i know it's been a minute in a half since i've posted, but the school year has officially started! meetings, classes, hanging out with friends - it's reminding me how blessed i am to have such a rich college experience like this. over the last few days, i've witnessed so many of my friends have their dreams come to reality and i thought it would only be right to highlight them. it's also allowed me to put in perspective my own dreams and aspirations, and what steps i need to take in order to achieve them. so without further lining, here we go!
first and foremost, my home-girl Aryn Terry was chosen as one of six young women to be Torrid's House of Dreams winners! she has been granted the opportunity to go to LA at the end of October to participate in a number exciting fashion events put on by Torrid. You can check out her blog emBODY beauty, she is such a beautiful spirit...congrats love!
as many of your fashionable people know, last night started glorious Fashion Week in NYC (one of my dreams is to attend, and I will be going in the near future) and i have the privilege of knowing SO many awesome journalism and fashion students and SU alumni who are down there doing their thing. with too many to name, just know that you are totally an inspiration to me and many others who hope to live that dream some day.
and for my final thought, I recently put out there that i have a very achievable goal that i want to reach by my 22nd birthday (january 18th, 2011 my friends) and by putting that out in the atmosphere for the very first time in my life, i'm starting to see it come true. i've become more conscious about the things that i do put in my body and while i do have a slip-up every now and again, i'm really set on becoming the better person that i want to be. my "quest for 22" will be not mainly about slimming down a few dress sizes, but my growth and maturity over the next four months. i'm so excited for what is to come, and i thank God for the opportunity to be able to continue to share my story and learn from those around me.
and i promise, i will do my best to post at least twice a week to keep you all updated. :)
