Be True to You

Forty days until state!!! I am so excited for this opportunity! It has been loads of work but I know it will pay off. One of the things that I really have been working hard on is my platform, "Be True to You." My goal is to help youth find what they are passionate about and really shine through that. Theatre is something I have a passion for. This is where I met Jayne Luke, a great influence on my life. She valued everyone's opinion and was always kind. I always wanted to be around her because I felt important. I know what theatre has done for me as well as my friends and knew that I could influence others through it. I directed a neighborhood play in hopes to give the youth an opportunity that would boost their confidence. It was a success! It was incredible opportunity to see each person grow and have so much fun with it. I grew to love and appreciate each youth. I definitely want to do another one soon!

Yesterday I volunteered at the share a smile triathlon. It is such a great program where they raise money to give free dental reconstruction to those who cannot afford it. My family and I have been involved in it for years and have loved giving back. I finished off the day by going to "Dancing under the Stars" at the Scera Shell with one of my good friends. The Scera is such a great supporter of the Miss Orem pageant and its great to see all their great productions. This one was especially good. Dancers such as Jenna Johnson, Malece Miller, and Travis Wall graced the stage with the best dances I have ever seen.

School started this week. I have a feeling that high school is going to be great!

Love Always,
