Since I was elected as a Member of the Youth Parliament, I have had a really great time. I have had my confidence boosted because I have been to many different events. I have made my public speaking skills better because I have been talking at sittings, meetings and so on. Being an MYP requires a lot of work. You need to be able to speak to your councillors, MPs, meet up with your constituents and so on. I have been able to plan events during my time, which was a real achievement in my point of view. It made me feel so much better for myself. I felt that I had helped people. Which made me smile!
