Faith Ward

wow it was the most incredible feeling yeah it was really cool so once you do that you then go into the field stuff so i was like number i think i was number 50 out of like the 80 girls right and you're all sitting in these chairs just waiting to go and your heart is literally in your chest it was the most scary feeling of my life i don't think i've ever been so nervous it's crazy it's at this point what's the vibe with the other women

That's a really good question.

I feel like at this rate, I didn't know anyone.

So I'm like chatting, making friends to everyone.

And when I get nervous, I'm like, just talk to me, please.

Calm me down.

Obviously, then I kind of realized the cultural differences.

I was like, oh, okay.

So I'm a yapper, you know, Aussie gal trying to make banter.

And they're all just like looking at me like, this girl is not funny.

Like, what is she on about?

And that's when I realized, okay, Faith, you've got to like adapt a little bit here.

But no, the girls are all the sweetest things ever.

And they make...

that's a little bit terrifying, less terrifying.

So they had had this idea from college here, because obviously in Australia we don't have college.

So they all grew up with this image of being a DCC, which so did I, I just didn't know it yet.

And they'd been doing the whole cheer spiriting, all of that stuff their whole life.

So they're probably sitting there going, yep, we know what to expect.

This is what's going to happen.
