Friendship bracelets

Since our last blog update we've been busier than ever. 3 more meetings were attended by our club members that we haven't written about. This post will focus on making friendship bracelets. 
A friendship bracelet is a bracelet given by one person to another as a symbol of friendship. Friendship bracelets are often handmade, usually of embroidery floss or thread. There are various styles and patterns, but most are based on the same simple half-hitch knot. 
This was one of the fun activities meetings we have, besides the educational ones. Check out some of our handmade friendship bracelets on the photos bellow.

Career planning & interview skills.

This meeting was held on Sunday, November 20, 2011, but we couldn't update the blog earlier due to our busy schedules. 
From this  meeting the young ladies learnt to create career plans and goals that are consistent with their individual interests & talents, took the Myers Briggs personality test and found out how they can use it in making future career choices. They also had a chance to see two of our officers acting out bad job interview and discuss about what was wrong with the interviewee. It's still too early to have plans for university and make career choices, but we hope that the girls will have on mind what we discussed when they should make such big decisions.

we are so proud of our future pretty leaders!
