Personal Experience

I reflect to personal experience in areas in which i think it would apply. Ways in which it may help me in the future or present. An example can be me going to camp at a young age. This experience at camp can help me ready my baby sister for her first summer at camp. That way she wont be nervous but excited.
At the age of ten, i had the opportunity to manage a school play. I got to plan out the costumes, roles, and dance routines. The play turned out very successful. In junior high school, many of my friends wanted to put on a dance production, but had no idea on where to start. Me having past experience in show production helped out and gave advice. I helped make the music, pick out who should be in which dance or scene. My friends were happy to have me aboard. The after affect turned out great. Everybody had a good time doing the performance, and everybody enjoyed watching it.
