This is ME

The incomplete thoughts and ideas of Laura. This is what goes on inside my head day in and day out. You gotta love it. I do!

Wednesday, April 6

Last night I accepted the 2005 Violet Richardson Award for Excellence in Community Involvement. This award is given out my the Soroptimists International of Langley. Last night I met many influential women and I realize that I would like to be a member of the Soroptimists.

This organization is very involved in the community though helping with the hospital, school programs, cancer funding and supporting women in all areas. It was an honour to receive this award/scholarship from such an influential group.

At the end of the night I ended up talking with the Mayor of Langley for a little while and I now have a meeting with her sometime next month. I think I'm getting the hang of networking.

Well my grandparents left today. I love them so much. Today, before they left, my Grandpa told me that he was proud of me and that coming out here to visit and seeing me accept my award was the only positive time of his year so far. My grandpa doesn't talk about his feelings or show emotion so this meant so much to me.

Today has been a good day.
