4 appearances in 4 days

Most people on a 4 day weekend have a relaxing, chilled time, or go somewhere exciting like a city break. Not that I had 4 days off, I was working still and everything else like uni and college work but instead of resting in between I had a very busy Friday to Monday!!

Day 1- Friday and I was asked to help coach the models of the Fashion show in aid of Prospect Hospice, one of the charities I support. Alongside Miss Swindon we helped show the models how to walk and to enjoy the moment, also to meet and greet the public coming in and do the raffle (amazing prizes which once again I didn't win, such bad luck with raffles). It was a great event and worth rushing home from work to change quickly! This event raised over two thousand pounds, here we are pictured with the organiser. Only just found out after we gopt there that we could of been in the show itself modelling, there were some fab outfits, but til the next year! Was so strange being on the other side but a new experience!

 Day 2- Saturday! And me and the new Miss Swindon Galaxy Gemma Drew were helping raise funds for the Stand Up For Cancer week as part of an ongoing fundraiser for Cancer Research UK. We were in M&S and although people were more interested in the free xmas pub samples and wine (in the middle of the day!), we raised a fair bit which will go towards helping find a cure for cancer! If you weren't there to put some change in our pots, pop along to the charity shop in Swindon and donate there, and check out the official merchandise!!

Day 3- Sunday! Day of rest, but wait no, bright and early after a night dancing to celebrate my friend's engagement (love you chloe), i was dressed as supergirl and hoped on my bike (the strangest looks but hey!) to the Swindon half marathon fun run!

 I was running with Miss Wiltshire Galaxy and after starting the race i realised just how unfit i was! I did the half marathon last year, but taking part in the fun run just made me miss it and will defo be training next year!! Straight after we finished we had an interview with BBC Wiltshire about all the charity work we were doing and what we thought about the race, surprised we could even speak but we still managed it!!

Then off to my England's Perfect photo shoot with CMG Photography. We worked through the night til midnight!! But got some great images and different concepts! It's great to have different shots to my normal pageant smile! We worked on makeup and looks inspired by Chery, Rhianna and my fav LMFAO. Here is a behind the scenes shot and you will see the results very soon!!

Here is one of the shots, very pin girl!!

No lie in for monday morning, day 4 as it was off to the Swindon 105.5 studios to talk to presenter Trevor Smith about the upcoming charity events of the week. It was a great show and i always feel welcome and love that i can come in anytime for a chat, no krispy Kreme donuts this time tho!! ;) So the charity events this weekend? Swindon swishing tonight, maddison hotel, £3 entry to go to CALM Charity. Bring your old clothes and swap them for new Guilt free shopping which is the best kind of shopping, then more swishin with the Swish Ball at the MECA Saturday night in aid of Prospect Hopsice. As well as opening Rachel's Wedding shop saturday morning, there is indeed no rest in this pageant gal's life! Sunday will indeed be pj and catching up on coursework/ xfactor!! What a PERFECT way to end the week!
