About Me - A Proud Day in My Life

I am writing this exclusive post to let you know about what happened to me about a week ago. Actually, scratch that - not "exclusive" no! But I figured that I don't write anything on About Me - well, I don't write too much - just because I figured that nobody would be really interested.

But here I am, with this document,explaining what happened to me a week ago.

I suppose it all started when I got shortlisted in a Ghost Story Competition, after which I got a "merit certificate" on assembly in front of the whole school. And if I wasn't proud! I tell you now that I don't like any unneeded attention - but I was one proud thing to know that I had been shortlisted.

It felt as though I have gone through the first chapter in my life; oh, all the other "steps" in the past ten years were just very small paragraphs, but soon one chapter was full - and how blissfull I was that day!

Then, a few days ago - about a week - my mum called me in to see the winner of Australia's Youth Interstate Category. I was calm, somewhat expectant - but when I read my name on the document on Facebook my whole face lit up.

What?! Me?! Really?!
Me -? - the little grade five girl who had moved to Australia only two years ago? I was dumbstruck inside.

I cared not about the prize - I only knew that a chapter had just been written in the "Book of Me".
