UCA, Here I Come!

I rather frequently, and sometimes jokingly, tell my mother that all roads lead to Miss America and I suppose in some ways that mentality is parallel to the "red car" syndrome (you know, where you buy a red car and all of a sudden everywhere you go, behold, RED CARS!) Yes, i'm sure there is a more accurate psychological term for it, but I'm sticking with red car syndrome for now.

Anyways, once I began competing in the Miss America system, I began to frequently take note of things, people, and events that all had some affiliation or connection with the Miss America system. I've gotten now, where when I see a woman wearing a stylish dress in my mind I think: 'hmmmm, arrival? Interview?'

But, since the Miss America system truly promotes and believes in the pursuing of education, I feel it's appropriate to mention my recent admissions to and registration with the University of Central Arkansas in Conway.

I will be pursuing my Bachelors of Music, focusing on Piano Performance, and minoring in Broadcast Journalism.

During the fall semester, I will be taking six classes including American History, Intro to Drama, and one I'm really excited about, French I (Oui, Oui!)

I look forward to continuing my never ending education at UCA and hopefully, in the process, I will develop that elusive collegiate ideal, school spirit.

Go Bears!
