As Told By Calynn M. Lawrence

Hi guys! I hope you all are well and thank you so much for reading. Today, I have a blog post that is so long overdue. Thank you to Miss Barbara Ellzey for providing me the information on this lovely organization, Pearls For Girls. This is actually a subsidiary of the REACH Leadership Program for Girls.  REACH Leadership Program for Girls is a nonprofit organization that inspires all girls to excel academically, reach for their dreams, and to make positive life choices. This extension works to provide incentive an reward for academic excellence to young girls. As you know, I stand behind movements such as this because I truly do believe in girl power. There is so much potential in the female youth today that organizations like this should be incredibly commended. Just watching the video below is enough to move anybody to want to make a difference.

I am so overjoyed writing this blog post just thinking about how amazing my experience was finally getting to see my two favorite country rock bands since I was a preteen perform live and in color last week! Having the priviledge of blogging their performance was beyond epic, beyond cinematic, beyond anything I can even fathom. You just would've had to be there...they were just that awesome. Thank you so much to both Nickelback and Daughtry for bringing to life the vision of you I had in my head for a decade of fandom, and allowing me to blog the experience! To give you an idea of just how badly I wanted to blog this concert, my play sister Ari and I drove 3 and a half hours to Indiana from Chicago, stayed in a super crappy motel, rocked out at the concert from 6 PM to 1 AM, got lost trying to grab food, returned to our crappy motel and slept for a couple hours then were right back on the road at 5 AM to return to our n...

Brick Malone Brick Malone is a custom and ready to wear designer brand based in Chicago, Illinois. Brick Malone caters to the confident woman, which represents the brands dedicating to personal service, custom fit, beautiful fashion and a spectacular look with a style that will complement her character and personality.
