Do I believe that being Miss New Mexico USA was the greatest accomplishment I will ever have? No. Not at all. Many things within that bucket have indeed lead me to the great aspirations I now have. My year also afforded me the adventures to learn and grow in unpredictable ways. As I turn the page from one chapter to the next I recognize that this chapter still remains in the book. It’s even what makes the next chapter even more enticing and delicious. The pages left behind have been highlighted, quoted and dog eared, and they will be cherished and reference for the rest of my life. But to stop in the middle of the book would be a disservice to the author and creator.

As I embrace the next chapter I sit in much reflection of what’s to come, and how to enrich it and expand upon it. Of course I am nervous, that’s what a new chapter often presents, but with the nerves comes excitement. I look forward to what’s in store…

 
Happy Brittany has been a journey and a huge part of my life. I often hear “you are so positive and inspiring” and I think to myself it hasn’t always been like that and I'm nowhere near where I'd like to be. It took the courage of exposing my thoughts and making myself vulnerable along with truly owning the roles I had set forth for myself.. The blog makes me a better person, as silly as it may sound. I am very excited to grow and allow my blog to provoke said growth. It’s time for a new beginning…. not from scratch…. but derived from the lingering words of suspense and joy from the previous chapters.

  1. Hi Brittany! My name is Jess, and I am a big follower of Miss USA and Miss Universe (even though I am Australian). I love hearing what all the state and national queens are up to even after their reign is over, and I'm so excited to have found your blog! You come across as such a friendly, open, positive person, and its no wonder that you were voted into the Top 16. We have some of the same interests, makeup in particular, and I blog also, though I'm not quite as articulate ass you. I will definitely be making your blog part of my regular reading, love it!

  2. Brittany,
    I just wanted to stop in and say i LOVE following you. (Ok... that sounds a bit stalkerish) haha. You are such an inspirational woman. While we didn't have the opportunity to get to know each other personally during our NMSU days, I just want you to know that I admire you. Good luck with all your endeavors!
    -Kate
