My Family from Chicago: Rick, Joy and Faith

My Uncle Jim and Aunt Gloria

We attended the TRYST Night club.... Haha, we were all really tired; I think you can tell by the smiles.

Habitat for Humanity: Basically we had to move furniture from one place to another. We finished in less than 30 minutes what it would take one person to do in 2 weeks..

It was a really good workout.

Eating Breakfast.. 
My time at Miss USA will always stay with me; It's so full of different memories and emotions.

I don't regret anything, I went in being prepared and came out an even stronger individual.

I believe that all of life's experiences are there to teach us, sometimes make us even stronger.

I met so many amazing women from all around the United States. Some of the friendships that I made there helped me pull through when I was feeling tired, because trust me when I say four hours of sleep for 17 days sometimes wears on you...

After Miss USA 2008!

I just got back home from Miss USA; I had the most amazing experience of my life...

I'm still unpacking and trying to catch up on all the things I left behind while being gone for three weeks.

I'm so proud to be part of this whole experience.

There's so many people and experiences that I have gained through this.
