VETERANS, MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT OF BEING A DCC: My most memorable moment would be my very first game at Texas Stadium when we walked out on the field for the very first game of the season. I was in my uniform in front of 65, 000 people ready to perform our pre-game. Our pictures were flashing up on the big screen, the crowd was going wild and the announcer introduced us as America's Sweethearts. My heart jumped and I had a knot in my stomach joined by butterflies. I had never been more nervous and excited all at once. I couldn't stop smiling and that is when it hit me; I was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader! Now, every time I put on my uniform, that moment becomes memorable! IF YOU COULD BE ANYONE IN THE WHOLE WORLD, WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY? Myself! I would never want to be someone God didn't want me to be. I am proud of everything I have accomplished in my life and I only look forward to what is yet to come! I have been very blessed and wouldn't change myself for anyone! IF YOU COULD GO ANYWHERE IN THE WHOLE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE AND WHY? I would love to go to Russia or Hungary. Both are a big part of my family history that I would enjoy seeing.
BIGGEST MISTAKE: I don't feel that I have a "Biggest Mistake". Every mistake I have made I have learned from and feel that I am a better person because of them. I feel that mistakes are put in our lives as learning experiences that we should grow from not have regrets from!
I'M HAPPIEST WHEN: I am around my friends, family, and my dogs!
I'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO: go to bed early.
A REALLY GREAT EVENING TO ME IS: To snuggle up on a palate in front of a fire on a cold rainy night watching movies and eating popcorn with someone special.
IF I COULD CHANGE ANYTHING ABOUT MYSELF IT WOULD BE: My self-criticism.
PEOPLE WHO KNEW ME IN HIGH SCHOOL THOUGHT I WAS: Outgoing, friendly, full of energy and athletic.
THE BEST ADVICE I COULD GIVE TO A 20 YEAR-OLD IS: "Seize the Day!" Don't ever take anything for granted and look for the silver lining in everything. Keep your head high, know that you are special! Stay close to you friends and family, for they have helped make you the person you are today. Never have regrets; everything happens for a reason.
MY LAST MEAL WOULD BE: Mexican food, cheese fries with bacon bits and ranch dressing, and strawberry shortcake or strawberry cheesecake.
MY TRADEMARK EXPRESSION: "Okay sweetie!" and "Don't sweat the small stuff"
MY WORST HABIT IS: Being late! But I am getting better.
MY BEST ASSET IS: My smile!
BEHIND MY BACK, PEOPLE SAY: "Where did she get all that energy?"

I WISH I COULD SING LIKE: Christina Aguilera
