5 down, 1 to go

I'll stop with the depressing blogs now and bring it back to the wedding planning. This past weekend I asked three more girls to be in my wedding party and it makes me even more excited to start on the fun wedding plans.

Friday night I had dinner with an old friend from back home, her name is Bethany. Bethany and I have been friends for as long as I can remember. We used to hang out at our city pool together and tumble the whole time, then we ended up cheering together and I transferred to her high school, so we graduated together. Bethany has been one of the only people that have stayed in touch and makes time to hang out when I'm home. She is such a blessing to have as a friend and I'm so happy she said yes to be my bridesmaid. (She actually started crying when I asked her.)




Then Sunday rolls around and I'm hanging out at Anthony's house with his family. What a perfect time to ask his sisters. His two sisters Averi, 16 and Lea, 20 both said yes to be my bridesmaids. Anthony later told me his sister Averi was sad on Saturday because she thought I had already asked all my bridesmaids and she didn't think she was one of them, so it was a surprise when I gave her the bridesmaid proposal box. 



I still have one more girl to ask and to be frank, I don't know who I want it to be. I'm stuck between two really important people in my life, but I feel like I have to have an even number of bridesmaids, so pictures look more symmetrical. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. I honestly never thought I would have trouble having too many people I actually want in my wedding party because back home I have very few friends. ONU has brought me the most amazing people and it's so hard to decide between them.

Snapchat

I remember when I first downloaded Snapchat. I remember thinking "I have to look presentable every day now because people will actually see what I look like every day." For everyone that doesn't know, Snapchat is a social media app that started at just a way to communicate by sending pictures back and forth. It has now advanced into a form of social media. You can share stories, which are pictures or videos that everyone you are friends with on snapchat can see, and you can see different magazine type subscription stories. Now that I have had Snapchat for multiple years, I don't know what I would do without it. I snap my friends on a daily basis and it's basically the root of all my laugher. Now you can make snap groups, which means you can have multiple people in a group and you can send pictures to the group like normal group message, and I have so many with my friends. We send anything from drama we want to spill to TikToks in these groups and it is so much f...

Birdin' Around Town

One of my new favorite activities is Birding. I found Bird's in Atlanta, Georgia two years ago and every time I go to any city that has Birds, it is a necessity. You're probably asking what Birds are. Bird is a company that has placed motor scooters around cities to help with transportation and help with the carbon footprint. Bird has created a fun yet helpful way to get around the city. It is super easy to use as well. All you do is download the Bird app, add a credit or debit card, then you're set. When it's time to bird, you pull up the app and scan the bird you are wanting to use. Once you scan it, it will begin your ride and you can ride for as long as you want. The more you use the app, the cheaper your rides become. When you're done, you select end ride and take a picture of your scooter to prove you didn't wreck it. This concept is so smart and a great way to show how technology and social media is growing everyday. Who knew you would be able to driv...

Dream Job Became Reality

When you hear someone is a model what do you picture? A beautiful girl with flawless hair, skin, makeup? Maybe someone that's really tall and slender.  Yeah, I did too, well until I had the chance to model myself. I never in a million years would have imagined that I could have the opportunity to model for anyone at all. I am 5 feet, 5 inches tall, I weigh way more than a typical model and I have more visible muscle than most girls do, but this didn't prevent me from booking my first modeling job in 2016. I was so excited because I had traveled to shows with my mom to buy dresses for her bridal and formal store for a few years already and every time I wanted to model so bad but never thought I would get the chance. Like I said before, I did my first show in March 2016 and I have continued modeling since. I have modeled for two dress designers; Rachel Allan and House of Wu . With a job this like comes traveling, but I can't complain. I have traveled to cities like Chica...
