WEEK 38

29^th of October -2^nd of November 2012

1^st week back at work feels good to see my colleges, indeed the work was more than I anticipated…

There are still many amendments with the design although we set to be on site early January, but since the year is almost over the clients want everything done and ready before they leave for December break. So we are working overtime to meet the deadline. I was assigned to work on an extension on a car park. This is one of my own small projects that I was given to work on from beginning to completion. Really want to impress my boss. This week was a Archi Cad week since my computer at work didn’t have Auto Cad installed yet, found it challenging to draw council drawings on Archicad but never the less I managed and next week I should have cad and help out with the school’s drawing, I realised how Archicad actual is much faster than AutoCAD in terms of the amount of drawings one can produce within a given time frame.   

WEEK 37

22^nd – 26^th of October 2012

This week I was meant to start back at the office but I was informed that next week I need to be ready to get back to the office since there will be a lot to do, I kind of anxious but excited since I have learnt so much through working under pressure.

WEEK 36

15th- 19^th of October 2012

Yet another week of not going to work, but they hired another young architectural technologist to help with the work load since we have a delaine, for next Friday so this week I was just chilling and worked from home. Still had a small task to do.

WEEK 35

8^th – 12^th of October 2012

I didn’t go to work this week, things in the office have been hectic, and maybe having me around might slow up the work level production. So my Boss gave me time off to work on other things.

WEEK 34

 1^st – 5^th of October 2012

Enjoying being out of the office, we completed all the work on site and all the different class activities on construction and detailing. Thank you to our amazing lectures for helping and making the experience worthwhile and fun but still very educating. The party at the end was rewarding after all the work we all put in towards completing the MIP project. Was sad saying good bye to all my friends next week we all heading back to work and we all looking forward to seeing each other again next year as 3^rd year students.

WEEK 33

24th – 28^th of September 2012

First week back on campus felt good to see all my classmates, we started our MIP work.

This week was tiring but we still have a lot of work to do on the primary school, the weather this week as ok just a few rainy days but nothing stopped productivity. Being on site has never been so fun really enjoying the construction process. On campus we had two talks which were both very interesting, I learnt the various ways one could design a shelter that is both functional and still very appearing. We also had a talk about safety on site in terms of having the proper safety clothes to general site cautions, this week was really worthwhile.

WEEK 31

10^th – 14^th of September 2012

Great week indeed submitted work this week so things in the office have been gone back to the good old days, my boss even got us all a treatJ. I really enjoy it when hard work pays off, but we all know that next week we going back to working long hours and that we work load is not getting simpler as time flies but harder we will only really relax when the construction process starts.  I really admire my boss she is s organized even thou we have so many project in the same time frame she breaks the work down skilfully so we do not neglect not one project regardless of the size of the projects. (True professional)
