Guess What?
I just got a facebook account!
It is so much fun. I am getting touch with people I haven't seen in a long time and having a blast. I'm certainly still confused about some things, but I've learned so much. It's really awesome.
Well, I've gotta go. I have mountains of stuff to do to be ready for nationals.
Bye!

Vacation!!!!!!!
It's summer time!!!!! Yippee!!!!
I am so happy to be done with school and studying and exams and early morning classes and school lunches and math and EVERYTHING!
I do love certain parts of school but I am glad to be on summer break.
I am in Virginia right now with my family and we are spending today relaxing at our friends house after two long days of sightseeing in D.C.
Our nation's capital is breathtakingly amazing, I've just got to say, and our tour of the capitol building was one of the most amazing things I've ever had the privilege of being part of.
"America the beautiful", right? As much as there are things about our country that I don't agree with, I can't help but be overwhelmed with the awesome detailed planning of our forefathers when creating this nation and by the freedoms that I as an American so often take for granted.
Well, it is gorgeous weather and I think we are headed to the pool and I don't want to miss out so I've got to go. Enjoy the sunshine everyone!

p.s. I almost forgot to mention that I had my official pageant clothing consulting appointment on Friday. I learned so much about what colors look good on me (summer), my body type, etc. Very helpful in preparing for nationals.

Appearances, Final Exams, and Fundraising
Hello
I think the title basically explains what today's post will say.
Pretty much, my life right now consists of appearances on the weekends, among other homework studying for my final exams which draw closer every day, and trying to fund raise for the national pageant in Orlando this August. I might have already mentioned this or you may already know, but I will tell you anyway. One of the expectations that this position entails, is the obligation - or I would say privilege - of representing Vermont in the best light possible in the national Miss America's Outstanding Teen pageant in Orlando, Florida this August. As you might guess, this costs a significant, actually a VERY large amount of money. Our aims are high and I am currently seeking multiple sponsorships and fundraising opportunities. So far, I haven't been extremely successful I am sad to report, however, I have not yet begun to fight, OK, OK, I'll admit, that was a corny, misplaced quote!
But I certainly have not lost hope in any sense what so ever and I'm excited for all that the summer holds (and not just about fundraising).
Excelling at finals unfortunately has to be my biggest concern right now, but as soon as they are over - a week from today!!!!! - I can begin my summer! I will be spending much of my time preparing for the pageant, practicing my talent piece, a piano Sonatine by Aram Khachaturian (great last name, huh?) And of course, summer parties with all my awesome friends, good 'ol family vacations. camping trips (I love the outdoors!) and hopefully a lot of shopping if I can get some jobs!
Well, speaking of the fact that summer isn't here yet (boo hoo) and I do have exams, I'd better go study!
Au revoir!
