I am not upset. I, of course, would have loved to have held the job of Miss Connecticut 2018 but it is difficult to be upset when you refuse to let the opinions of 7 judges define your worth. I am immensely proud of the job I did performing, speaking, and representing the countless military organizations and individuals I work alongside of all the time. I have grown over the past year and even more over the past week as I continue to be changed by the organization. Moreover, I am confident that Bridget will step into the role of Miss Connecticut and represent our class of 2018 well.
As far as competing again, life is kind of in the air for me as I apply to jobs and finish school over the course of this summer. However, I do plan on staying in the area, finishing out veteran initiatives I have begun, and continuing to promote the organization in whatever ways are available to me! As the organization undergoes drastic changes I will not be far! Please continue to follow my journey as I already have appearances booked and have some more initiatives just around the corner!One point I was shocked that no one has asked about yet is how the girls were to live with over the week! I won't lie and say there was no drama in a group of 25 women, but all of that takes a backseat when I look at the friendships I built, laughs I shared, and knowledge I learned from the past week. Encouragement and support was always present from the girls whenever needed and I am so excited to continue those relationships! If you don't believe me just take a look at this photo ☺️👯♀️
As always
XOXO Lauren
