     "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 seventeenyearold 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 (观

众) 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 (比赛). "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 rough 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 (青少年) 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 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."
