Midpoint Reflection Questions

How has the internship been the same as and/or different than your expectations? It was kind of what i have expected, i wasn't all that far off, i mean what would you expected from a horse stable.


What is similar and different about the culture of the school environment versus the workplace environment? What new skills have you learned that apply to the workplace? There is a big difference between the culture of my workplace, and the culture of the school. In my work place there isn't this nice person(some teacher) asking you if you want help, in my workplace there is no one to help out if you don't ask.


What kind of relationship do you have with your mentor and co-workers? How have you grown as a result of interacting with professional adults? With the big boss it is just formal, but with my mentor we have a friendly realtionship. We joke and kid around, because my mentor is around my age.


What challenges at the internship have you faced that you have overcome and how did you overcome them? First it was putting a saddel on a horse. i put it upside down three times, but after practice i learned how to put all kinds of saddles(western, english)


What challenges have you faced in school as a result of the altered schedule and how are you handling them? Well the big probelm is homework, and having to come home all tired then do homework. I don't handle them, thats why i have a C in history.


What goals are you working to accomplish during the remainder of the internship? My goals are to improve at handling hhorses, but my bigest dream is to ride a horse pefrectly.


What new things have you learned about New York City? THAT THERE ARE HORSES IN BROOKLYN!!!
