The
school board speaking was a success. Everyone did a wonderful job at
representing the ILC. My father and I got there a bit early and were having
trouble figuring out where we had to go, but we found it anyways. I went in and
I heard the voice all around gathered. I looked to my left and saw familiar
faces. I went over and was greeted by my peers that go with me to Richmond. We
started talking about how our day had been and how finals were coming us for
most of us. Some of us, like me, didn’t really have any finals because our AP
testing was over. It’s mostly fun for us now. We got a small idea to do for our
fathers. So we all went and grabbed our fathers to make them sit together and
socialize. *GASP*, I know right? As soon as they all sat down, we left so they
could figure it out on their own. Everyone was all dressed up looking nice, and
we headed off each in our own directions because we all ended up going with our
cohort. I was the speaker of my group, and there was something that I never
caught on to….it was live. I started getting nervous because it wasn’t
really
that mentally prepared for it, so bad that I stood up there with 10-15 seconds
of complete silence, not my high light, but I think I did well. I really liked everyone’s
supportive attitude and I was really grateful to my cohort for helping me out
before I went up there to talk. After the speeches, we went outside to take a
big group photo which Don orchestrated. After which, my peers from high school decided
to get a picture for ourselves since the set up was so nice.
