Prom Night

Virtual Night To Shine 2021 (Highlights)

I truly loved spending quality time with my friends all night long was a dream come true!!! Once my twin sister and I were all ready for an unforgettable evening-- We picked up our best friend Maria on the way to Olive Garden for dinner. All of us ordered pasta dishes as well as salads (along with their breadsticks) and just enjoyed being together!!! It was definitely an experience that I know none of us will forget and could not wait for what was gonna happen next-- but there's more to tell :) We headed up to Danielle's house for the remainder of our Night To Shine experience and believe it or not-- We were most definitely in heaven and didn't stop partying it up till about late into the night hours!!! Her house was decorated with all pink, sparkles, and not to mention dancing the night away with music we loved (certainly met all of our some what legitimate expectations). 

We snacked on our favorite treats and pretty much laughed till our hearts were tired... but if you ask me it never stopped there!!! We also got to watch this unforgettable event take place virtually which if you must know was certainly something that I know is never gonna be forgotten. I also really loved hearing from a lot of celebrities that I knew of but a lot we didn't know of either... but their messages of letting us know-- how special all of us Kings and Queens are in this world. We also danced the night away with music that I will admit was pretty legit and well loved by all of my friends throughout our entire night hanging out w/ each other.

This was slightly different than it has been in years past-- but if you ask me, I am certain there will be endless stories to tell as the years go by. All of us were called to walk upstairs in our friend's home and quietly wait for our names to be called out as we would be crowned Queens of the prom!!! It was truly one of the most memorable moments ever and knowing that this time next year, this event is gonna be back in person and probably more amazing than we could dream of. There was a lot of smiles and not to mention surprises that we expected-- but had no idea when they were gonna arrive. We strutted our personalities and elegance down the staircase and waited to receive our crowns as well swag baskets with fun stuff to enjoy. 

Overall, I will have to admit despite the circumstances we were in--- I am so grateful this event was still able to take place and happen all over the USA!!! I loved being able to feel the unity and unconditional love for people just like me who want to feel a part of society (because this past year was more than an absolute pleasant experience for us, due to the endless ways people wanted to tear themselves apart and not keeping it together like we all know it should be!!!)

The Genesis Project - Thank you so much for hosting yet again one of the most amazing events ever & cannot wait to see what you all have planned out for next year!!! I love being a part of Night To Shine through an organization that just simply makes every single person feel loved and a part of this world, which in my eyes means so much more than anything else. Look forward to partying it up even more when the year 2022 rolls into town and the epidemic is out of the picture.
