Before I journeyed off to New York I competed in the Miss Memphis Pageant and scored two scholarships! Yay! After which I celebrated my 24th birthday with my family and friends in Memphis, TN. At the end of the month, I ventured to New York City, which was full of snow! New York City was a blast! I had an awesome time at the Students for Liberty Conference. At the end of the conference, Students for Liberty was founded as an organization. I had a great time as a lecturer and even spent time with my friend, Heather! By the end of the month I received an invite to the 2008 World Youth Congress in Quebec City, Canada! I’m so excited. I also received news that I was a top ten finalist for the Harris Wofford Award for Outstanding Youth Service. I owe my 4-H agent Sharon Tubbs and professor, Dr. Goldstone so much for their support and nomination.
