Day Four on Coastal Tour

// May 6th, 2010 // Awareness, burn, Drinking & Driving

Today was another great day on the road. I woke up at my sister-in-law’s place and got ready and headed to Starbucks for my Americano and breakfast sandwich. I was on the road today by 8:30am and the weather wasn’t too good but it wasn’t raining so I’m happy.

I arrived at the school about 9:30am and had a great meeting with the principal and Christian who is the teacher who has organized the presentation. It was nice to sit and talk with them as this shows me they are truly there to help their students.

We then headed over to the gym where I was to present. Once the sound test was done I was happy as everything was working perfect. The teacher who was doing the sound advised he was running around all morning getting things together. I told him I appreciate him having everything setup.

Don arrived before the presentation and we had a great chat as I haven’t seen him for some time. Don is one of the ICBC Road Sense Coordinators. The students all filed in the gym by 10:20am and we were able to start on time. Christian introduced Don from ICBC and Don introduced me. The presentation went well again but really was there any doubt. I truly love presenting as this does make everything seem like there is a purpose for everything I have gone through. I do believe this and that’s why I do these presentations.

There weren’t a lot of questions today from the students but that’s ok because I could tell by their reaction that they really got the message. I later got an email from Christian and he advised that there was a lot of positive feedback from the students and that’s really all we can hope for.

The rest of the day was very quiet and now it’s time for bed. Tomorrow I have two presentations, one is at Abbotsford school of Integrated Arts (ASIA) in Abbotsford, BC in the morn and Heritage Park Secondary in the afternoon.

Again thanks for reading my blog.
