About Me

Hi! My name is Brianna Lockwood, and I am trying to make a difference in the way we treat each other. If you had to close your eyes and I said the words pretty,dainty, and skinny what would you see? How about if i said brave, athletic, strong and muscular? I bet the first time you pictured a girl and the second time you pictured a boy. What if someone can't live up to what their peers think would make them perfect? What if they didn't want to? Living up to what society expects us to be is impossible. Everyday adolescents are bullied because of how they look or act. I believe that every one should be different and believe in themselves so we all can fight society's "normals" together.

During the Superbowl this Sunday, make sure you watch the ad #Likeagirl. The Like A Girl campaign is by Always, the director, Lauren Greenfield is an award winning American artist. She wants to educate, and empower young girls for the future. So she asked girls and boys of varying ages what it meant to run like a girl, throw like a girl etc. The answers were humiliating to women. I hope everyone joins the campaign today and empower the young women of the future. Click on the link to see the video and join the fight.

Last night I had the chance to meet CMN Hospital child, Princess Mina! She was such an adorable and inspirational young girl. She was so confident with herself. I can't wait to see her at Miss America one day! I'm so glad to be apart of the Miss America Organization because this is what its all about.

Being different from someone doesn't mean you have to criticize them. Instead you should accept them and in some instances help them out. In life we will all grow up and reach some kind of destination or goal. But how you get there is based on who you are and what you want to do. Don't forget to not let negative influences effect your path to your own goal.

With the new year upon us, I want everyone to have a year full of love and compassion. Not just love for yourself but for others aswell. There are people in need in every community around the world, and it is time to help them. I challenge everyone to donate or help at least a couple of times to a charity of your choice. In the same manner, don't forget to be yourself this year. People may think of you differently or judge you but do not let that get to you. Who else can you be? You. You can only be you so don't let anyone bring you down. #beyou
