DeVry University...HERE I COME!

Hey readers, so a little bit has changed since I last blogged! Today was a life changing day for me. I truly was devastated after I received an email entailing my results from my Appeal form for my academic suspension. Well I did receive two bad grades due to my inability to study around work and family and also being able to enjoy what I was majoring in. So I really got uninterested quite quickly. I was going to change my major to Communication Arts & Design which is all about web design, video editing, etc. But one set back, actually two, it was in another city that was too far for me to travel to and my academic suspension.

When I got my results back for my Appeal form, I got super excited because I thought that I was approved. Then I reread it and I was denied. This tore me up. I started to cry and I was in a mess of tears. I thought why, how could this happen to me. What am I going to do for schooling.

I started to look up online colleges and I found a bunch of them. Then I found the one I was interested in, DeVry University. This had the program I wanted to major in and my goodness it is absolutely perfect. So I started to fill out my application and I came to the final page and I needed to give a $40 application fee. Then I got a call to work so I went then after I went to the bank to ensure I had enough money for the fee. when I got back home I finished up the process then later I received a call. I thought it was going to be one of those annoying calls, I was prepared to hang up. It was DeVry U.

I was so happy they called and set me up for the semester. They just asked me why I decided to attend and some info on myself. They told me about how amazing their school is. They walked me through the process of how their online classes are and for the FAFSA as well. When I was completed with the call I went right on ahead with setting up my account info and ensuring I was all set up with what I was told to do.

I was not expecting to have them call me and be so nice and willing to help me. I would suggest them for sure. I have to take 4 assessments this weekend so I will be a busy gal. But I want to let you know that I will probably not be blogging much unless an event comes up or when school is finished and summer comes which means pageant season!

Just thought I would let you know of my latest amazing blessing today! :)

Love and Blessings,
Tiffany

Raising Funds for New Smiles!

Hello guys! So I have noticed that I am getting so addicted to blogging...HAHA can't help it is so much fun to blog about how much fun I am having recently that is pageant related! So I wanted to make a blog about my fundraiser for my platform...Operation Smile! I have known of this organization since I was little and with having this birth defect of a bilateral cleft lip and palate, I was personally connected with this. When my father would tell me to turn it to a channel the commercial was on for Operation Smile, I felt so bad for those kids who couldn't have the access like I had to doctors and surgeries. I wanted to make a change. I thought it would be cool to donate to my platform before the pageant to show how much I really do care and want to make a difference. But my boss suggested to do a fundraiser through the month of August for Operation Smile. So I did and I started actually in Mid-July and I already have more then my goal is! My goal was $240 which is enough...

PAGEANTS ARE COMING!!!!!!

Hey Y'all!! So it's been a while haha. Well let me let ya what has been going on pageant wise in my life. So I have been planing on which pageants I was going to compete in this year, of course in the MAO (Miss America Organization). At first I was going to compete for the title of Miss Midwest but it is actually a little too far for me to travel to. And just randomly speaking, if I were to get the title I felt it wouldn't be fair if I couldn't completely commit to serving out the job. So I will not be competing for Miss Midwest but the next closest one would be Miss Coon Rapids. :) With Miss Coon Rapids, it is much a little closer for travel comfort and it's close to my sister, brother-in-law, nephew, & niece. Also it's a close place to an awesome shopping center! I cannot wait to see where God takes me in pageants this year. So far in this new year He has blessed me with a incredible new job & an incredible closer relationship with Him. I have le...

New Dreams, Challenge Yourself!

I truly think if you have dreams, please challenge yourself and not settle! I believe that is what I have been doing with pageants. No matter who or what brings me back in, at the end of another pageant I feel these same feelings. It's just not where God has me going in life. Let me paint you a picture of how it happened. It is the end of the pageant, it went by pretty quick and throughout the whole evening I felt off. I didn't feel as confident like I normally do with pageants. I tried my best as I possibly could. They handed out overall (throughout the 3 titles) individual awards. One miss contestant got two the other got one. There were three of us Miss Contestants. As we went up for the title I knew I wasn't gonna get it. The runner up was announced...not me. The title holder....not me. Shocker? No not at all! I've competed for 5 years....7 pageants (including this one) and I've always lost. I've won Miss Congeniality which is such an honor don't g...
