I have never felt this way before. Never have I been called beautiful. I really don't know how to react. I've always been told I have a harsh, bird-like look, but now, someone is telling me I'm pretty and I get paid to take pictures.
I'm not sure if I like this. The scout said that I would have no problem finding jobs, but I don't know what to do or say! I can't imagine seeing my name under top model status. "Isabella James, The Next Big Thing." Yeah, right.
Well, Dad says I should at least give it a try. I should just go to the audition, what could be so bad about that? I don't think i'll be able to stand the 400 other gorgeous girls who are definitely going to be noticed more than me. Maybe I'll get cut right away and that would solve my problems.
(later..)
I'm at the audition, unfortunatly. Well, actually, I did want to do this to see if i could, maybe that scout was right. I see these huge dresses, I hope we don't have to wear those, I'll look ridiculous.
They just announced my number, oh my goodness. What am I going to do? Just look like you know what you're doing Isabella. You can do this.
There! There's a girl who looks as confused as me. Maybe I'll just go stand next to her. Well, here goes nothing..

Dear President Obama,
For the next four years you have a large responsibility, but i am confident that you will do an excellent job. Although many problems cannot be fixed within the four shorts years of a presidential term, I hope that you focus especially on the econmy of our nation and global enviromental issues.
The economy collaspe earlier in 2008 has brought about many difficulties on American citizens. Month to month, the numbers of unemplyment grow, increasing debt and homelessness. This is a concern. Eventually, only the privilaged will able to lead comfortable, structures lives. We strive for "all men are created" equal, and i hope that you see that we need to get a start on the problems at home before we turn to our foreign responsibilities.
Secondly, we as Americans are one of the ost wasteful nations in the world. Soon all promblems will revolve around how the world is slowly dying, and we have the power to slow, possibly stop and reverse this process. Together, citizens need to work together to try to reduce emissions and be more resourceful, while at the same time not making it a huge part of life. With a little effort from everyone we can reduce our waste and emissions just by doing the little things. Reduce, re-use, recycle.
I hope that you take these things into conseration, as we as a nation have the power to come together, change, and be better. Thank you.
SIncerely,
Suzanne Galbraith

Dear David Sedaris,
I was first introduced to your book Me Talk Pretty One Day in the sixth grade by a favorite teacher, Ms. Padron. She read to us the chapter about your trip to france, and your problems with the language barrier. After school that day I immeadiatly went out and bought the book for myself. When I look back on that memory, I remember laughing so hard at such mediocre, every day things. The way you put these memories of yours on paper made me think about how much more entertaining random, daily experiences can be.
For example, in your chapter about your parents dogs, I felt the happiness and the pride in the animals, the willingness to carry around a shovel. I remembered being sad when Duchess died, but at the same time you presented the situation in a way that saw the comical side of the saddness.
How you relive your experiences with the world around you in your book really inspired meto look at life in a new perspective. I laugh more in my everyday life after reading your book then i ever have done before, and because of this I go through life with a smile. It helps me through the harder times knowing that there is laughter just around the bend. Thank you for allowing me to open my eyes and see how laughter can make the a world brighter place.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Galbraith
