Day Before Graduation!
I graduate tomorrow! It's funny because I don't think it has really hit me yet (probably because I'm too excited about AJM to realize that it's happening). There are tons of graduation parties to attend and such, but last night (after stopping at a few), my brother and I went to see Kung Fu Panda!!! It was the funniest animated film ever, and we loved it haha. Anyway, I have learned most of the fitness routine. It's tough stuff! State was pretty difficult, but this stuff is really intense... I love it, though. It's kindof salsa-like at parts and very high energy. It makes me feel good doing it :) As the time to leave for Mobile quickly approaches, I'm getting more and more excited and nervous. I can't wait to meet everyone, do all the fun activities, and perform, but I'm also nervous because I want to represent my Ohio girls in the best way possible! State was such a life-changing experience, and the quality of the girls who were there truly touched me. I will never forget the close bond we formed, and I'm thankful for the way we were able to embrace each other in such a short period of time. Well, I'm going to go do some reading and work on the fitness video before doing other preparations tonight. Bye!

OJM 2008
This year has been quite an amazing journey. With senior year craziness and the blessings of Junior Miss, I have had the time of my life! In less than two weeks, I will be off to Mobile to participate in America's Junior Miss. I have begun contact with some of the other girls, so I am extremely excited! The DVD for the jazzercise routine came in yesterday... It looks difficult but really fun, and I will be beginning to learn it once I finish this blog! In a few short days, I will be graduating from high school (Bittersweet :/ ), too. I miss all the girls from Ohio's Junior Miss dearly. I haven't been able to see anyone because I live on the opposite end of the state in comparison to most. I hope that I get to see a few of them at the raffle next Saturday! That's all for now... I need to get cracking on that DVD! Thanks, Lauren :)
