Ok guys! So here it is! The pageant I think could be for me and It is perfect!! After the Miss C-I Pageant I spoke with the lovely Bill and Vicki from the Miss Brainerd Lakes/Miss Baxter Pageant and they told me to look on the Miss Minnesota website and find an open pageant and they will help me with it! I found one and it is apart of the Miss America Organization! It is................The 2012 Miss Northern Lakes Pageant! I am so excited! BUT!!!!! I need Your Help! If you go to www.missamericaforkids.com/donate/tiffanypaul there you can donate to the Children's Miracle Network (CMN). CMN is the official platform for Miss America! Let's band together and make a difference! I will update yall one things when get put together more! -Tiffany

Well the night went AMAZING and now the results! BUT before I tell you I want to say I am doing better then last year and I am trying my best to keep my smile! I feel God has a reason why I didn't get a crown and I feel I made an impact and that is what I really wanted! The results: Miss Congeniality 2012: Haley Hann Crosby-Ironton Princess 2012: Bailey Swensen Miss Crosby-Ironton 2012: Rashell Rudek But I didn't walk away empty handed! I earned the Best OnStage Question award and the best of them all...even better then a crown and sash!! I earned the Life Achievement Award! And that is all about staying positive through the hard times and coming out a winner! May God bless me as I go on after this pageant and focus on better things and be able to let go! :) I am unsure about my pageant future but sometime I feel I do want to compete again! I will just let the pageant come to me if God wants me to compete again! If I am there is a title out there for me somew...

AHHHHH! It is One Hour to pageant and I am so calm right now! I feel ready and I cannot wait to see how this will all turn out! I am so ready for this! I can't wait for the glitz and show what I have to offer to represent the community! So as I am getting ready to sparkle on stage...I am praying for the best and at around 9 pm or so You will know if I get crowned or not! I have a great feeling about this! It's all in God's hands! It's all Good! May God bless us as we are on stage and off! Keep our hopes high and keep them there no matter what happens! 'Til next time! -Tiffany A Pageant Contestant who is living the night that her dreams could come true!

I thought I would share with you my day so far! I woke up very calm and relaxed about the day! I woke up at 5 this morning and had a shower! That is very unusual to get up and running that early for me lol. But no complaints I was able to chat with my parents and really had the chance to chill. I was supposed to meet with the director this morning but she didn't show up so here I am back home doing some things before my first to do for the day! I might write while the day goes on but we will see how much time is left! Blog ya later! -Tiffany

Wow guys. The day is finally upon us. Tomorrow as I go at 11:30am for my hair I will be relaxing and just getting ready for that interview with the judges. Then the actual private interview which last year I did really good on! So I am still nervous but praying before will really help! Then comes time for the night of glitz and inner beauty! We have been practicing time and time again and I am so ready for this night to come. Tomorrow night will be a blast! There have been some some unfortunate times like when my pointer finger nail on my right hand cracked! Also when my zipper broke on my interview top! But I am trying to keep a smile because things sometimes go bad before they can get better!! :) Tonight is the night we vote for Miss Congeniality!! It will be hard for me to choose because all of the girls have a kind heart and it will be a tough decision. Now if you will be wondering what I will be doing that day here is my schedule for fun to know purposes. :D 11:30 I get...

So as I am writing this blog when it is 2:30 AM!! I have truly bonded with these gals. We watched the 2010 pageant dvd and It prepared us like majorly for how it is going to be. Yes I did compete last year in this same pageant and know what it is like...yet I did forget how it felt up there. Eyes on you and you are being judged for a title you have been dreaming about. All you can do is try your best!! This is a blast and I love these girls like they are my true sisters. Sadly we all can't be crowned but IF I am crowned I would be proud and happy to be crowned to any of the girls. If I am not crowned I will be so proud and happy for those whom earn it! Lets hope and pray for the best for us all! And that these come together perfectly! Ok so I will be logging off and chatting with you later! God Bless! -Tiffany A Pageant Girl who has bonded with her fellow contestants that she feels like they are her sisters! *Copyright of this pic goes to Rashell! Left to right: Sienna ...
