Performing my talent "Unchained Melody." 
Evening Gown.I had a rough week that week - I had just had all four wisdom teeth taken out two weeks before state. I had lost so much weight, I was 100 pounds at Miss Virginia. Believe me, I didn't want to be! Nothing fit - it was nightmare. My gown had to be pinned to my pantyhose so it would stay up! I also caught a bunch of flack every time we'd go somewhere to eat. I was eating like crazy because it was the first solid food I'd had! Some people were making comments like, "You're so skinny and eating so much. What are you doing? Throwing up in your room?" My Director got SO MAD! I just kicked her under the table and continued, "Nope. I'm enjoying eating so much, I think I'll have another piece of cake. Do you want that?" That shut them up! LOL! In the end, my Directors were told afterwards that there was a tie for 10th spot and I was one of the three - but I didn't get the spot. Oh well. That was tough to hear, but also encouraging. I was proud to be there!
