Something new everyday.

2 hours down so 5 more to go. 20 hours in total
Three appointment today, three different kind of people. I learn something everytime I go to my mentor and I love it. I already feel the experience of being a mentor and some parts that involves being a counselor. What I learned today? hmm... Well I learned that theres different kind of people that can go to you. As a counselor you accept this a do the best of your capability to help them out. Today on of the appointment was an old man,  he was about 50 plus of age. For that appointment, my mentor told me that some people they wouldn't believe that he's the counselor. But, he respected my mentor when he talks. The second appointment was a guy that used to be part of a gang and used to be in jail. Mr. Nate Nevado told me that when you encounter people like this you have to keep it chill and make sure you dont offend them. The guy told him that he wanted to change and help kids. He wants to get back to help his community. He's already part of a program that helps kids to not go to a path that he took when he was a kid. My mentor told me that always have eye contacts because you dont want to show the person that youre scared. Its making it seem like youre judging them and kind of pushing them away. The last appointment was a guy, pretty young too. He was kicked out of Cal State in the East Bay because he wasnt focus on school. He went from a 4 years to a 2 years school. Well thats what all that happened to my mentor today.
