This last Tuesday, my one act team placed 3rd at districts and I also was honored to receive an Outstanding Actress Award! Beyond proud of everyone in the play! We worked so hard to make it the best play we have ever performed, and it really showed.
Wednesday, I had two interviews and my first appearance! The Norfolk Daily News wanted to interview me about why I got in the pageant, how I prepared, the pageant experience, and how I will represent the State.
My first appearance was at the Country Club in Norfolk. They had a Soup Buffet and their very first lighting of the Christmas tree on their golf course. The Norfolk Public Choir sang Christmas Carols while I got to greet people with Santa! It was delightful to see many familiar faces and talk to them about what is going on in my life! I absolutely loved greeting the little girls there as well. Seeing their bright eyes and big smiles as I put the crown on their head was very heartwarming.
Thursday, I left for Tuscon, Arizona to visit my dream college, the University of Arizona. I was able to tour the campus and more specifically, the art department since I plan to major in Fine Arts. I fell in love. Not only with the warm weather, but the beautiful campus and the welcoming people. If I am given the opportunity to attend their college next year, I would be thrilled. It's truly whatever God has planned for me, I am leaving it all up to Him! I was lucky to have my mom, dad, and brother tag along. I am sure it killed them to have to leave the cold weather in Nebraska. :) This weekend truly showed me how fortunate I am to have such wonderful parents. They have always made sure I pursue my dreams and have an open heart and mind in everything I do. This life of mine is full of blessings from Him. :)
