What People See

So far, everything in my life is in order. I finished my gold award project (going to get a gold award next month), been accepted to Wartburg College, have been awarded for volunteer work at Sioux City Public Museum, got good grades, recieved a scholorship from good grades, and is now a Student of the Week at West High. How is that possible? What do other people see in me that I don't? Would they know that I don't act like that at home? That I have bad habits and stuff? Would they even care? What kind of potential do they see in me that I don't see; that is rare in teenagers. Is it caring? Is it leadership skills? What is it? Would I make a huge difference when I grow up? Would I become famous? Would everyone know who I am? Would they know that I'm just a normal girl that is in Girl Scouts, volunteers, gets good grades, and have a normal day life, only juggling through activities?

I didn't try to be a show off. I'm just trying to do everything as innocently as I can. Just like what the Girl Scout Promise says. I live through the Girl Scout Promise my whole life, that it becomes a habit to do all those activities to help others. Just last weekend, I helped with the Glow Out Party for Girl Scouts by helping out with activities and entertain young Girl Scouts. Would other people do that? There really is a joy in volunteering; those people make me laugh and I'm glad to be a positive influence to those younger girls. What's a big deal about that? I volunteer daily and that's how I do as a living. Otherwise I'll be coped up in a house, trapped and have nothing to do, and will have an irritant mode all the time. I would probably be in an irritant mode after a long day of volunteering, but it depends if people treat me with respect or not. I just don't see how I'm different than other people and recieve a big honor like I'm a superhero. This is how I'm raised; I'm goody-goody-two-shoes.
