Smart Girl; Smart Choice
To be flat out honest when hearing about the service hours with various organizations I was in a mix of emotions. Mostly I was questionable with how many hours, with who, where is the location, and why did I sign up for this class. But when the organizations came to class and I had heard each individually about what organization they represented and what there purpose was I was excited that these were the organizations we could choose from. Personally I had a few in mind that I favored over the others, and was glad that Smart Girl was still available. Hearing the presentation about the organization gave me a flashback to my own days of Middle School; and how much I hated it. Being a Tomboy through-out Middle School I was picked on and the only thing I wanted at that age was acceptance. Hearing that this organizations focus was to fix the era of girl cruelty and thinking of treating one another I was more than happy to be apart of it. Having a sister who is in the eighth grade and has her own share of madness with girls, which has changed a vast amount since my days in Middle school, I was excited to see if I could have skills to help her with her problems. The thing I am most excited about is meeting new people, and having more skills to help others.

What a great post, Jaidy! Smart Girl is lucky to have someone who can relate to the experiences of middle school girls. I am eager to read upcoming posts as you get more experience with the organization.
