Anyways, before I get sad that this year is going by too quickly, let me fill you in on my week...
On Wednesday, I went to KOCE (a local Orange County news station) and was on the "Real Orange" news show with hosts Ed Arnold and Ann Pulice. I had a blast!
I have known Ed since I was a little girl, so it was great to be on the show with him. He is a wonderful man who has a great spirit and I had fun joking around with him before and after... we even tried to see how the crown would look on him! While I think he may be able to pull off the crown, I am not sure how he would do in the swimsuit competition?!?! I am trying to find the online post of the interview, but I haven't been successful yet... (Also, there are many more pics on the official website at http://misscalifornia.org/cbSite/2009MissCA.html )
Thank you to Eric Anderson for the pictures!
Saturday I had the opportunity to attend the Miss City of Orange pageant at Chapman University. This is always one of my favorite pageants to attend... Connie Benson puts on a seamless show and it was SO great to see so many titleholders in the audience! I was so excited to reconnect with many of my friends from the class of 2009. Congrats to Rachel Berry, Miss City of Orange 2010 and also to Dee Dee Saetia and Jenae Duran Miss GG Oustanding Teen who were crowned on Friday!
