3)Describe your fashion sense? As far as my fashion sense goes, I don't necessarily follow what the latest and current fashion trend.  What I think  happens a lot is that we get so caught up in what's the latest "in thing" that the majority of the times we dont consult that mirror and say ""hhmm maybe this look isnt for me".
I  just go with what I like. It normally depends on what mood I am in and I dress accordingly. In a nutshell, I wear what I want, when I want. That's just me.

5)What made you decide to compete in Ms Mature 2012 and how are you preparing? Well I do coordinate pageants. So when the opportunity  to participate in one presented itself, I decided to compete. My main reason for this is to put myself through  the process of what I ask of the contestants who enter the pageants I coordinate. My aim hereby is to seek out the areas that may need some improvement or adjustments in the coordinating feel as well as gain more knowledge and better understanding of what pageant participants . My goal with this experience is to help improve myself as a pageant coordinator.
