Homecoming
It took us a long time to give them our tickets and get in. We took our shoes off right away and checked them. The music was OK. They didn’t have anything to eat though. My dress…it was awesome. There was not one other girl with the same dress. Thank you for the dresses.

Homecoming was really fun. They didn’t have good music. I didn’t know the DJ but the music was like from 94.1 – real old music. Not old people music but songs from long ago. Still, it was fun.
Cierra’s aunt altered our dresses and made us flowers to match. People were looking at us like we were twins.
I wore heels which I don’t normally do and I think I did pretty well. I danced in them for about an hour. Then I took them off!

Ms. Emily, our Director of Programs, won yet another (!!!) weightlifting championship. Here she deadlifted 310 pounds. Look at that mug! Isn’t she fierce?!

A Girl’s Day
It was so much fun trying on the dresses and then looking in the mirror. This is something I can do all day. It was nice to see the expressions on the other girls’ faces. Everyone got the dress they wanted and put it to work. It was such a coincidence we received the dresses at this time because homecoming and prom are right around the corner. We are all beautiful young ladies and this was a step to building our self-esteem; looking in the mirror, hearing the compliments from other girls, and taking something valuable home. It was a girl’s day and a special moment.
We took a picture and we all looked like magnficent divas. Trust me; I appreciate this more than words can explain. The day I put on that dress, some accessories, and heels – I will make it a happy ending. Oh yes, I felt like a princess.

Zaterria: “Be good.” (hahahahahaaa…)
Cinderella
I am grateful to have had the opportunity to even get to try on a dress and pick out the one that not only fitted me, but also made me feel beautiful in my own way. At first, I was nervous that I would not find a dress that fitted me the way I like my clothes to fit. When we walked in the room the dresses just stood out. They were glamorous! Something that would have all the heads turning my way wondering, “Who is that?” I grabbed a dress and ran into the back to change. I loved it, it was my favorite color (pink) and it made me feel like I was in a movie and my prince charming was outside the door waiting to slide on my glass slipper.
