Midpoint Reflection Question
How has the internship been the same as and/or different than your expectations?
My internship is kind of the same cause i still have to come up with qeustion and then go interview people.
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?
I learn how to transcribe and i learn how to do a proper interview and i learn the exprience of a journalist, school is different its just going to class in do your homework.
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?
I have a great relationship with my mentor and my co-workers we work great together.
What challenges at the internship have you faced that you have overcome and how did you overcome them?
Well its going up to people in the street and interview them thats was a great challenge for me and i guess i overcome that in a good way of not being affraid to go up to anybody.
What challenges have you faced in school as a result of the altered schedule and how are you handling them?
Well the only challenge with school i think its that we get a lot of homework and dont have enough time to do them but i guess i just have to manage my time a little more better.
What goals are you working to accomplish during the remainder of the internship?
I dont know i guess to do a good job and work really good with my mentor and my co-workers.
What new things have you learned about New York City?
Nothing still the same just that people is very rude in the City thats all.

Today was and ok day it was only me and Alex. We did about 8 interviews but we was aiming for higher success but i guess that didnt happen but everything went well. The topic was about the community still but this time it was going to be for Metro news not daily news, which was pretty interesting and we got some pretty good answer from the kids that we interviewed.
