I'm alive I swear! :)

So to catch you up on my past few weeks...Well, Miss Universe came and went.  My personal opinion, of course, is that Alyssa Campanella was the most beautiful woman on the stage.  However, Miss Angola took the crown!  And okay...let's be honest...she is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.  There just isn't any way around it.  I was disappointed for Miss USA but we still have a wonderful Miss Universe.  So...congratulations Leila Lopes!

 Then last weekend, when I was supposed to be going to Nashville (which if you didn't know..is my favorite place in the WORLD) to meet with a pageant coach... I'm pretty sure that anything and everything went wrong...  I come home from school and get hair and makeup ready and start to pack up my stuff to wait for Ben to get out of practice.  He wanted to go home and see his family so we were just going to go together.  Well...his baseball practice started late and he called me to tell me to go on without him...which was a problem because the tires on my car needed to be changed!  and in the midst of all of this...I couldn't even find my Johnathan Kayne heels!!! Talk about a trainwreck!  So I had to cancel my appointment and stay home..which I hate doing...but I took my car to get it fixed the next day and the mechanic told me that I would have had a blowout on the way to Nashville no doubt.  So maybe it was God trying to give me a heads up!!  and I'm SO glad he did!

Then Saturday was the UT vs. Florida game.  and don't ask me why...but every single stinkin year I go into that game just KNOWING that we have it in the bag... talk about being a true fan.  Well...we didn't have it in the bag.  Not even close.  I'm going to blame it on the fact that we lost our best player [Justin Hunter] in the very first quarter of the game.  Sooo sad...and now he's out for the season.  So I'm depressed to say the least.

and this week has been slow. just school, dance, pageant prep, sorority, repeat.
