And the winner is...

Today i received a letter in the mail.
Mail is probably one of my greatest joys in life.
The letter was to inform me that I, Ms.Biggar
(as the letter addressed me) have been chosen
as one of the 4 finalists in the Bernice Adam's Awards.
In my city this award highlights local members of the
community who address issues, educate and most
importantly send a positive message about the arts.

I have been nominated for Outstanding Youth Award.
At 14 years of age my achievements are ones important
and inspiring enough to some people to be nominated for
an award showcasing young talent and sending me home with
a scholarship if i win.

I have done the following:

-Member of Galt Little Theater Alumni
-Past children's group member
-Past young adults preforming arts program member
-Front of house
-Lighting
-Makeup
-Assistant stage manager
-Runner
-Apprentice of children's group
-Co writer of 'Txt U Later' (contracts in work for publishing)
-Original Director of 'Txt U Later'
-Musical and Arts council St.Andrew's Public School
-Arts Nights+Christmas Concerts Lead MC
-Arts Nights+Christmas Concerts participant
-4th/3rd trombone St.Andrew's Senior Jazz Band (gold provincial winner+soloist)

-Jr Scholar's achievement writing competition in school and regional winner
for poetry and short story
-St.Andrew's drama club participant

And more to come.


I want this bad.
I want to be a starlet.
