Speaking of the pageant, Quinn looked gorgeous and said that she had dropped a lot of weight (not like she ever really needed to) so she inspired me to start working out more. I am 2 for 2 on days I have worked out this week. So far so good!
But anyways, I am channeling my time into interview because my interview this past weekend did not do me justice. I kept getting asked serious questions that delved a lot deeper than I thought they would. A lot of them were asking about my platform, which is nice, but they kept asking about it in such a serious tone, that I felt like we were having this sorrow conversation.
The one question that they asked that I really had never thought about was:
How old is your grandfather and how does he feel about you becoming a donor to him?
This one really threw me for a curve ball because I never really thought about it from his perspective. Now that I have thought about this question for a couple of days, I can definitely answer it better than I did last week.
My grandfather is 65 years old and up until about 3 years ago, he was always very healthy. I think after he was diagnosed with kidney failure, he had to rethink his life goals and what they things surrounding him in his life meant to him. I do not exactly know what he thinks about me donating, but I know if I was in his shoes, I would not want my only granddaughter to go through a very risky surgery to donate a kidney to me with the chances of it rejecting. I can assume that these are similar to the thoughts running through his head.
Now why couldn't I have answered it like that last saturday? Ughhh I just get so nervous under pressure, but honestly, who doesn't.
My next pageant is November 10-11... Hopefully that's enough time to get my poop in a group.
XOXO, Emily
