Meeting the finalists

All the Finalists looked really stunning and were well groomed.

They wanted to know how my year was, the highlights and the downside of everything that I went through. I was actually saying to them that, now that the 2009 gala is getting closer, its only now that I am reflecting on how my year has been.

During the year, there was one function after the other, one picture after the other.

So I did not really get time to sit and think about every single moment.

Its only now that I realize how much I have done and how amazing the year has been for me.

It was also interesting for me to listen to them and hear what their expectations are.

Sponsors cocktail party

This is a picture of me and Sindy De Jager, one of the finalists for The Herald Greenacres Miss Port Elizabeth 2009 competition.

It was taken at the Sponsors Cocktail Party at the Beach hotel, which was held for the finalists and sponsors to meet.

It does not seem so long ago that I was a finalist myself. Time has really gone by - FAST!

All the girls looked gorgeous and were very eager to know more about the competition.
