Summary
From opening video credits: "This creative and simple story is reminiscent of an experience most of us have shared in our lives & delivers a clear message about self identity. The two main characters are schoolgirls Laura & Mickie. Mickie is pretty and flambouyant and behaves like the 'Miss Popularity' type. Laura is shy and unsure of herself and most of all wants to be like Mickie. The character Brad, an admirer of Laura's own 'specialness', becomes dismayed at her attempt to emulate Mickie. As the final scene unfolds Laura's metamorphosis (symbolized through several costume changes) leaves her feeling good about herself. In the finale, all join her to deliver the message to 'Celebrate Yourself'!"
