Last year I was looking at the internet and saw American Eagle Contest Live Your Life - hey I live my Life so I entered. Most people had professional pictures - I had none! most took pictures in American Eagle clothes - standing against walls - I have American Eagle clothes BUT can't stand - SO did I give up! no way I posted the pictures I had - prom, head shot! I posted on facebook to all my wonderful Garden City friends and guess what I won #1 Super Skinny - I am Super Skinny category for one week. My picture was put up in Times Square on their building. I hoped to be in the finals BUT American Eagle picks who they want even tho I was #1. It made me feel great! and how I feel on the inside "normal". I have entered again this year just for fun! if I win I will help my charities that I love! In the Fall I will intern for Make A Wish! Disabled does not define who I am.
