Aloha,
I am proudly running in this year’s Mrs. Hawaii US pageant and seeking your help and support! Becoming a pageant contestant is a life altering experience that will allow me to obtain more than new friends, but the opportunity to gain confidence, poise, self-esteem and the opportunity to serve and benefit our community. The Mrs. Hawaii United States pageant focuses on showcasing married women for their ability to integrate intellect combined with beauty. This year’s pageant will be held on May 23, 2008 at the Paliku Thearter. This is a preliminary pageant for the National Mrs. United States Pageant held in Las Vegas, Nevada in July 2009 which will be televised. Last year’s pageant aired on Ion Media Networks (formerly known as “PAX" TV). I am currently a full time student and entertainer. I fill my time singing, acting and modeling, and I am very interested in hiking, skydiving, music writing and spending time with the family.I will be contacting you to follow up on any questions or concerns you may have regarding our pageant. I hope you will take this opportunity to be a part of a wonderful tribute to married women all over the country. And I would be happy to provide you any additional information about myself or the pageant at your request and I’d be utterly grateful for your help and support. Tickets to the pageant are available for purchase as I would love to see you at our event. Be there to support me as I go for the title of Mrs. Hawaii US 2009!

Topic: Cool app for iPhone users
If you have an iPhone, there is a free app called "Lose It". It's a wonderful, portable and easy to use way to track your food and fluid intake. The app will compute the nutritional value of everything you eat so you'll know if you are getting enough protein or too many carbs, for example. You can track your fluid intake and even exercise. If an item isn't listed in the program, you can enter it. Same with exercise.
It's not currently available on anything other than iPhone but hopefully will at some point.
