Just got back from the 7th Annual Ms. Chiquitita Pageant at the Central Park next door. I attended in the capacity of
"Reporter" recruited back in the Media world joining forces with big sis Winds who is far away in First World.
We can combine the only Caye Caulker newspaper online (or otherwise) THE CONCH CHRONICLE - A more serious issues kind of news & LIFE IN A BANANA REPUBLIC - the un-official island news.
Winds has excitedly just LAUNCHED BELIZE T.V. a new site online where you can upload videos about Belize for all to see. More info on this can also be found on http://www.cayecaulkerchronicles.com/ .



Not everybody pops at the same time, its like popcorn, one here, one there. Tonight Velveth Molina just popped, but all these other young ladies will have a chance to pop in the future, they have the MOJO.

WHY I LOVE PAGEANTS
Sharon Auxillou, the 1st Queen of a new Nation, BELIZE.
-------------------------------------------
As a follow-up to her success & wanting to be like her, I garnered the necessary courage to face a jam-packed
(I'm in white next to the M.C.)

I don't tell much people this little bit of my history although I am proud of it and ended up living in Africa anyway later on.

When I told Biggie my pageant story, he says: "You know that First Runner Up is FIRST LOSER" and suggested that I should have practiced a Tanya Harding on the winner so I can go on the trip. Haha.
--------------------------------------
So in nineteen ninety something I was asked to judge a Miss Belize pageant by Ms. Soli Arguelles who managed the pagents in Belize at that time. I accepted and attended in Belize City at the same auditorium where I was once on stage. Nostalgic. I wanted to show them that they screwed up by not picking me a decade earlier so I attended the televised event in a to-die-for white sequined backless gown imported from foreign just for the event. When I was announced as a judge, I stood proudly & waved for all of Belize to see the mistake they had made by not choosing me to
R-E-P-R-E-S-E-N-T. - HA!
-----------------------------------
That led to hosting a few Miss Caye Caulker pageants and then someone

Always nice to hear from you. I had heard of this woman and the book, however, I have not read it. Sounds interesting and I will pick it up when in the US this summer.
Thanks.
