I am a Leader!

Every Saturday, an event called the "Waterfire" is held here in the evening. The title is pretty much self-explanatory.
This is just a unique architectural church that we happened to see on the way back to our dorms. I am into architecture so this church appealed to me.

I am feeling good and confident today. Earlier, we had a presenter named Jennifer Madden who gave us advice about how to be a good public speaker. She also gave us tips on how to minimize the fears that we have, such as how to breathe in way that calms you down and other tricks. I learned that there are three different types of speeches and at the afternoon session, each and every one of the female students had to present an impromptu-a speech that you give right off the top of your head. Although I am usually not a good public speaker, I absorbed all of the tips and tricks given to give a decent speech that showed me and many others that I do have a strong voice. I can speak my mind and show passion for it as well. This activity impowered me and gave a boost to my confident in fulfilling my role as a leader. Now I know that I can overcome obstacles and things are not as scary as it may seem if you gain the courage to face up to it.
