On May 23rd I spent all day at the Brownfield Transforming
Through Transition Fair. Texas Tech asked me to be one of their Key Note
Speakers and bought 60 books to give to each girl that I spoke to. The 8th
grade girls were split into three groups and I gave my presentation about
bullying to each group. After my
presentations, they brought the 8th grade girls and boys together
for a big presentation given by a rapper named Yella Boy and an American Idol
participant named Javonte Bibbs. Yella Boy is a rapper whose raps are
inspirational and Javonte got into the top thirty of American Idol. They both
sang for us and sounded amazing, and the presentation was very inspirational!
After Yella Boy and Javonte finished, the 8th graders had lunch and
the girls had me sign their books, and both the girls and boys had me sign
autographs and their shirts. As I was leaving that day, it was so touching to
see the some of the girls reading my book even though they had the freedom to
be talking or running around. I am so honored to have inspired them that much
in my presentation that they couldn’t wait to crack open my book. It is such a
good feeling to be God’s tool! <3 Jacy MCOT
