StuCo/Leadership

So about over a week ago, my dad's friend Jeff (the principal at Plattsmouth High School) asked me to help him talk about student council and leadership to some international teachers. I immediately said yes, I LOVE student council.

Jeff and I have a long history of student council. He used to be the executive director of NASC, the volunteer organization I am a member of. He used to be the advisor at PHS too.

ANYWAYS.

We showed up and I was nervous as hell. I had no idea what to expect. We got there and Jeff introduced me to Dr. Joekel. Hmm.. where have I heard that before? THE NASC HISTORY INFORMATION AREA IN THE LEADERSHIP GUIDES!!!!! holy cow, I felt as if I was in the presence of a celebrity. So slightly in awe after the fact I had already met him THEN realized who he was, I was like I can't screw up this presentation.

Eh, I got a bit nervous, but I felt I did ok. I just didn't know what to talk about. The international teachers were super nice and obviously showed their love for teaching. They all taught either English as a language or Social Studies. They were from South America, Central Europe and India. Talk about cool.

So yeah, that's what I did today.
