My friends and I held a karaoke night for our HOSA project. It took months of preparation and time. To put together any type of event takes a lot of time, planning, and coordination. As high schoolers, we were afraid we weren't able to pull it off. We met up several times and made sure everything would go perfectly. From food to tables to decorations, we had everything covered. We had discussed the run down of the event many times and hoped that everyone would enjoy something put together by inexperienced high schoolers. We had worked so hard and put everything into this one evening.

Finally, the day came along and all of our stress levels were at peaks. We were running around hours before the event trying to get the hall ready. "Are people even going to come?" This thought was haunting all of us. Then, 2 minutes before the event was supposed to start, we saw cars and kids walking through the entrance. Soon, we had over 50 people fill up our chairs! 2 hours went by so fast and everyone was singing and dancing and having the time of their lives! We really had pulled through and were able to have a successful event with no errors!

With lots of effort, we realized that hard work can pay off. This quote perfectly captures how our hard work to put together a successful karaoke night. Hard work is necessary to get the results needed. Setting a goal can be simple, but it's the hard work that makes it challenging and possible for you to reach your goal.
