But; seriously. Next year I'm going to be color Guard Captain. And all I can think about is, will I make a good leader? I mean I know I've taken more than a dozen leadership classes, and I'm prepared, but being prepared, and actually doing are two different things.
I also feel bad because I think Sam is a little resentful, I am not saying jealous, I know she's happy for me; but she worked just as hard as I did. In the end I got it, and I think it upset her a little. I also don't want her to think she's not good enough, because she is. She's talented and I know she could do it.
I guess though, getting back on topic...
I'll be able to do it. I've givin this a lot of thought and have come to this conclusion.
Being a leader isn't about the classes you take, or how you take charge,
It's about having passion and the will to get the job done.
I know the only reason I wanted color guard captain, (and trust me there was a point where I didn't want it because I felt everyone else wanted it for the wrong reason i.e. to be the boss of everyone)
Continuing from the" I know the only reason I wanted color guard captain," is because I love color guard. And I want other people to do it to. To me it's all about having fun.
I want to teach someone and feel great when they finally understand.
So...Who knows how I'll do. The outcome is unpredictable. But I think I'll be just fine. I know I want to do this, and I know I can. All I have to do is have a little faith in myself and everything will be just fine.

That's really cool. Usually the people who wonder if they're good for a position, and actually ponder and question, and want to do good, usually those people are right... Just try not to loose your path. Things like that can be hard, just remember why you're doing it.
