little sister.

I have an almost little sister. She is actually my best friends younger sister, but we have been really close for really long and I consider her family. Tonight she won my high schools pageant, the Miss Cox pageant. I'm happy for her because she is kindof a status queen and these things make her really happy and give her the boost in confidence she really needs. Teenage years are tough. I can't say I really support the concept of a beauty pageant, and telling girls who are already stressed about their teenage lifes and have poor self image that they need people's approval in order to succeed. I worry about her. I worry that she spends so much time worrying what other people think of her she will just get stressed out and become unhappy. I'm still proud, but in a way that makes me question what I'm really proud of.
