Over a month ago I was at the Miss Black USA national pageant in Washington DC. With 28 Queens competing the experience was beyond my expectations. I learned so much about myself as well as what I needed to improve to better my future. This was my experience….
Upon arrival I met Miss Black California USA 2011, she was very sweet and we both were excited to make it to our hotel to meet everyone. I have nothing but great things to say about how amazing my stay was at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City Hotel. Every single “sister queen” was unique in every way. It seemed as if we all had admirable goals and knew own to achieve them. Each of my sisters is phenomenal to say the least. Each of them had creative ideas within them that will change the world.
Once the pageant was over I did not feel as if I did not accomplish my intentions of being in this pageant. What I took away from this experience was the responsibility of a young woman that can achieve anything she puts her mind to. Even if we are faced with adversity “its not what happens to us but its how we respond” (Ms. Karen, Founder) these words remind me of all the ways I may have acted in the past and now I am a knew person, rejuvenated and ready for the world.
I enjoyed every part of my journey and congratulate Ocielia Gibson on becoming Miss Black USA 2011. I am so proud of all of her accomplishments and wish her a great year.
This experience will be in my heart forever!
Thank you,
Demitrea Kelley
