My Winter Update

Wow, it has truly been forever since I have touched this blog! I'm ashamed to have abandoned it for so long, but I have been extremely busy with work! (And I really can't complain about working too much, because I LOVE my job!)

Over the past few months I STILL get people stopping me and asking me if I was on True Life. And every time I don't expect it at all. People have really surprised me when saying they 'cried during my episode' or just 'really felt for me and understood exactly where I am coming from.' I really can't express enough how much it means to me that I have hit a chord with so many viewers. That really was my honest goal in being a part of the show. It wasn't for my 15 minutes of fame, or to get people to recognize me on the street. I really just wanted people to learn about my battles with my breast size and for girls with similar emotions to realize that their "problem" is felt by so many. You aren't alone ladies! And it's becoming very apparent to me that more and more women are "opening up" to the fact that it's ok to have small breasts and NOT like them. And for some, wanting to make a change, to feel better and more secure about themselves, is normal too!

I have been asked this numerous times by friends, family, and viewers of my episode, "Are you still getting them done?" And the answer is: YES I still, very much so, want to get my breast implants. And I YES, I am still saving up for the surgery. It may not be the greatest thing to admit, but I have credit that definitely reflects my miss-use (to say the least) of my credit card, within the end of my teen years. So, getting a credit company to sign for a finance plan for my surgery is nearly impossible. Therefore, I need to save up the cash myself before I can even schedule my appointment. So, bottom line: I am still getting my breasts done, just don't know when...

I wanted to leave you off with a great piece of news! I recently received a call from an MTV producer! She asked me if I would like to be a part of True Life's Follow-Up Show! After doing a short interview over the phone, I told her that I would love to be a part of the follow-up and to keep me posted with details as the project progresses. SO, I am keeping my fingers crossed that I get the call saying I am in the show! I guess only time will tell! Wish me luck!

    "And for some, wanting to make a change, to feel better and more secure about themselves, is normal too!" Very well said! There's no better time than now if we really want to make a big impact, a big change. In your job, just like some other jobs, self-confidence is all the more important. And we just can't get that if we don't feel good ourselves. It's nice to hear people like you who chose to act on improving their body instead of feeling bad about it. Good luck!

The Feedback

I am sooo happy that I have received so many nice emails and comments about the show!  Surprisingly, I haven't gotten any "hater mail" and everyone is SO nice in what they write to me!   For the most part, everyone is saying that I am fine the way I am, but if getting implants will make me happier, then do it.  That is exactly the point!!!  It's my life, my body, and my decision.  I am really glad that people see that. Aside from these comments, I have also received a lot of advice from women who went through the same thing as I am, and women asking me for advice on how to handle it!   All around, I am most happy to hear that people are proud of me that I have taken what A LOT of women think, and made it public.  Some people, mostly guys, just don't understand that having small boobs is a really hard thing to cope with.  It's not always about having the perfect body, most of the time, it's really about feeling feminine!   Thank you to everyone who has writ

The First Update!

I would like to start by saying that I have never felt so accomplished in my life.  Being on True Life: I Don't Like My Small Breasts was an amazing experience.  It changed the way I look at life, and I think I have changed for the better! Filming the show was a lot of work.  It was a shit load of hours or constantly being on camera, and it got a little annoying, having to repeat things.  But I really don't have a lot to complain about.  Overall it was really fun!  And I am sure the shooters loved when I burped... haha because I was miced-up and every sound that came from my mouth was blaring in her ears.  Oopsy.  Sorry about that! A lot of things happened that didn't make it to the show.  In the early days of filming, I took a trip to a crazy store called Harry's Occult Store.  My friend, Jes, and I went there to try to get some more herbs to help my boobs grow.  Well... O man, this place was crazy.  There was a guy who was a psychic, and he told the future by listenin
