Stepping out...

I have decided that I want to push myself and step out of my comfort zone. I have a list of a few things I want to do. They wont be easy, in fact they are going to take a lot of work but I am going to stick with them and follow through. Even if it means pulling my hair out a little on the way...

My Little list of things I want to do:

1. Get better at public speaking!!!! This is a very important one since majority of things that will be in this list require public speaking. I am really terrible at it and I want so much to improve. I get nervous and play with my hair and I stutter....I am going to make a point to not procrastinate on writing my speeches then practice! practice! practice! everyday! (Hint: remember to pull my hair back the day of the speech so I dont touch it!!!)

2. Be in charge of organizing a Key Club event: This one I have kinda already started. I will start meeting with our key club advisor this week to start planning our towns annual kiddies parade. Our key clubs biggest event we put on. I am both nervous and excited about taking on such a huge job but I believe Im up to the task. Its gunna take a lot of work but it will push me which is what I want.

3. Run for NHS Vice President: This one I cant do until the end of the school year but its something I would really like to do. I am currently historian in our nhs and would like to step up into a bigger role.

4. Run for Senoir Class Rep: This is another one I cant do til the end of the school year but I have always wanted to be apart of student council but my fear of public speaking has held me back.


5. Run for Clackamas County Dairy Princess Ambassador: This one is by far the most important to me. It is something I have wanted for as long as I can remember and I am finally old enough to run. I was offically asked by the clackamas county dairy women to run about a month ago and I couldnt have been more thrilled. I am really nervous about running because this is something I have dreamed about since I was little plus I have to memorize a speech....As soon as I get my topics from the dairy women I am going to get right to work on my speech because I really want to do well.
Mom went with me on saturday night to the Oregon State Dairy Ambassador contest to watch so I will know how everything goes so if i win for clackamas county I will know how the state contest works for when I run.

 Me and my friend Jessica who was last years Oregon Dairy Princess who was first clackamas county dairy princess. Hope to learn a lot from her.



I love working with dairy cows so much and even though being the clackamas county dairy princess would be a huge time commitment I would enjoy every minute of it. First things first I need to work on my public speaking. On top of that I need to trust in God, pray, and remember that no matter what happends God has a plan for me.
