LADIES AND GENTLEMEN . . . WELCOME TO THE 2014 THE CIRCLE OF ILIMA FASHION SHOW!

So this week was finally Orientation week. We've been waiting for this. Practicing every morning, lunch and after school everyday. On Tuesday morning, I wasn't really feeling nervous about speaking in front of a crowd since I knew my lines (ok maybe I might stubble and stutter a bit but girl, I actually memorized my lines). But then when I got on that stage to do the fashion show, I was scared. I kept holding my hands together and moving them around because they were obviously shaking out of fear. So I messed up a little bit but good thing it wasn't noticeable. Just when I thought I got this in a roll, the big problem came. So I got a canker sore on my tongue on after Tuesday. If you noticed that my lips were chapped and looked dry, well its because I've been dehydrated. The sore made it hard for me to speak, eat, and drink water. When we practicing on Wednesday, it hurt like a female dog. Then Thursday came and I started worrying because we were going to present at morning and night and it might affect the presentation. But I just sucked it up and tried to numb the pain by sucking on some ice. While doing the presentation, I learned that if my mind isn't on the pain then it won't hurt as much. But then orientation passed and I was so glad that I didn't mess up big time. Phew! I actually enjoyed the questioning portion of the presentation. lol, maybe I just enjoyed walking around a bunch of sixth graders. But seriously though, the same people kept asking questions. The tour I actually think I did a pretty good job. A lot of people kept saying they had people with stupid questions but I actually got a really nice group that barely asked any questions.

My highlight of the orientation was backstage when all of us weren't on. We just kept messing around and trying to scare each other. We were going to do bloody Mary but we just kept messing up and it ended up being funny. When Kevin came back out, he was all like "UGH, guys I messed up" and he was sitting on the stage with his head in his hands. Ok so it sounds mean but dude it was pretty funny because it wasn't that big of a deal. My lowlight of the orientation was obviously getting a canker sore. It seriously hurt. It affect my eating and drinking habits and I was so sad because I love food (lol). 

The lesson learned this week is ORAL CARE IS IMPORTANT! Ok so yes I do brush my teeth twice a day, everyday. But girl after this bad experience with this canker sore I am now going to do a full on oral hygiene with the flossing, mouth wash and tongue brushing and everything!
