For the Service-Learning\nProject, I worked with Ignite Norfolk to complete the 5 necessary hours. I\nworked alongside Ignite Norfolk first to aid in ODU\u2019s make a difference day on\nSaturday, November 2nd from 9:00am to 1:00 pm. For this event we traveled to\nNarticus the museum and helped to create stations for the children that were\ngoing to come for a tour and activities. Personally, my partner and I made dog\ntoys from old shirts. My second time working with Ignite Norfolk was Thursday,\nNovember 14th from 2:30pm to 4:30pm. This event was Ignite Mentoring. During\nIgnite Mentoring we traveled to a local school to help young kids with their\nhomework and thanksgiving activities after completing their homework. Both\nopportunities I had to work with Ignite Norfolk were both very interesting and engaging.\nI plan to return during my spare time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My community partner\nwas Ignite Norfolk. Their purpose is to enact the preaching\u2019s of God every day,\nnot through preaching but through activities and groups to make the community\nbetter. The creation of Ignite Norfolk was done to focus on parts of the\ncommunity that lacked attention and bring love and positivity to the area. They\nprovide mentorship opportunities, a pantry, worship opportunities and groups to\nspeak and to empower one another. They address all the needs of the community\nlike helping the younger generations, feeding those who need it through the\nfood pantry, an outlet to those who need to talk to someone and empowerment to\nthose who seek it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After completing the\nprojects that I did, I\u2019ve come to realize that I enjoy working with children\nmore than I believed I did before. Even helping them with their homework was\nfun. It was interesting being able to show them tricks to answer problems that\nthey didn\u2019t already know. After completing these projects, I planned to consider\nthe different forms of nursing that include children in the daily activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to the Fall 2019\nsemester I began working towards my CNA license. When working on completing\nyour CNA license you must complete at least 120 hours of clinicals. During\nthese clinicals I worked alongside many elderly people with many different backgrounds\nhelping them to bathe, dress, eat and other activities of daily living which I\nenjoyed. Although after completing the course I knew I didn\u2019t want to work with\nelderly forever. After working with these kids, I still want to pursue a career\nin Nursing although I plan to investigate one that may involve kids as well as\nadults. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My intended Career\nfield is Nursing. More specifically I want to be a Nurse Anesthetist. It\nrelates to the field of nursing because in nursing overall the goal is to help\nsomeone. Although instead of helping the kid\u2019s health wise I was able to help\nthem do their homework and complete some art activities. The service-learning\nwork could relate more to a degree program like Psychology as well as childhood\ndevelopment. Psychology could be an option although It\u2019s not a first. I would\nnot major in childhood development because I don\u2019t think I would want my work\ncentered around working with kids and I enjoy Nursing. I think my parallel\nmajor would be Occupational Therapy or Health Service Administration. I chose\nthese as potential parallel majors because they are still related to the field,\nI currently want to work in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t have a set\namount of time that I study for any class. I study as needed so it depends on\nhow much I understand the material. If I understand what I\u2019m doing, then I\nwon\u2019t study the subject as much and focus on something I understand less. I\nhave started using Khan Academy and other online sources to help me understand\nmy work. Chemistry tutoring has worked well especially before test and helping\nme complete my homework. Over time I realized that I study better in Broderick\nDining Commons alone in a corner rather than in my room. Now after classes are\nover for the day I go to Broderick to study and do homework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I anticipated that in\ncollege I would have to write a lot more papers especially in English. Although\nafter being here for about 14 weeks in my English class I\u2019ve only written 3\nshorts papers. The best resource I have found this semester was the chemistry\ntutoring room. I didn\u2019t find the writing center to be very helpful. I went to\nthe writing center to get help on an assignment in Interpreting the American\nPast. While the people there tried to help, they were also confused on the\nassignment. This semester I learned the ways that I study best. I will use this\nnext semester to study in the way most fit for me from start to finish. 14\nweeks ago, I wish I knew making more friends would be beneficial in the long\nrun to being able to work together on understanding different concepts and\nusing each other as support systems. Recently I\u2019ve made a few new friends and\nwe\u2019ve been able to rely on each other for being helpful in explaining different\ntopics to us so that we all better understand. Having friends in the same major\nand classes makes the days a little bit easier to get through. <\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
