This time, I'm no beauty queen...just beautiful me

After all the preparation, long nights rhinestoning, making sure my wardrobe was perfect & practicing interview the day has come & gone.  I decided to come out of retirement from pageantry...my last title was Miss San Francisco Bay Area and it was a great way to end my pageant career, but after moving to San Diego I decided to compete one last time, and I was going for the title of Miss San Diego USA 2012.  Besides, what better way to make friends and meet some girls with the same thoughts I do and who ACTUALLY want world peace!!! 

The result of the night was I didn't walk away with a crown on my head, but I did meet some great women, had a fabulous time competing again, and had an experience of a lifetime.  I ended up placing TOP 5 for the night, which is good, and got to wear my favorite gold gown :)   ahhhhh  if I could sleep in that dress, I totally would haha. 

 See what I mean!  Gorgeous huh?!

I have to send a HUGE thank you to A Robert Cromeans Salon & Mary Cuomo for sponsoring me for the pageant.  They sponsored me in FULL & Mary did the most beautiful cut and color for me & ROBERT CROMEANS also helped!  Ahhh when he touched my hair, I was speechless.  He is a legend and I look up to him so incredibly much.  The Paul Mitchell Family is SO amazing & I cannot wait until I am actually working along side these amazing men and women.  (totally starstruck)  I start school one week from today and will finish up my program @ San Diego Paul Mitchell School....yippee!  I will stay on board at M.A.C. Cosmetics and go to school part time, so should be done in about a year or so.  Here's to another great adventure in my life....
