I used critical thinking by thinking about what I was going to do. I though about what I was going to do ten times before doing that because that is the only way to get things right the first time, without mistakes. Creativity was a hard part to manage to get all the parts of the Capstone project done, but with my brilliant ideas and creativity, I did manage to do it right and get it done nicely, and creatively.
I not only gained experience from drifting but I did gain trust with people like my mentor to trust them with things that I would expect not to ever tell. I gained knowledge of how to drift, use a go kart, how to turn a wheel, know the difference between the gas and brake and to not press both of them at the same time, and most importantly gained how to NOT break a bone in my body, because I almost did and it was not very fun. It showed me that drifting is not a good thing and that knowing what your doing is better than doing something without knowing what your doing to actually hurt yourself.
There was many challenges that I faced, It would take me days to write them all out on here, but I am going to tell you a few that are probably the most important in what I was doing. First one was time management. It was very hard because as you know already, I have a job at IN-N-Out Burger and I work at least 25 hours a week, so trying to fit the mentor hours in was a real challenge. Second one was Limited skills, this was very hard because most of the time, I did not know what I was doing and it was very hard for me to figure out what was going on. It was defiantly a big challenge for me. Last but not least, working around the mentors schedule was a very big struggle because he was not always there and when the time was right for me to see him, he would be busy and vise versa.
Eventually, I managed to finish the project and do a very nice job in the end! It was very fun at k1 speed and I would definitely be back for more fun! Got my 25 hours finished and looking forward to see what's next. Again, thanks to everyone who was there to help me.
