Annie, I have sent you several messages but no response. I have a feeling you don't get messages anymore.
This is a good discussion. Awards: I have received awards for writing stories, journalism, being a perfectionist, perfect attendance at work, and community service with homeless children. Those are the ones I remember.

I can very well believe the one for attendance at work, my daughter received one for when she was in school, for not being absent one day for 5 years! And I believe the one for perfectionism lol!
I don't know why they have pm's if it is never working, because I have sent you plenty as well, I am going to start a discussion about it, lets hope it doesn't get deleted. I'm going to send one to you right now because I have sent you one with my personal email, because ours always gets lost.

I haven't got pics as they were a long time ago.
1. I won a thimble competition when I designed a set of thimbles when I was around seventeen years old. I can't think about any thing else, although I used to come either first , second or third at school in cross country running oh and I won second place in the U.K Hindi film song contest out of around 150 ..as the only non Asian candidate that wasn't too bad eh? I was around 26 years of age at the time lol..

Well I got one, that I am proud of but I prefer to brag on my daughter and her friends. We are Girl Scouts and these 4 girls earned a Bronze award, the highest award they can get at their level.
They planned and created a garden for a local handicap preschool. One girl made dolls for underprivileged kids around the world. I am very proud of them!

Okay, seeing you asked.
My first award was for a pin the tail on the donkey competition. I won a chocolate covered honeycomb easter egg.
I won a box of chocolates for a 'name the make a model of the cars in this car lot.' It was a consolation prize by the owner who was a friend of the family.
Best actor in my Year 8 play, won a book for that one.
Several Best and Fairest trophies for netball.
School District diving competition.
Grand-final winner for netball and Indoor Cricket.
I think that's all of them. LOL. I've been busy!

I received awards at school, college and work the last one was a sort of piece of wood with a thank you note on it for some work i did for where i work. I still have most of the awards i received at school. They mean a lot to me.
When i was in school I received things that could be used like pens, watches but never used them I always kept them as good as new. Someone may wonder if u received a pen why don't u just use it, I guess maybe that little pen is not that valuable in terms of money but it is more than valuable in terms thought in terms of meaning. You know something ? When you put effort in something, it is always good 2 feel appreciated.

I have a degree in economics, but my gut is the reason that I'm still in business and if i can give an award to myself it would be for my sixth sense. Don't laugh I got a trophy for singing when i was in primary school! No Annie I asked you not to laugh!
