Why hello there! If you are reading this it means that I, Delanie, after over a year of procrastination, have finally finished creating a blog! Yes, it is true that it has been a long time goal of mine to create a blog. I've always enjoyed writing and I find myself so witty and funny that it would be nothing short of an abomination if I did not share my humor with the world. Unfortunately, I have never really taken the time or effort to sit down and do so. However, a recent event has promoted me to finally sit down, open my laptop and regurgitate the many thoughts running through my mind onto the internet. And that recent event is that of acquiring the title of Miss Grand Forks under the Miss North Dakota/America Organization. Now tis true that this is not my first title, however, under this title I have developed a platform about which I am truly passionate and I wish nothing more then to reach out as far as I possibly can to spread my message. And what is the best way to reach a broad audience across the world? Why the internet of course! So what is this platform that I am so adamant about sharing? I have created what I call: |
The YOU Project: Encouraging Individuality, Understanding and Acceptance
I fully believe that one of the downfalls of this world is that of clipping one anthers wings. We are often asked to conform to the standards set by our community, leaving little room to be unique and blossom into our best selves. I am here to demolish those standards! I encourage everyone to push aside the pressure to fit into a box and to stand up, love themselves and all that makes them a colorful human being. Along with that I encourage everyone to understand the uniqueness of those around them. It is when we can look at one another and say "Hey. You like pickles and I like cheese. I don't know why you like pickles and not cheese, but let's hold hands and celebrate both!" that we can achieve harmony and acceptance in our communities. Weird analogy, yes, but you get my point.
For more info on my platform please check out the PLATFORM page on this site. Now the execution of how to spread this message is still a work in progress. It is evolving every day as I conger up new ideas and I am excited to share this process with all of you! So stick with me as I go about this crazy journey. Now what else can you expect to see here on this blog? Here is a quick break down of what to anticipate!
- Fun fitness and nutrition posts
- Plenty of embarrassing stories
- Tales of triumph and failure
- Updates on my Miss Grand Forks adventures
- Quirky humor
- Rambling
- Uplifting and encouraging posts
- Food for Thought
- Awkward Delanie moments and stories
- Question and Answer posts
- Perhaps some Vlogs!
- Grammatical errors
- And most importantly . . . FUN!
So here is to a 2015 full of all that is listed above and more! I hope you all stick with me as I test the waters of blogging! I want to create some kind of fun sign off, but all my ideas are either references to Gossip Girl, some kind of musical or a hand gesture that you would not be able to see since this is just a written post…hmmm….I see that I am already accomplishing my promise to be awkward and ramble. I'm just gonna go now…Until next time!
