Since the very first time a Girl Scout（女童子军） rang the doorbell at Ciana Sparks' house, she has known her destiny （命运）．

Destiny is about what you were meant to do．But sometimes you get tile opportunity to do  what you dreamed of．

"The Girl Scouts would come up to our door to sell cookies．I always wanted to be one of them," Sparks said． That was ten years ago．Since then, American Girl Scout Sparks, now 16, has been living her dream of selling cookies．She has sold a lot of them．

 "I sold 1,209 boxes．The year before that, I sold 800 boxes," Sparks said． She was one of 23 girls who sold more than 1,000 boxes．She has a simple way of selling the cookies．

 "I usually start around my neighborhood．I call some of my relatives who live Out of town．I go to my mom's work．Then I do the booth sales．"

 Sparks says a personal touch helps．She doesn't just send the order sheet（订货单）．She goes there and does the selling in person．And she always wears her Girl Scout uniform, or a cookie costume．

 "You have to remind people that you can only buy them once a year, and you want to buy as many as you can-or else you'll run out," Sparks said．
