Jumping Up and Down!!!

Yay: I GOT CHOSEN AS A TOP 40 FINALIST FOR THE IDEAS CHALLENGE AT A&M UNIVERSITY!!!
Nay: I don't think I did well on the test today :(

Before I go into the Ideas Challenge I'll show you a picture of my mom with the bunny! She called dibs on it before I even got halfway through it!! Isn't she pretty!!!! Goes to show you these cute animals aren't just for little kids!!! If you need a Mother's Day present contact me!!! intheloop.sarahjayne@yahoo.com 

So basically the Ideas Challenge is a competition where a lot of people (groups or individuals) enter a business or an idea for one (you have to go to Texas A&M) and then judges pick 40 finalists out of all who entered and those people go through an interview process on May 1st. There you go through two sets of interviews with two different panels of judges. You have five minutes to present your business to them and then there is a five minute Q&A. Both panels are the same format but different judges. That same day (once everyone presents) 7 businesses are chosen and they are awarded cash prizes. First place gets $3000, second $2000, third $1000 and the remaining four get $500 each. I have a meeting next Wednesday that helps me figure out how to do the five minute presentation and I plan to try my hardest!! But I'm truly thankful that I was even chosen as a top 40!! That is a prize in and of itself. But it doesn't mean I won't try for the top 7 ;) Wish me luck though!! And by the way it was for Sarah Jayne Studios which is the main company I started which In the Loop is under.
