Reflection 
Observing the work of my mentor was fun because I felt like I was a dentist too. Seeing him work looks like it was easy, but I know that it is not. It was a great experience learning things about teeth even if I am not yet in college. What I observed is that people will be nice to you, if you are nice to them. Just like my mentor, he is very nice to everyone that is why his patients are like his friends. Personally, I am a shy typed person, I do not communicate with the people who I do not really know, but then this capstone project needs to be completed. So, I learned that if want to do something on your own, you need to be independent and get out of your comfort zone. You will not learn if you keep on depending on to someone else. There was one challenge that I needed to solve, and that was time management. Doing this project definitely needs time and sacrifice. I met with my mentor every Saturday, and I had to stay in the clinic for 8 hours, just like my mentor and his co-workers. One Saturday, my friends asked me if we could hangout, I really wanted to go, but then I needed to finish my hours. Capstone project was a good experience, because you will meet new people. Not only about meeting new people, but also because of the things you will learn. I learned about procrastination, patience and prioritizing things. It was a great opportunity to have this project.
