I am in the process of looking for sponsership.  So far I have found some examples of "fundraising"letters on a websearch…blah blah blah boring stuff. Why can’t i find anything out there on finding athletic sponsers without having to pay for a website to get them? My friend Rockstar-[Troy at WOW back home in Connecticut says i should have a portfolio ready to pass out at the Arnold… soooo what to put in a portfolio? I figured a cover letter requesting sponsership, photos and a resume? But how do i present that? I can’t carry around a bunch of binders right? Anyone have any ideas to share with me? Love ya for sharing!!

OKay so now i am full into the diet and feeling really tired this morning! I am doing the opposite of what most girls are probably doing now… I have slashed my protein and cranked up my cardio and running to burn off some of the muscle density in my legs. I am anxiously waiting for word on my new one piece suit… and stressing about the star-status of some of my potential competitors. I’ve got my presentation down and i’m perfecting myquarter turns… only 4 weeks to go and i am fired-up!

^ weeks from tonight i will probably be sitting in a pre-show meeting, or maybe putting on my fake eyelashes… I will be about 15 shades darker than my natural skin tone and i will be emanating a strange tanning product odor. My stomach will be very empty, and my throat will be calling out for some water, but i won’t care because there are more important things to worry about now. How does my suit look?  Is my color good? How do i compare to all these other girls? Will i trip onstage (like last time) ? Did i pick the right hairstyle? Is my face too shiny? Are my shoulders big enough? Are my legs small enough? Will i hit my poses? Will i get a good spot in the line ups (center)? Will the judges like my one piece suit this time? How will my new implants look? Will it make any difference? Will the judges like my look? Will i make it to the top ten call out??? Six weeks from now i will be getting ready to walk out on stage at the great Arnold Classic Amateur show! Six weeks from tonight i will be stepping on stage for my first National level show and only my 3rd figure competition ever. I am more than excited right now. I can hardly wait!! I have imagined myself among these ranks a million times! Six weeks from tonight I am going to walk on that stage and know that i have what it takes to make that top ten. And if i do make that elite group that goes on tho the finals, I will hold my head so high. That moment will be great. That moment will be like winning 1st place. Six weeks from tonight….

SO i finally commited to the Arnold Amateur figure competition, countdown 6.5 weeks. It will be my 3rd show and my 1st at the national level. I a super pumped about it! I know i have alot of hard work ahead of me. In the next 6 weeks i will be working hard to build my medial delts (caps!) and reduce the muscle size of my legs (per judge Gary Udit). I also want to get my lats to really pop. I love how the Pro’s lats look in their presentation poses. My goal is to make the  top 10 in my height class and compete in the finals on Saturday March 1st!!  My training has been halted for the last 5 weeks, because of my surgery, but as of today I am back in the weight room! Love the feeling of working legs so I did walking lunges for two laps around the track. Can’t wait to feel it tomorrow!!
