Things have been so crazy hectic busy lately that I haven't blogged in probably a week. Sometimes busy can mean a solid week of social obligations. Mix that in with every day business, errands, chores, gym & family and there's just not enough hours in the day.
Approximately three weeks ago I was invited to participate at Aspire Ollin University Prepetory School Career Day.
I can't even tell you how thrilled I was to be invited. I had approximately three weeks to prepare. Since I had never participated in anything like this before the only thing I had to use as reference was being a kid and remembering career day at my school. I sat in my office and I put together a half hour presentation that I thought would keep kids engaged. I had 4 half hour sessions with 9th & 10th graders!!!
The day finally arrived and I had to be up at 5:45 in the morning after having been to one of my best girlfriends birthday party the night before until 1:30 AM.
I was a little tired, but I was still so excited about career day I was running on pure adrenaline and I was ready!
I can't tell you how cute these kids were, there were ninth-grade and 10th graders and very polite. My presentation started with our amendments ,with the Constitution. I thought that was very important for children to realize that Bail Bonds is our constitutional right first and foremost outside of being a business. I was able to project my commercial with good sound with all the lights out so they could really see it which was fantastic. I also gave all of the kids my fliers and stickers. Now what would a presentation from RQOB be without some cupcakes or some cookies?!!! Of course I had my girl from cupcake cartel design and create some custom cookies for the day. They had my logo on them completely edible! They came in a custom box with bright colors and were super cute!! Some of the young girls even wanted to keep the empty boxes. These children were super sharp, bright & attentive ..polite and just a joy to be with for that day. I will never forget my career day in Huntington Park with these children. I'm forever grateful and it was truly a highlight in my career.
