Learning curve

I have to admit , I was a bit lazy this week reason being the weather. I arrived late at work for a couple of times (just 2 days) but luckily my superiors were also late so I did have any trouble with them.
On Monday we went to a school in Kayamandi Makupula High School for measuring existing toilets for staff and students and I had to draw the plans of the toilet layouts from scratch. At least I could get something done because I finished the work within a day, and my supervisor was a bit impressed. We then had a meeting with a guy from Cobra, giving us guides and advice on which sanitary products will suite this project. We then had to prepare a finishing schedule on Excel and then had to be done on the plans I had done on AutoCad. This project is not so big, so our superiors decided to hand it to us to deal with most of it so that we can learn more and be able to deal with bigger projects next time.Its has been quite a bit of a tough learning curve because some of the stuff we are dealing with are new to us as students but we getting assistance from our colleagues so far.
From yesterday till today, I have been busy with paint colour combinations of the Blue Downs Nuwe Begin project. I have been given a task to decide on which colours to use to paint the houses of the Blue Downs project. According to my supervisor I am doing well so far, there are certain rules that I have to follow though and the whole thing will come to place.
Despite the weather its was it was a great week with a huge learning curve.

Will upload images of my work soon.
