2/3 Done. AHMEN.

Last week I finished up my second interview. Thankfully I got lucky again and another one of my best friends was available for me to interview. Her name is Shannon Watkinson and has been a dance teacher for three years now. This totally helped me out on uncovering my topic which is “Choreographer/ Dance Teacher”. I had no challenges before,during, or after the interview. i will admit I felt a little nervous but that feeling went away very quickly once she arrived at my house. I got all my questions answered and remained calm. I actually had a great time with her (as always). Shannon really opened up to me and I actually learned a lot more about her dancing career than I already suspected. I asked her questions mostly based around what inspires her to keep dancing and why does she love her job so much. You can tell she is extremely passionate about her job. She has a very outgoing personality so I really felt like I could be myself and she didn't reject answering any questions like my first interviewee did. I realized just putting on a smile and actually really listening to your interviewee helps a lot. Only one more left sophomores!

I see your 2nd interview went well and that you managed to do better than your last one. And yes AHMEN that you and most of your classmates are done with their 2nd interview. I guess doing your 1st interview gave you alot of confidence to do this one. Well I hope you keep up the good work and that you do even better than you did this time. Good luck Stupak.

I couldn't agree anymore, thank God there's only one more left.
I'm happy to see you're doing good, and that your second interview went better than your first.
And yes, putting on a smile changes everything..
In social situations, when you don't know someone and they approach you, you'd be uncomfortable or curious. It's a natural thing, everyone's the same. You'd wonder who they were, what they wanted, you know?
I don't know if it applies to you or if it will, because this is usually only relevent if you're interviewing a stranger.

You're really lucky to have one of your best friends to interview! Getting someone like that really relieves all the stress and pressure of interviewing somebody you don't even know. I am glad that these nerve wrecking interviews are almost over, good luck and everything whatnot yes with your next interview Stupak!
