Education

In Fall 2014 I enrolled in my second online course of study at Ashworth College. While I gained a good education and life experience actually attending Kent State, I found that online learning was more beneficial to me as far as doing and completing things on time. It afforded me the opportunity to study, research, and absorb information at my pace while taking tests that actually allowed me to demonstrate what I learned. Finally in Jan. 2016, after having participated in a pageant and a move, I Graduated With Honors. It was a day I won't forget. :)

Back To Blogging

Sunday August 28, 2016

Hello and No you're not seeing things... unfortunately it's been a whole year since I wanted to start this blog. All I can say is life happens and things get put Way Back On The Burner. Here are a couple adventures I had this year so far. First I celebrated my first year in my newest apartment. It's Very accessible, probably more so than the previous ones I lived in since 2010.  I've made lots of friends and had some pretty funny experiences. In February I had minor surgery to remove bothersome/troublesome wound on my neck that I dealt with for 5years. It's been a major blessing to not have to deal with it anymore.  And finally and most happily this happened:


I was named Ms. Wheelchair Midwestern USA 2016 and afforded the opportunity to participate in the Ms. Wheelchair USA competition which was held in Akron, OH  at St. Vincent/St. Mary (HS Alma Mater to Cleveland Cavalier LeBron James) the last week of July. I had the privilege of competing with 12 beautiful, talented and deserving women from across the country in interviews, evening gown competition and platform speeches.  I PLACED IN THE TOP 7 OUT OF TWELVE and went on to compete in the final round of competition.
I could go on and on about this experience alone for days and still not share all the stories from the week.  That being said, I plan to blog at least every other week, more if I really have lots to share.  Please see my previous post to learn more specifics of who I am and why I started this blog. When you read this, and hopefully enjoy it, please feel free to let me know by leaving a comment.  Tell me a little about you. God Bless
