So...Miss Central Ohio was a blast and I feel so blessed to have been part of it! The ED's are the some of the kindest and most giving people I've ever met! They helped with so much and had lots of extra help if anyone needed it! Of course, many of us did--including myself. Unfortuantely, a row of beads popped off of my formal gown the night before I left for Newark, so I had an alternate gown for formal. Once I got there, my talent gown's eye/hook was so hard to get hooked because one part of it was just a thread so the ladies had to sew more on my dress so it would not come unhooked on stage (which would have been a horrible Janet Jackson moment! Yikes!) and lastly, before bathing suit, I noticed a "run" in the butt-area of my swim suit...I still wore it, since it was hard to see. I even had a scratchy throat...and my Mom had to buy me cough drops (which I left on accident!), but I still pulled off my song well, despite the raspy sound I had. I thought I answered my FIRST onstage Q ok, but my second was horrible because I stuttered! I don't know what was up with that! haha...After the pageant, I was informed by my fans that I was asked what my favorite baseball stadium was that I sung at...well, I have NEVER sung at a baseball games in my life--don't know where they came up with that, but oh well! I got a laugh out of it! I know, I know, it sounds like I'm a complainer and I make excuses, but I'm totally not! All of these things really did happen...but none of these things bother me...Know why? I still had fun. Sure, I was EXHAUSTED! And I ride home was long, but it was great because I got to spend it with my best bud ever...someone I hadn't really seen or spoken to for months due to the many miles between us...I was so happy! IT MADE MY WEEKEND!
I can't wait until this Saturday and Sunday! I am competing in SWEEPS! Of course, I'm hoping for a big "W" on Saturday...hehe...that would be so cool! If I do not happen to win, I will be making a long and dreaded drive to Medina (because it is SOSOSOSO far from home) to compete in SWEEPS there on Sunday. I know whoever wins on both days will make fantastic reps for the Miss Ohio pageant in June!
I think I'm ready for Sweeps...I have a *NEW* b-e-a-utiful formal gown, a new swim suit with NO "runs," and my original formal gown is fixed and is now my talent gown...in which I will sing Whitney Houston's "One Moment In Time." I'm excited and can't wait to see the girls again! They're all so nice and helpful to us "newbies." Good luck to everyone! Hope to see you this weekend! Wish me luck! B-)
