Winning!

So apparently I am pretty good at winning! This summer my sister's sister-in-law told me that Wilson Diamonds (where she works) was having a bad date contest and said I should enter to help it get going. I have been on some lame dates so decided to enter. Not many people had entered so I asked friends and family to like my story and Wilson Diamonds so I could win. Throughout the summer lots of people started entering and getting lots of votes. I was still ahead until this guy started getting a ridiculous number of votes the few days before the contest ended. Desperately, I asked everybody to like my story and my amazing friends and family helped a ton! After working all day the last day of the contest my brother let me know that guy still beat my by a lot of votes. I didn't want to be depressed so just went to the party still hoping I had a chance. Wilson Diamonds threw an awesome block party where they announced the winners. After dancing with my friends, they said they were going to announce the winner...who was a "she." I turned to my friends and said "No way. It can't be me." as my I started realizing I had a great chance. Then they called my name, and of course we went CRAZY! We were jumping and screaming! Did I mention that the prize was 1,200 dollars!? I went to the front and they handed me the check and my hands we shaking so bad that I couldn't even hold it! It was surreal to win that much money! Apparently the guy who was ahead of me had fake votes. It was so incredibly exciting! Now I am one thousand and two hundred dollars richer thanks to my amazing friends and family who helped me so much! Thanks so Wilson Diamonds for the awesome contest prize! First the Price is Right and then $1,200 dollars! Life is pretty dang good!
So excited!!!


 Getting drinks to celebrate the win!

Thanks again Wilson Diamonds!
