Amanda:

Amanda is always upbeat and positive, no matter what life throws at her.  She accepts people for who they are and gives everyone the benefit of the doubt.  She has a great fashion sense and a style that’s her own.  There are parts of her appearance that she is very self-conscious about.  She told me that she used to let those insecurities affect her, but then she realized that instead of stressing over the things she couldn’t control, she should take advantage of the things she can control, i.e. the way she dresses.  Her creativity shines through her style, and her sincerity and kindness shine through her smile. 

Her favorite quote: “Begin doing what you want to do now.  We are not living in eternity.  We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake.” ~ Unknown
