  38. moved back in then.
  39. So I was hearing mountain home again, and I spent
  40. my 9th 10th 11th control grades here in Mountain Home.
  41. So mainly my high school years.
  42. But I've always been considered the the new girl, and
  43. it was kind of hard.
  44. That part was kind of hard for me to make
  45. new friends and stuff because I was just always the
  46. new girl and, you know, it's hard before people ever
  47. knew when there's people that were born and raised there,
  48. and they have a lot of friends and click.
  49. So it was a struggle.
  50. But, um, I found I found friends everywhere he went,
  51. and I'm glad to say that and my family that
  52. I'm close to will definitely be my twin brother because
  53. he has been by my side through it all.
  54. And he knows exactly we live the same life pretty
  55. much, and he just always is understanding, because he was
  56. right there, too.
  57. And another person that's close to me is my Aunt
  58. McHale in a color Rooney.
  59. And she's She's only like two years older than me.
  60. So we've always gotten along and we're really close because,
  61. you know, I was living with her when I lived
  62. with my grandpa because that's his daughter.
  63. And then my best friend through high school was Trinity
  64. Simino, and she was my neighbor and it was a
  65. really good relationship, and we're just best friends forever, and
  66. my goals would be right now.
  67. My first goal would to be to get a driver's
  68. license, and then my second goal would be to buy
  69. a car with my own money, and then my third
  70. would be hopefully to Goto College to be a dental
  71. hygienists because that's just been my dream for the longest
  72. time is to, I don't know.
  73. I just really like teeth.
  74. And focus is this seems like a really good career
  75. for me.
  76. Eso and then my fourth goal would be to just
  77. be happy and fulfilled with my life.
  78. My my work experience.
  79. I got my first job when I was 14 at
  80. L. Herod Arrow here in tone, and after about a
  81. year of working there, I quit because it just wasn't
  82. working on, and my second job was when I was
  83. 16 in the summer in South Dakota.
  84. It was just a summer job.
  85. So I only worked there for a couple of months.
  86. And then my third job was Wendy's here in town.
  87. That was when I was 17 and that didn't go
  88. too well just because of the managers and employees.
  89. But, um, right now I'm working at Albertsons and the
  90. fresh cut department, and I love it there so much
  91. like it's a just the best job I've ever had,
  92. and I've been succeeding and I'm happy you.
  93. So that's all that matters.
  94. Um, my education.
  95. I have been everywhere.
  96. I've been to so many different schools.
  97. So but for my high school for my high school
  98. years, I have been here in mountain home in the
  99. Mountain Home High school for ninth and 10th grade, and
  100. then my June in the beginning of my junior year,
  101. I got transferred to Bennett because of the anxiety that
  102. I had and how much presenting.
  103. They wanted us to dio in front of the class
  104. and I would literally have panic attacks.
  105. So I I talked Teoh, my principal, and they got
  106. me transferred to Bennett like a soon as possible.
  107. And it's been It's been amazing at Bennett because I
  108. was struggling and I really feel like if I didn't
  109. get the chance to be infinite, that I'm probably would
  110. have dropped out from all the anxiety that some of
  111. the classes gave me with the public speaking and presentations
  112. like, it was really hard for me.
  113. So I'm just so grateful that I got the chance
  114. to be in Bennett and be a part of Bennett
  115. you like.
  116. It's just great, and my skills would be I'm a
  117. very hard worker, like I take my job seriously any
  118. job that I've ever had.
  119. I've taken it so seriously because, like, I'm not going
  120. to stand there and have someone pay me and through
  121. me, just just stand there.
  122. You know, like, I'm gonna prove myself and prove that
  123. I'm worth that money.
  124. And I've noticed that that's something that just comes natural
  125. to me just to be a hard worker.
  126. And not a lot of people are.
  127. I've noticed.
  128. Um, I also am efficient at my job.
  129. I've learned how to be fast, but it's also good
  130. quality. And that really matters, cause you could just do
  131. something really fast and will just turn out like, not
  132. good. Or you can do something really slow and make
  133. it look perfect.
  134. But it doesn't need to be perfect.
  135. It just seems to be good quality and a good
  136. time. And I'm reliable at my job.
  137. All of my jobs, I'm reliable.
  138. I don't call in, and that's pretty much it.
  139. I'm there to show up, and I'm there to do
  140. my job.
  141. In my worth, I'm really honest and I'm chest worthy
  142. like all just you know, any question you have all
  143. answer it honestly, and I don't have a problem being
  144. myself in being honest with myself.
  145. So that's a good quality that not everyone has and
  146. kind of, ah, quality that is hard to find in
  147. other people.
  148. I've noticed for myself at least.
  149. And I'm also really good at listening and retaining information
  150. because, um, I've just noticed I can I can listen,
  151. I can pick up on it and I can do
  152. it. So I mean, and also, I'm a team player.
  153. So, like, I've I know what it feels like to
  154. have to do all the work and get left with
  155. all of everyone else's dishes.
  156. And this not so I've always made it a point
  157. to, you know, I wouldn't want to be put in
  158. that position, so I'm not gonna put that person in
  159. that position.
  160. I'm gonna help them out, and I'm gonna, you know,
  161. just be like, cause I've never looked at it as
  162. we're on different levels.
  163. I looked at it as you know, we're a team,
  164. and I'm gonna help you if you help me.
  165. And even if you don't help me, I'm still like
  166. I'm still catch myself doing other people's jobs just because
  167. just because I want to just because I'm a team
  168. player, that's really it.
  169. I I don't know why, but that's just the way
  170. I am and you know someone else isn't going to
  171. do it.
  172. I'll do it.
  173. I'll do.
  174. I don't care because you know that's my job and
  175. I take my job seriously.
  176. And if that person doesn't want to do it, I
  177. will do it.
  178. Just a show.
  179. People that like, you know, I can take care of
  180. it and I'm a team player and I can I
  181. can do this for that person And it's just not
  182. hard for me to think about just to help other
  183. people out in the work environment, because I know what
  184. it's like to be all by yourself and be left
  185. everything. And I'm just Yeah, and my senior quote would
  186. be The night is still young and so are we.
  187. And I picked that one because it really spoke to
  188. me because, um, we're all graduating and I think we
  189. should live our life right now right now, because this
  190. is the youngest will be and this is our chance
  191. to do it.
  192. And so the night is young and so are we.
  193. So let's go And that's end of my presentation.
  194. Thank you for listening
