Tamika, Miss Virginia International 2010, and the other amazing young women officially began their National competition at 8pm last night for Orientation. So many beautiful and accomplished ladies. Glad I'm not a judge!
I wonder if everyone feels prepared and ready? I get the feeling that some folks didn't know what to expect because they are new to the system. Those are the folks that I love to help. You know the ones who don't have a director and are flying by the seat of their pants to a National competition that is top of the line. I'll bet those young ladies wouldn't feel "stifled" by having a director. I'm sure they would cherish the opportunity for a little (or a lot) of guidance.
Since I can't direct them all, I'll be sure to offer a kind smile and a word of encouragement to all of the ladies. I'm excited for Tamika because I know she's awesome but I'm excited for all the others who are embarking on an exciting journey that includes someone picking up the big crown. But more importantly, I hope it means that all of the ladies learn a few things about themselves, make some new friends, and take home memories for a lifetime. And maybe, just maybe VA will leave with two crowns instead of one...........................yes, I'm a little partial!
