I am currently a month into my last semester as an undergrad! I just cannot stop thanking God enough for bringing me this far. There was a time that I did not want to return to college. Now, Im 3 months away from graduating! I cannot believe it. I got my cap and gown on Valentine's Day and nearly cried when I tried it on. Its all becoming real for me. I am going to be accomplishing one of my major goals soon. Thats nothing but God's work!
Also on Valentine's Day, I received a Valentine gift from my mom and my stepdad. My mom knocked on my door at midnight and when I opened it, there was a huge card and a gift sitting there. The next morning I found another card and some Valentine's M&Ms from my stepdad. Later in the day, my sister and I surprised my mom with her favorite cake and some lunch and surprised my stepdad with his favorite pie and a card. It was a great day! I felt extremely loved.
I am a 6 foot tall woman, so I hear the question "Are you a model?" almost on a daily basis. For years, I've said "Umm, no", but now I can say "I've modeled before". Yes, I finally decided to step outside of my comfort and do a fashion show. I was asked to model some bridal gowns for Gabrielle's Bridal during a bridal expo recently. I was hesitant but then decided to just go for it. I am so glad that I did. I had such a great time and enjoyed being in the spotlight for awhile! The quick changes and the beautiful gowns/dresses, the music... it was all so much fun. I was asked to do more shows in the future and I agreed without a hint of hesitation. It wasn't a haute couture, high fashion show or anything but it was still a fashion show. So now, Im going to call myself a model. No one can stop that from happening. Tyra Banks, Kimora Lee, Adriana Lima, and ME. *snaps*

Up next is Mardi Gras. I only plan to go to one parade to see my mom riding on a float. Im just dont do parades too much anymore. The thought of struggling to find a parking spot, standing in a crowd for hours, being pushed for cheap trinkets, and the smell of horse droppings is just too much. I just cant even deal. However, I will put that aside for a little while in order to see my mom. She's worth it!
Hope everyone has a good weekend and Mardi Gras!
p.s. Another post right after this for NYFW!
