We learn a lot when we put ourselves out there! I was dared, to try out for a contest, Bay Festival. I was told I probably wouldn't win, but we would get to ride in the huge city parade and win a free chicken dinner. I didn't like doing it, no talent that year and I played the guitar, ooh, well. NO swimsuit either... Strange. You won swimsuit..Congrats! The best part was the parade. My boss at work, who dared me was my<br />father's bf growing up. I learned a lot from the experience. The fancy tea, we went to and were interviewed. I was asked questions...what is your Fav movie...should of said, "Gone With The Wind" I said "Star Wars"....I told the truth, not what they wanted to hear. The winner was a Senior in college, the prize a scholarship. I learned I don't like<br />stuffy gray haired ladies, who are so prim and proper, they set the example of snotty snobs. I know not everyone is like that, but I never forgot their manner and seeing them roll up their eyes, when they noticed another girl, not acting proper. I learned I am not cut out of this cloth! It was fun, met new friends~Ellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070952447277684613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6022707527413766052.post-20421683017569321462010-04-30T17:56:23.020-07:002010-04-30T17:56:23.020-07:00Good for you!
