This week has been another of roller coaster emotions. I’m still struggling with motivation to do school work, though it has gotten a tad better. I am finding myself overwhelmed with all that I have to do one moment, and then the next I’m bursting with excitement to be back on the field. I can’t keep up with myself! Somehow, I have more work taking 2 classes, than I ever did taking more than twice the credits. And so having to write a paper every week plus all my other assignments in addition to fundraising and working at Old Navy is taking its toll on me. When it comes to fundraising, I know I’m not the best. I am in no way business oriented or a creative mind. I feel completely lost! This week I realized I needed to kick my butt into gear…but I hardly knew where to begin! It has been suggested to me to read People Raising to get some ideas. I’m going to try to find that this week.
Every week I hear of another person who is involved with the WR, or is familiar with it. Before June, I had never heard of it and all of a sudden its all over the place! It amazes me.
Last night I also got to speak on Africa and introduce WR to some of my fellow peers. Even though I’m a horrid public speaker, I think it went well. There was a good deal of interest afterwords, especially about how the World Race came about. I was able to sell some bracelets and give a bunch to a fellow student to sell for me! The interest is being raised at BBC! Progress is being made, slowly but surely! 🙂
