I would not allow my 45 appearance to hold me back from putting my best foot forward. That evening, I 46 my election plans a whole year in advance.
I realized that girls would have to get to know me and recognize that I had the ability to 47 them.

Suddenly, I realized that I had 52 much more than I had dreamed of. I had made many new friends and had helped people 53 the way. I had won the 54 and love of my school-mates and they knew me as somebody who would stand by them. I was able to put a smile on their faces and 55 their day.
