Journal 10

1. Description. What happened in your project this week? What did you do? Experience?
Well I have been sick with a viral infection similar to mono so I didn't volunteer much this week. I did go for a few hours on Thursday but I left early as I was extremely tired. When I was there I talked with a guy named Sam for a little bit about how he is getting a job here soon. Then 10 minutes later he was harassing a handicapped man for having to use the women's bathroom since that was the only handicapped accessible bathroom. He actually punched him and they fought for a little before getting kicked out. I don't know what's been going on lately, a little musk in the air possibly? I haven't even seen a quarrel until these last two weeks. I left shortly after because I was exhausted.

2. Interpretation. What did you learn from your project this week? About the project? About the issue? About yourself?
I really experienced the diversity of the situation of homelessness and poverty. While one man is working hard but just can't make enough to get by another man was bragging that he gets all these things for free. It just gave me more to think about when writing my next chapters.

3. Evaluation. How would you evaluate your work on the project this week? What grade would you give yourself? Are you accomplishing the objectives of the project? Your personal objectives?
Well I can't really say I did much this week as I don't really have much work done. I really need to step up my game this week and get some extra hours in. I will need to pick up a few more a week if I am going to make the required amount by the end of the project. I have worked on my Chapter 3 some and I need to get the surveys out to the Listening House at the beginning of the week and analyze them at the end of the week. I feel like I am accomplishing the objectives of my project but I need to step it up a few in order to get it done in time at the quality I want.
