Favorite thing about RIM: It’s hard to name just one favorite thing about RIM. Internationals has been the one week I have looked forward to for 3 years now. From the stage to the parties, the staff, the directors, the delegates, the bonding, just the whole package during my week at RIM has been incredible. There has not been one year I haven’t walked away thinking about when the following year’s dates will be released to experience it all over again. The feeling of acceptance and home at the Royal International Miss Pageant Internationals has to be my favorite.
