First Meeting with Supervisor

I finally had my first meeting with my supervisor. It took me a while because we planned a few meetings before and it ended up not happening for various of reasons. First I made an appointment for the (date here), and in the email it said that I had to be at 10.00 in A105. But I didn't read the email properly, so I though I had to come to A105 sometime that morning. I ended up going at 10.20, but she wasn't there, I reread the email to see if I had forgotten something, and (de rest spreekt voor zich). I emailed her and we made another appointment for the day before yesterday (date). But I went home sick, and my friend offered to go to Ms. Trumic and tell her that I was sick, but the lesson before (mentor) everybody had to clear and clean their lockers and take everything home, she forgot to go to Ms. Trumic.

So I thought that I was scared that I was not able to meet her before the holidays. We also had a substitute for Economics and Bussines that day, and we had Ms. Lira as out cover teacher. Ms. Lira is also the head of HI. I explained to her what my problem was, and she kindly offered to 'act' like my supervisor and tell me what my next steps would be. I made a list of things I have to do, and was suppost to record this list in my supervisor log, but it is too long so I just made it an Appendix. My list of steps that I have to do now is called Appendix 14. Then later that day I saw Ms. Trumic walking out of a classroom, I went up to her and explained to about how I was sick and asked a friend to tell her, but she forgot and etc., and she understood and she suggested that we could have a meeting now. I was fine with it because it was all the way at the end of the day and we had to wait for a little bit anyway. It only lasted around 5 minutes. She told me that I was on track, and was way ahead of her other students she is guiding. I explained what my idea for my PP was (making a Mechanical Clock), she told me that if there are any questions during the holidays I can always email her. She asked what my plans are roufly going to be, I said that I hoped to finish the product during the holidays and start the essay when I get back. We didn't make a new appointment because the next meeting will be after the holidays and we'll get a new time-table, so we don't know yet when we'll be available. I recorded both my meetings in my Supervisor log which is now Appendix 16
That evening I was home I checked my email. She send me an email about how I missed my appointment the day before, and suggested another time that day, but I didn't see the email before because it was send 9.00 that morning. So I missed that meeting as well. I have also put all the emails send back and forth between us here.
