Life


Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I have been soo busy. But here is an update on my life! For starters my roommates and I were biker chicks or hells angels wives for halloween. And we had the time of our lives, went on a party bus with about 40 other people. We just lived it up! We have all grown so much this year. We are truly learning what it is like to be adults and yet have fun at the same time. I could not imagine my life without these girls. There is never a dull moment in our apartment. We are always laughing and having a good time. I thank God everyday for them. They are my best friends and always will be.
I recently helped my roommate Jessica with 2 fashion shows at the church we go to. The basis of the shows were self image and self confidence. Jessica told me I had to help her because I am one of the few people she knows who have confidence in myself and I carry myself very well. The first fashion show was with girls who were in 5th through 8th grade. And I love this age so it was a lot of fun for me. I liked the fact that they were asking me questions and were interested in who I am, the best part was helping them become more confidence in themselves. They were also asking me questions like, "are you a model", "do you do runway", and one asked Jessica if she was on a TV show. We had some good laughs after we left and were recapping the night. I also found it interesting listening to their dreams and what they wanted to be when they grow up. They were not very realistic. And many of them said models. I just wanted to say, you just wait and see that when you get older it is not all that it is cracked up to be. They are so innocent and have a lot of living to do.
Saturday night we had a group of older girls and they were in high school. They were a lot easier to work with and had a lot of fun! The concept of these fashion shows was to show these girls that you don't have to dress revealing or expose too much to be pretty. And that your body is God's creation and you should treat it with respect. It has amazed me from what I have seen while at college. It has really opened my eyes to the "real world". Not only in dress but in other peoples actions. It makes me think, what would your parents say if they knew you were acting like this or even dressing like this. But in some cases the parents don't care. So I have come to realize that not everyone is as fortunate as I am and doesn't have the up bringing I have had. There is so much more in my life that I can't wait to experience and I am excited for what the future and God have in store for me!

I just want to thank my mom and dad for making me who I am! Love you both so much!!


God Bless and have a wonderful Thanksgiving :)
