Rehearsal Numero Uno

We had our first Miss Seattle rehearsal today, and I'm even more excited than I was before. They brought in McKinley Smith (reigning Miss Seattle, and 1st Runner Up at Miss WA 2010) as a guest speaker, as well as Devanni Partridge (Miss Seattle and Miss Washington 2009), and hearing what they had to say was amazing. I felt so star struck, but the girls were so friendly and willing to answer anything we had to ask. They said we could win them over with coffee or happy hour appetizers if we wanted to meet with them one on one and that they were looking forward to getting to know all of us.

We got our schedule for a general idea of what we'll be doing over the next couple months, and everyone mark your calendars! We're hoping for October 16th for our first annual fundraiser entitled (drumroll please) "Miss Seattle's Got Talent." Last I heard it'll be a talent preview and dessert auction, and it will raise money for the program which goes directly back to us girls in the form of scholarship money. So I expect to see some people I know there!

That's about all I have for now. I'm planning on going shopping for an evening gown on Tuesday, and I never knew it'd be so hard to find a swimsuit! Until next time.
