1.
What three lessons
were most helpful for you to see, and why?
a.
Personally, the three
most helpful lessons I attended included Ian Kam’s physical therapy
presentation, Ariami Garcia’s neonatal nursing presentation, and Natalie
Bryne’s effects of the fashion industry presentation. Ian’s presentation was
full of information, but it was still very entertaining and he kept his
audience engaged. His presentation felt natural and very well put together.
Ariami’s presentation on being a specialty nurse interested me because it
helped me think of the possible specialties I could specialize in as a nurse.
Natalie’s presentation was more of a cautionary “heads up.” I realized that
solid research is the solid backbone of your presentation. Without solid
research that flows and is understandable, your presentation is a mess. I had
no idea what was going on in Natalie’s presentation, but it definitely gave me
insight on what a good presentation should feel like.

List
one thing that you learned about the senior project in interviews that will
help you get off to a good start?
a.
Passion
is something every senior and teacher I have talked to seems to stress. I have
learned that in order for your project to be interesting, helpful, and
ultimately enjoyable to yourself, it has to be a topic you are genuinely
interested in or passionate about. Choosing a topic that is interesting and
will challenge me will motivate me to start.
3.
What
topic(s) are you considering, and why?
a.
I am
considering nursing as my senior topic. More specifically, I want to focus on
nurse practitioners. I have always been interested in hospital settings,
especially ER’s. Never wanting to go through medical school to become a doctor,
I decided being a nurse was the next best thing. It wasn’t until this year that
I explored the different levels one could reach after becoming a nurse.
4.
What EQ
do you think might be interesting to consider in guiding a project like this?
(Please don't worry about any sort of formula...we want this question to come
from your genuine interest).
a.
“What
is the most important skill / quality a nurse practitioner must have in order
to effectively do his / her job?”
5.
What
are some ideas you have about finding summer mentorship?
a.
I a
planning to apply for a volunteer position at The Greater El Monte Community
Hospital this summer since I grew up in El Monte and I have made connections
with the nurses over the past years. I am also planning to apply and talk to
many hospitals around my area just to have options since I think it might be difficult
to be mentored.
