My Sentence oo la la
I fell and got right back up to continue to create a therapy group at Chinquapin to help others can get right back up on their feet even when they believe it's impossible.

Final Post...For Now
Well I want to start off by thanking everyone who gave me advice when I was stressing. IT HELPED SO MUCH!!! Right now I want to talk about my TED Talk. So, I remember when I was preparing for my TED Talk I was starting to get nervous. I practiced and practiced until I felt I had it pretty much memorized. I felt confident in myself and felt that I would do pretty well. I was a little hesitant to tell people about what I went through but I knew it had to be done in order to feel better. The morning of the TED Talk I was starting to get nervous but then I told myself constantly that I knew I had it in me. After telling myself that, I felt amazing. I gave my speech and felt relieved the moment afterwards. I felt as if I did really great and I was proud of myself.
My original project that I planned to do was that I wanted to create a video to show people how to overcome obstacles because I know what it is like to need someone or something to help me go through my situation at home when I was younger. After failing to video tape children at an organization called Boys Town, I didn't know what to do. I started to stress. Then, I started talking to people who helped me recover from this failure. Now, I plan to create a group therapy for Chinquapin. I want to do this because I know several people at Chinquapin who have gone or are going through hardships. I've been through counseling and every time I had a session, I felt like I could fly. The point of this group therapy is to show people that they are not alone in this world. Also to show them that there are many people who go through the same thing and that are willing to help them overcome their struggles.
Susan Davis, Rosita Brooks, Debora Ybara, and Peggy Mahan are the four people that I want to put on my panel. The first person that I want to be a part of my panel is Susan Davis, an amazing teacher at Chinquapin, because she has helped me through so much. She is a great inspiration to me and I feel like she has pushed me to become a better person. She is the most motivational teacher that I have. I feel like she'll advise me to do the right things on my project and let me know when I'm making a mistake. I want her to evaluate how well I express myself. Rosita Brooks is a counselor at my middle school who helped me while I struggled at school. She has a lot of knowledge about how to help people overcome struggles. I want her to help me put together my group therapy and show me how to effectively maintain that group. I want her to evaluate how creative my project is. Debora Ybara is my mentor and works at Texas Children Hospital. I know that I'll stress through this process and that I'll need to someone to help me "de-stress." Because she works in the medical field, I am hoping and praying that she'll have contact with therapists and psychiatrists. I want her to evaluate how realistic my project is. Peggy Mahan is another counselor that has helped me get through high school. She knows almost everything about me. She has worked with Chinquapin so I hope that she'll give me advice about how to put this group together at Chinquapin. I want her to evaluate how effective and useful my group will be.
