Hanging with the best!

 As my next semester at Binghamton approaches quickly, I had the pleasure of spending the day with my beautiful Long Island Pageant sisters!!! =]  We met at Hotoke in Smithtown, and had a fantastic time!! We got the chance to know the brand new Miss Long Island Teen 2012, Catherine Manett!  The reason we are crowning a new Miss Long Island Teen 2012, is because, Sabrina Mastrangelo became Miss New York Teen 2012!!!!!!! =]

We had a great time getting to know our new queen Catherine, and congratulating Sabrina on her achievements! We truly are proud of both of them! =]

The time I have spent getting to know the Long Island Pageant girls, have been life changing, and incredible, each girl has something different to offer, and they are all so incredibly smart, and beautiful! I am so proud to be apart of this family, and I really do not know where I would be without them! 

Now that I am beginning to pack again for the spring 2012 semester at Binghamton University, I am constantly reminded of all I am capable of accomplishing, and how important it is to be confident in oneself, and to remain positive no matter what challenges life throws at you.  I am a firm believer in everything happens for a reason and I know that whatever gets thrown my way, I have the strength to overcome it, and to make the best of my life.  

Thank you to my Long Island Pageant Family for this reminder, and I am so honored, and lucky to have you all in my life!

Hola Amigos!

Well, I keep my word and am posting in early January =]
Firstly, Happy New year!! I have an incredible feeling about 2012, much like my feeling for 2010, and I am excited! ;)

I am currently getting ready to go back to Binghamton, working on some homework for my winter classes, and lounging around like my normal Sunday routine.  =]

In this year, I hope to accomplish a few things, Community Service in both my home town, and in Binghamton, to over come my Pre-Diabetes, and to bring more education about food and latex allergies in children.

I guess it is time to make that announcement now, and well, here it goes!

In August, of 2012, I will be competing in the Miss Long Island Pageant.  =]  I am extremely excited about competing this year, and cannot wait to meet the beautiful girls I will be competing with!

The count-down has begun, in exactly 32 weeks, I will be competing for the prestigious title of Miss Long Island 2013! =]

But for now, please watch my fellow pageant sisters Jessica and Sabrina in the Miss New York USA pageant this Saturday and Sunday.  =]
Also please vote for them to win People's Choice!!
