She's about to be a college graduate and has so much more to accomplish in life. Take a minute and get to know Dice.
In her own words:
A little background about me is I'm originally from Stone Mountain, Georgia. I'm currently in graduate school at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. I graduate December 2011. I am an only child.
Life has been a little different since being on tv. People recognize who I am when I'm out and they speak and wanna take pictures with me. It's so funny because I have had a few people want my autograph and I do not look at myself as a celebrity.
The next step for me is to graduate and get a job. If there is another opportunity for me to do reality tv or even another opportunity as far as the entertainment world, I would not pass it up. At least I will have that degree to fall back on if need be.
On of my proudest moments in currently being in graduate school with a 4.0 GPA. I never had grades like that before. I was always a good student but never 4.0.
The goals that I have not yet accomplished is I would love to talk with young adults and teens in the LBGT community. I would like to try and help those that are getting bullied and having trouble with being open with their families.
I have no regrets. You cannot go on living life with regrets. I think that I am a cool and down to earth person. Sometimes I feel like I am too nice. Sometimes the nice guy finishes last. lol I wish I could be more focused with working out and losing weight. I like to eat. Its so much good food in the world. lol.
The best advise I have received is be true to yourself and follow your heart. You only have one life to live and you cannot worry about what others have to say because they are living their life. I would tell people to just work hard and follow your dreams. It's not what you know all the time, it's who you know.
A lot of people are telling me now that they appreciate me and look up to me because of who I am on tv. It means a lot to me, because all I can do is be myself and obviously that is good enough. I'm very honored and humbled by the tittle and if I can help anyone feel more comfortable to be themselves then I'm all for it.
