm. I did not do much I just displayed a power point presentation and did a few adjustments to it because some things were missing. That's all I did that day.
Displaying a power point was not new to me because of done it a bunch of times. I really liked displaying it because it was pretty fun and the only hard thing is that you really have to pay attention to what people are saying in order to know exactly when to change the slide. I learned that no matter how hard you try and if you have not given it a run through before you're going to mess up even a little. I plan on continuing to help in any way possible and that way I will benefit from every thing that I'm doing because I get more knowledge and experience.

WLE 2009 Post#5
On Wednesday, March 11 I got to my WLE at 9:30 in the morning and got out at 9 pm. Now I have a total of 25 hours and 30 minutes. I didn't do very much, but I did do some very productive things. My mentor was very busy so she was in and out of the office. When she was gone I would have to answer phone calls. I also look at a website that my mentor really likes and would like for me to get some ideas from. I also gathered information to start working on the website that will be my final product. I also participated on two meetings and participated in another program for kids to be active.
What I'm experiencing is new because I had never worked in an office before and it's actually interesting to work in one. It seems like I learn something new a lot of the time. This week I had a chance to answer phones and I noticed that I had to answer it in a very polite and professional way instead of the way I ususally pick up my cell phone or house phone. I also learned that in meetings you have to be patient and hear everything that others our saying and if you are going to say something you really have to think it out before saying it. I also learned that this church is willing to have activities for the community children to be healthy and active. I also learned that the program that is trying to keep children active needs more kids of any age to participate or at least go and help out every now and again.

2009 WLE Post #4
Worked: 8 hours
Total: 14 hours
This week I went to my internship in the afternoon because the Pastor's office was getting painted. I got there at 12:30pm hoping that the office was painted so that I could help out with other things. Unfortunately when I got there the office was still not completely painted. So I stayed there for two hours helping move things around and put things where they are suppose to go. Luckily on Saturday last week I was asked to go to the retreat that they were having to take pictures so that we can use them for other things that will be happening in the church. When I went on Staurday there were not very many people helping out so I started helping set up tables, chairs, food, and drinks as well. Then I took pictures of the participants and the activities that they were doing. I spent six hours helping out that day.
Working in an office is very different to working in activity room or in a different place that isn't as busy. There's a lot of people coming in and out trying to talk to the Pastor. It's also pretty fun because I get to know people and I'm allowed to do more things than in last year's WLE. What suprises me is that I'm being able to do many things instead of only doing one thing. I will start to come up with ideas for the website I will be doing and get them ready to show my mentor.
