The Summer of Change
BY JENIECE TORANZO, MESA, ARIZONA, USA - I would have never thought a few months ago that this would be the summer of change for not just me, but for so many of my classmates. Being on this project has helped so many ways. I have learned to be more outgoing and not as shy. I have learned to open up more about my personal life to others and be ok with it. I believe that this project has helped shape and mold the crew to become more professional and adult. To learn and take responsibilities for our actions. I think we have learned to become stronger persons than we thought we could ever be.
I love being on this project and I wouldn't change it for anything. I must admit, I am getting more nervous as the days are coming closer to our departure. This is a huge project that we are taking on and I believe that we have the skills and talents to make it successful. I can't wait and I am so excited to able to have the opportunity to go. I just hope we have enough funding and resources. I went shopping for make up and supplies yesterday for the actors. I hope I got the right colors because it took me a couple of hours to find what I have now. I hope I don't forget anything. I hate that feeling when you leave for a trip and you have that nagging feeling that you forgot something or forgot to turn something off. I hope none of us get that feeling because it will be harder to replace it and it's not like it's a hop, skip, and a jump away! It's half way across the world!
I pray everything will go smoothly. Pray with me too.:) I think two is better than one. The more the better.
