And so it goes....

So this week hasn't been much different than last week, been really busy as usual being working on two different buildings and the way that our firm goes about situations are really eye opening. My mentor says to try to make a wise decision as quickly as possible and nt to dwell on it else you'll be changing your mind all the time and its always your clients who takes that role anyway:).

I've been receiving more work from my mentor and I feel that his becoming more confident in me and ayesha. It feels really good knowing that he trusts us.

Each day I never fail to learn something knew from my mentor. He helps us out whenever we need it and makes sure we okay and feel comfortable at all times. He is very understanding and has our best interests in mind.

We are just waiting for approval on a project they were busy with before ayesha and I have arrived and then we'll be off to more sites to make sure that everything is going as planned

Will keep you posted ;)

Work stresses

Wow what a week it has been. It was so busy at the office trying to meet deadlines. When working so hard the days just go by so fast.

Even though work has been really stressful my mentor will always try to ease the tension with funny remarks, yet we never fail on learning something new each day.

This week I've been busy with sections and elevation on 2 different buildings. Its really feels good when your mentor explains things to you and you totally know what it is and can really follow what going on, I must say thanx to my first year lectures for that hey :). I've learned about a few new materials(well new to me) and how to work with them in some interesting ways.

Work has been stressful yet not unpleasant , I really enjoy working at Nazeer Seria Architects it just has such a good vibe about it...

Will keep you posted ;)

Work, work, work :)

I have been working for the past month now and I must say I'm really enjoying myself...
My mentor and fellow colleagues are really a pleasure to work with since there is never a dull moment in the office....
I am working with Ayesha Jaffer and I must say its so nice working with someone u know well.

Everyone is always willing to help out when ever we need it. Each day my mentor will give us a talk on construction, detail, finishes or whatever comes to mind at that moment....

So far I've done internal elevations and sections. I've also been to site visits and in site meetings. Its so cool to know what industry is really like and also to see your name on drawing going off to a client.

Will keep u you posted ;)
