Wow, time has been flying by lately. I have so much that has happened in the past week. Last Friday, I attended the Miss Southern Rivers Pageant. This is the last pageant that a girl can win to advance to the Miss Georgia pageant in June. Talk about tough competition. However, the night ended with a great surprise, two girls ended up walking away with a crown: Miss Southern Rivers, and the new title of Miss Brookhaven. This night was so exciting, because it was the first time that I was completely surrounded by my competition. However, the girls were all very nice, and I could tell right away that the next two days at forum were going to be extremely educational for me.
Miss Georgia Forum is when all the girls get to spend a weekend getting to know one another. Luckily, this special event took place at the Cunningham Center at CSU. It was great knowing that all of this "Miss" contestants and the "Outstanding Teen" contestants had the opportunity to see our wonderful university. This weekend allows all of us to learn the ins and outs to what we need to expect in June. I can't even explain how happy I am that the Miss Georgia Pageant is in Columbus. (My Hometown) I guess this town has made me into the woman that I am today. I feel like this pageant is the climax for me to really show others that I am ready to serve this entire state. All of the preparation that I have had my entire life, has given me the skills to be able to show the wonderful state of Georgia what "Hayley Henderson" is made of.
I'm not going to lie, sometimes it can get challenging when you are in a room filled with beautiful girls whose resumes are all exceptional. Not only are these contestants beautiful, but we are smart, and understand the importance of service.
I walked away from forum with the understanding and knowledge that we are ALL ALREADY WINNERS. I know, it's that saying you hear a lot from your coaches growing up when you didn't score the winning goal. But, it's true!!
Additionally, at forum you have to draw your placement in the competition. There are three groups, and 13 girls are in each group. The groups are divided by color: gold, silver, and bronze. I drew the color bronze, and number six! As, I find out more information, I will keep you posted. But, as of right now, I have a lot of preparation before June 15th-18th.
This is also, CSU's Spring Break. (as many of you know) Currently I am in Florida getting re-energized to represent this amazing University. Please let me know if you need anymore information. I love to hear from you all! :)
