Juliana McKee - Miss Teen International® 2010 - Preliminary Evening Gown Winner

People's Choice Award

1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
Stand. I believe that everyone should stand for something that they’re passionate about. Stand for ideas, stand for values, stand up for your loved ones, stand for something, anything! And when obstacles knock you down, always stand up because the only failure in life is staying down.

2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
Confidence! Confidence is behind every smile, laugh, and joyful moment. One who is confident in themselves, their appearance, their accomplishments, and their abilities always projects true beauty. I am a believer that beauty comes from the inside out.

3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
This year I was awarded the Gold Presidential Service Award, signed by President Obama, for performing over 250 hours of volunteer service. I am proud of this because it shows me that, even as a college student, I can still make a difference in my community!

4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
Monday! Many people dread Mondays because it marks the end of the weekend and the beginning of a new work/school week. I look at Mondays as a fresh start and a new chance to make my mark on the world and continue to learn and grow as an individual.

5. How would your parents describe your personality?
My family!!!! They are behind me in everything I do and I feel so incredibly blessed for that. They have been in my corner through every hardship, every crazy dream, every failure, and every success. My family has molded me into the person that I am proud to be today.
