The Vow of Silence was a very unique experience for me. So often during the rush of being a teen, we get caught up in constant communication. It becomes very distracting.
The meaning and message behind the Vow of Silence was very overwhelming to me. So much so, that it never really seemed like a sacrifice. I want to make a difference and be an advocate to teens my age. As a participant, it was an opportunity for me to lead by example. I must admit, it was hard at times. I wanted to text and tweet, but I got thru it.
A day in a life of an African child is extremely different when compared to mine. I just thought about their lack of food and water, never mind the technology. The Vow of Silence really leads you to think about others and their pain. I was glad to be a part of this event and I would definitely participate again, continuing to bring attention to a great cause. I only hope I can do more to make a difference one day.
November 20th marked the 20th anniversary of the Convention of the Rights of a Child, yet millions of children are still left voiceless. To learn more, visit www.iamsilent.com

Hey Everyone!!
I just wanted to update all of you on my new music! I have been songwriting and finding my own way in the music world. This time around, my style has matured and I really got involved in the whole process. The songs are so powerful. I know you will be able to relate and I can’t wait to share! They are great songs and I am really happy with the way everything is coming together.
Tomorrow I turn 16. It’s an exciting time in my life. I’ve been so busy practicing and performing with my band. We are having a blast everywhere we go. I look forward to seeing all of you at upcoming shows and letting you hear my new stuff.
Thank you for all of the love and support. The messages never stop coming in and YOU are truly my inspiration for all of this.
Looking forward to a great upcoming year. Hopefully 2010 will be a breakout year in many ways!
Love,
Tiffany XOXO
