forgiven? hopefully haha
so yesterday was a big day, really unusual and a bit surreal to be honest. but we'll start at the beginning way waaaaaay back in December..
i went to the clothes show live in December, if any of you don't know what that is, its an overpriced market really, its gone down hill recently, but hey ho.
One of the stalls was being used by the company Miss Teen Queen, they asked if I would be happy entering so of course I did on a whim. there were millions of girls entering that weekend so i took nothing to it.
Christmas passed, new year, January, February AND march almost, so its no wonder I forgot about it until last Monday when an envelope dropped through my front door, it was from Miss Teen Queen UK, I'd been chosen from 19,800 girls to go though to the judges! I was sooo excited. I had a little form to fill in and post back which I almost didn't do because I never thought anything would come of it but I sent it off non the less on Wednesday morning.
Friday dinner I checked my phone at school and I had a text; "Looks like your going to London tomorrow, teen queen-Dad x" I was gobsmacked. seriously I never even thought that I would hear back nevermind it being so soon.I got home and there was such an excitement in my house it was so nice but that soon faded into worry because I had to pack and I was so nervous thinking I would forget something haha
Anyway I woke up 7am yesterday morning got dressed washed my hair put the tiniest amount of makeup on and got in the car! 3 and a half hours and a nap later we turned up in North London, somewhere near Camden and went to this studio.There were 3 other girls there when I was and all of them were beautiful. We all sat in a waiting room while each one took a turn to have her makeup and hair done and then be shot by the photographer, JP. when it was my turn I awkwardly smiled as I walked into the makeup room because I was so nervous but Ben, the makeup artist, really put me at ease, he was nice, funny and was giving me a lot of advice. He kept saying how this was his favourite makeup he'd done yet and he didn't want to stop playing around haha he was lovely.

When that was done 1 hour later I went onto set, JP made me comfortable in front of the camera and explained everything, it was amazing! I loved every second of it and so did he, he kept saying how he wanted to take so many pictures because the shoot was going awesomely :D, after that I was taken to see my photo's and the rest of the competition was explained to me.If I get through to the next round I will be put onto the website, it will then be a public vote to get through to the finals, I will need as many votes as possible to secure a place in the finals. but I'm just so shocked I never thought this would happen in a million years! the experience was amazing:D
so would you vote? hehee :')
