Unfortunately it feels like my weeks have become rather repetitive, but the good news is that I think a mentorship is truly on the horizon. After speaking with Ms. Huffman who works for the Frisco Chamber of Commerce and is also a council member, I'm once again very optimistic about the opportunities studying Frisco can offer. I think as long as I remain committed to what drives my interest in local government: my passion for creating positive change on a variety of levels, it will keep my focus polished throughout the rest of the semester and the year. Along with this search for a mentor, I really only anticipate going on one or two more interviews total, but I'm quite interested in asking Ms. Huffman to be my mentor. I still have to consider if growth is a major theme I want to pursue this year, like I have been thus far, but mostly I'm just very excited to get into the routine of having a mentor. Even if it doesn't end up being Ms. Huffman, I'd love for someone to help me think through my major projects and guide me with their expertise through the remainder of my time in ISM, which as this second six weeks comes to an end, seems closer than it's ever seemed before.
