1). I made time which seemed to be a problem for some other students.
2). a. AE-/P+
b. I met all of the "P considerations", I had two 3D cardboard props, and four published sources that were referenced.
3).What worked for me was the order in which I went because I got to see some examples while i still got to present so I could get it over with.
4). The thing that did not work for me was the projector blinking on an off the entire time that i was presenting which made it hard to focus and explain the content.
5). I think my answer #2 will be something to do with technology and the change that architecture has undergone because of it.

January:Extra Blog
This month was very different from the others because this month I was helping my mentor move out of the building that the firm was located. This affected my independent component because the volunteer hours that I was working were not completely relevant to architecture.

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?
-Before the break i sprained my ankle pretty bad which resulted in a brief pause in my internship because the building itself is two stories with several flights of stair. My parents wanted me to rest and to have a quicker recovery so that I may continue ASAP.
2. What was the most important thing you learned from what you did and why? What was the source of what you learned?
- Communication is very important in architecture because as the architect you must contact the different types of engineers in order to make sure that the building that you are designing is a safe and durable structure.
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?
-Brooks Cavin is a founding principal of Claremont Environmental Design Group, Inc. He is a licensed architect and has worked in the Southern California area for over 30 years.
