tacky to the max

So this week's experience was not so great. I've been doing overtime at my job and I'm trying to move into my new apartment. The pageant's got all these requirements like dresses and shoes and earrings, etc...

I show up and they're running 45 minutes late for their individual appointments. My formal dress is too big and short. No big, I can get it altered easily, but the length? They suggested beading. Um...ew tacky to the max. I'm not going to run a beautiful dress to make it 2 inches longer. Then with the talent, they can't mic a flute. All these problems. I don't really have time to take care of all this stuff. Especially because other girls aren't working full time and their parents are still supporting them. I'm not going to drop $45 on fake boobs.

I'm beginning to think that my initial suspicions were correct and that I really don't fit in, but also I know that I've yet again overloaded myself somehow.

I wish more hilarious things had happened. Well, there was a swan dress, but overall just me being pretty depressed about the whole thing and wishing I really hadn't done this thing.

But I'll post a video of my dance ;)

hehe

  2. Hey, I saw that white and black trim dress on a kid at this camp. I think it'll look good on you at least!

    Maybe you can wear an underskirt with it? And it dangles out longer like a trimming thing? That's kinda tacky but not as bad as the beading...

  3. Mimi, I's so sorry you aren't loving every second of this! I hope you're recording all of it very carefully, though, so that I can go over it with you in August and hopefully, with the distance, you'll laugh about it.

    Also, I love your picture. That is all.
