    tried to make sense of how we currently regulate our roadways. I first looked closer at the vehicle titles the state provides, given the fact this this was of great interest to me.

To me, public speaking has always been one of my biggest weaknesses in school. Because of this I would not describe myself as shy, rather anxious to preform a speech. This year one of my main goals is to make my weakness one of my strengths. Public speaking is something that I will not be able to not hide from…
