Thumbs up National History Day: Selected to represent my county at the state competition! - March 20th 2011, 11:51 PM

Basically, National History Day is this historical contest where you have to create an entry that falls into various categories (includes things like Exhibits (Individual and Group), Performances (Individual and Group), and Documentaries (Individual and Group)). This was my first year participating, and I entered a piece in the Historical Paper category since I love to write. I just arrived home from the county level of the competition, where my entry was selected as a finalist in my category! This basically means that I get to go to the state competition in San Jose next month to represent the county.

I'm incredibly excited. Now hopefully I do well enough at states so that I could potentially represent the entire state of California at the national convention this summer. My county is notorious for producing some of the best competitors, and since I advanced to the state level out of a really competitive county I think my chances at getting Nationals should be at least decent. I'm so pumped! Whee!

Keep up the great work!

Thanks Meg! Today was actually the official awards ceremony, and I ended up being selected as a champion in my category, so I am officially one of my county representatives at State! I had to go up in front of a huge crowd of people, receive this shiny medal and certificate, and then stand on top of a platform with the other winners while everybody in the room took pictures lol. It was really epic. I'm so excited for the state competition now!

That's an amazing achievement! I'm really proud of you and you should be super proud of yourself too as there aren't many people who can say they have been selected to represent their county in something! I wish you the best of luck and my fingers will be crossed for you that you continue to push on even further! You'll have to let us know how you get on and everything.
