The final event for the 24 Miss Teen Commonwealth South Africa Finalists is fast approaching and is bound to be a spectacular evening. The Grand Finale is to be held at the Lyric Theatre at Gold Reef City in Johannesburg on the 12th September at 7:30pm. On the night the new Miss Teen, Miss, Mrs and Mr Commonwealth South Africa will be chosen after interviews and the modelling of evening wear, sports outfits and national costumes. Tickets are R350 each and can be bought on Computicket. I would love to share this evening with you. If you would like to support me by being there, please use the code "Sarah" for each and every ticket you purchase. There are no words to express my gratitude for being able to compete in the Commonwealth Finale.
Thanks to the incredible support rendered by the Hilton Community, my home town, we were able to raise R4450 through the Tabitha Raffle for Tabitha Children's Home, my chosen charity. It has been wonderful to be able to work alongside such inspiring people, who motivate me to give back to those less fortunate than myself. It is true indeed that "we are blessed to be a blessing".
With the Crowning fast approaching I can only say I am privileged to have made it this far-and I certainly couldn't have done it without all the support I have been given. No matter what happens next, I am so grateful and I wouldn't trade this experience for the world. The lessons I have learnt are more valuable than any title could ever be. So, crown or no crown, I will walk away having gained confidence, wisdom, beautiful relationships, important life lessons and precious memories.
I am reminded of this quote when I consider what it takes to make a difference. "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference." May this be our prayer as a community.
Please continue to vote for me by smsing 'Sarah Andrew ' to 35554. Each vote costs R3 and votes are unlimited. The Finalist with the most votes by the 12th September will win the Public Choice Award.
Thank you to my community for helping to make my dream a reality.
