"I didn’t hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004. "Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said ‘yes’ and it was announced again."
It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana—she was still on cloud nine.
"I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.
Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete(比賽)."She’s always been my role model. I’ve danced with her since I was six. She’s been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I’ve learned to get over bad life’s experiences and learned how to move on because of her."
One of those bad life’s experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the hard days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...”
As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to(除…之外) many other things to help the youth.
When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don’t let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself."

The next morning I got up very early. It was dark and everyone was asleep. But I was going to Darpur.
I washed and dressed carefully. I put on my best clothes and carried my best stick. I put the money order carefully in my pocket and said goodbye to Martha.
I walked ten miles to the main road. I sat down at the main road and ate my breakfast.
I waited for the bus for about two hours. The bus came and I got on.
It is a long way to Darpur. The bus takes three hours. I arrived in Darpur and walked to the post office directly. I don't often go to Darpur. I only know the market, and one shop. This is the shop of Rick. I buy things for my farm from Rick.
There were a lot of people in the post office. I asked about money orders. A man showed me the queue. There was a long line of people and I waited at the back.
Finally it was my turn:I was at the front of the queue. But the man at the desk took no care of me.
“Excuse me,” I said. “It's my turn. I'm next.”
“You are next? Old man, I'm very busy,” the man said. “Look at my papers. Look at all these people. I am very busy. And you must wait.”
So I waited. Finally the man looked at me.
“What do you want?”
I gave him my money order. “This is my money order for one hundred pounds,” I replied.
The man held out his hand. “ID Card,” he said.
“Excuse me. I don't understand. What is an ID Card?” I replied.
“Your ID Card gives your name and your address. Your ID Card describes you. There is a photo of you in your ID Card. I can't give you any money for this money order if you don't show me your ID Card.”
“But I don't have an ID Card. Where can I buy one?” I asked.
The man did not speak to me. He gave no answer, And I didn't know what to do then.
