Hey Everyone,
I had my second presentation this weekend and it was okay I suppose. I really wanted it to go well, but the audience was less than favourable. It was presented on the morning of their sleepover after they were up until four in the morning, one of the leaders babies was crying, and the girls were laying on the floor in their sleeping bags. I thought that I could find some inspiration deep within them to want to make a difference in their world, but there was nothing. I felt kind of silly just talking about how much I enjoyed the Forum and how badly I wanted to change things and they just weren't having it. Maybe I effected them sub-consciously, that is what I can hope for right now and maybe I will try again later.
On a happier note tomorrow is World Thinking Day! I am excited to celebrate Guiding and Scouting around the world and I can't wait to proudly wear my uniform, (just like the Facebook event told me too...). Last week I was with my Sparks and we taught them about Thinking Day and Lord and Lady Baden Powell and they were so excited it was adorable and I felt like I really was making a difference. They are just beginning to learn about Guiding and it is kind of fun to see them learning about and getting involved in Guiding around the world. I need to get more involved in my projects because I feel like I am falling behind on my goals. For now on the Forum will take a high priority in my life and I will continue to work hard to accomplish my personal goals to accomplish the Millennium Development Goals.
That's all for now,
Shannon
