MUO, #hireme please!

MUO as in Miss Universe Organization. My dream job is to be be a publicist for the organization, so what am I gonna do? Keep on truckin'. But I would honestly love any job in any pageant system. That would be the ultimate dream come true for me. 

Hopefully you avoided my tweets on friday/saturday night, but it was the 2013 Miss Teen USA pageant. 

I was 10 for 16 on the top 16 and 3 out of 5 on the bottom five.

So why am I not getting hired somewhere yet?

Also my tweets? I'd like to think I'm pretty funny.

The winner?

Raise your hand if you've learned more about pageants from reading my blog because otherwise you'd be clueless!

My best friend, Miss USA

Make sure you check out my blog biff Lauren's take on our super fab 24 hour blog date in DC. I keep rereading it because I would love anything to go back to those two days. It made my summer!
*****

Where do I begin? Maybe at the part that B called in sick to work (shhh) to come with me? Or maybe that he brought me chocolate covered gummy bears FOR BREAKFAST (which is my guilty pleasure)? Ok, that sounds about right. An early morning filled with excitement in the air. I was so excited. More excited than you've probably ever been. Not even kidding....After a train ride and running through the city we made it to 8th and 51st street. Can I get an Amen? Fab, thanks!

So I fangirl-ed. Hard. First off, before she got there I realized I was the oldest one there (besides parents). A girl who won a title in CT was there, a little girl who was with her rents, and two middle school girls who were somehow related to Miss USA (not too sure). But all I was thinking was How do they have twitters? They're like five....*I won this free trip through a twitter contest!!!!!* I of course put on my Alyssa Campanella phone case so people would realize how obsessed I am with pageants. In addition to drinking sbucks, I was off the walls bouncing. B wanted to punch me in the face multiple times, I'm sure. I was screaming/crying/singing/rambling. Maybe everyone wanted to ductape my mouth shut now that I think about it. I invited my pageant friend, Sam, along too and I was freaking out she wouldn't make it in time. SORRY TRYING TO NOT BORE YOU....Overall I was upset because noone was as excited as I was to be there. I saw Miss USA, Erin Brady, and cried. I get it I AM PATHETIC. I was so so so happy though. Since it's been a dream to meet a Miss USA. I introduced myself to her and she was like "Yeah I've seen your tweets before" and I showed her my Alyssa phone case. She laughed. Scooooooore! 

We were allowed to ask her questions and noone did but me. But I was lovin' every second of it. However, I was disappointed because 1. The tour was only 50 minutes when they said it would be an hour and a half and 2. They promised us pics and autographs and they only gave us one picture and they pushed her right out of there, and 3. the tour was lame. we didn't get to see much!!! I was upset but it was definitely a once in a life time experience for me. Also, even B can say he's met Miss USA. He is a trooper for coming with me and making my day the best it could be. I didn't want anyone else by my side that day (because he understands my craziness more than anyone ever) and I'm so happy with how it turned out!

4Ft teddy's and some birthday shenans

It's beyond me that I turned on some Christmas music in august when writing this post. Merry August 7th! 7-3=4. My birthday was three days ago! 19 yo. Putting on them big girl panties. I can legally buy tobacco in the dirty Jers. because obviously that is what I'm doing. (read: NOT). I bet your reading this and thinking gah this girls blog I follow, she is a child compared to me! Sorry! You are not old. I'm just young. Think of me like you think of the grandma's and grandpa's on facebook. Appreciated but sometimes not necessary. Couldn't even tell you what I'm saying right now. I miss the days of being home ALL day staring at my computer refreshing blogger, waiting for a new post to stalk. Now that I have my last minute camp day job before heading to school, I have zilch (0) blog relaxing time. 

Back to the birthday shenans. It wasn't stellar but turned out in the end to rock my world. 

I didn't get the presents I wanted but I did get a tiffany necklace (nothing too glammy. thank gosh, so not me), and a BirchBox subscription (hi sister because I know you will eventually read this). Also B's present? L-O-L. Like actually I'm confused but its cute. and It's large. and it's sitting on my bed. Awkwardly far enough away from me that it doesn't a) take up my bed and b) creep me out in the middle of the night. 

A four foot giant teddy bear. Literally what. Thats all I have been saying. 

The card made me all warm and giggly inside though because he actually thinks its cute that I sleep with his clothes as blanket. I am a child. #Notsorry. Also shout out to the error in the message. Ten points to gryffindor if you figure it out. Aka everyone gets a point because it is easy-peasy to detect! B's mom told me she suggested a monogram travel bag. I don't know why he didn't listen to her but alrighty B, you do you. Also he gave me chocolate covered gummy bears in THE MORNING (breakfast) on the way to Miss USA (post to come friday). He knows how much I love chocolate covered gummy bears. Especially for b-fast. Super nutritious right? Aren't gummy bears like, their own food group? ;)

Cue awkward #ootd. My mirror selfies just weren't havin it on my birthday. Sup to my monogram necklace, Joyce Leslie lace shorts, and American Apparel Leotard. 

A face you've never seen before on my blog I'm assuming, right?

Icky photos but love my big sister and our boyfriends. (She stole the good side. Grrrr)

Go check out her fancy shmancy blog and buy some affordable yet WAY trendy post cards. 

So happy I got to celebrate it with my family.

And ended my birthday with some friendly's ice cream. Heck yes.

And then Monday I got to meet Miss USA....dream.come.true. 

Check back on Friday's post!!!!!

Why I'm lovin this week mucho

Went to DC with Lauren and boyfriends and had an AMAZING TIME! I can't even explain how awesome it was. So I'm going to wait until I post about it and show you a few pictures that I love.

Shout out to Lauren's awesome camera ;) 

P.S: go get my new button ;)

While in DC, I entered in a twitter contest to ask Miss USA questions to be put in a prize raffle to win a chance to MEET her. and get to go on a double decker bus with her as she talks about why she loves DC. HOW AMAZING. If you know me, you know how excited I am. Whenever I think about it I just want to start crying/screaming/singing some happy songs (Like Cruise by FGL) because this is going to be an awesome day. I hope B gets off work (since it's the day after my birthday) and I would love nothing more than to have him by my side :)

ALSO while in DC (See, DC rocks my socks) I got a call about a last minute camp counselor job. And I got it! I start today! So as you are reading this im experiencing the 'awkward new counselor' syndrome. Erg. But I'm getting paid and then its my birthday weekend (Don't worry nothing exciting even is planned. Had my fun while it lasted). 

Yesterday, I went college shopping. HOLLA. and now I am stress free and lovin it. Counting down the dayssssss aka 20. And B leaves on the 17th. Super wah.

Xo. Enjoy your fridays!

Make sure to come back sunday to send me some bday lurvvvvin ;)

Here's one more - I couldn't resist!

And the winner is...

If you ever are extremely bored and want someone to talk your ear off, contact me and ask about pageants. I am obsessed. I was rooting for Alabama from the start and she was only the first runner up. Congrats to Connecticut! I, like many of my other friends, did NOT see that coming.  

If you ask any of my friends, they will tell you I am crazily obsessed with pageants. As well as damn proud to be Alyssa Campanella's number one fan! 

So sometimes I think I'm funnier than people think I am...

...After loosing three followers, I want to share with you all my favorite tweets of my own from the night.

1. whoever let PA in was drunk #sorrynotsorry.

2. You can go shave your back now, Bye texas.

3. It's ok. I hate all my tweets too. I just can't help my over excitement. I love pageants, incase you had no clue

4. Shout out to the 3 people that unfollowed me during #missusa. You're loss, kiddos. Welp here's til waiting til August for Teen USA tweets!

My friends posts about me:

1.Happy I'm not with Rachel watching Miss USA....still recovering from Miss America

2. Ok it's official Rachel has the best pageant tweets

Thought Alabama had it in the bag the whole time. Oh well.

So here's to waiting 365 more days until Miss USA 2014. On the bright side, Miss Teen USA is in August! 

Also check out/advertise with Pageant Spotlight. A website great for businesses or people to get their names out there, as well as an opportunity for pageant girls who need help to cover pageant expenses.

I know you might pass by and think, psh they don't need my money. But they do. If you can even donate a few dollars to the person of your choice (once their applications are loaded), you are helping change a girls life. 

M.I.A, and some favies of mine

psh. please don't tell me you've never heard anyone abbreviate some words to make them sound like a total girl (read: totes, legit, fabbyfab, ya get the point). Hi! After some roadblocks and by roadblocks I mean brain farts for blogging, and a busy week, I am ready to relax.

1. beach day: got so lucky! Didn't read past page 8, but it will become my summer read!

2. twins: what do you think? (we're not actually related...)

3. change: of hair color as usual. You can't tell but it has a super red tint to it which is odd because the box said dark brown. yooooooou liaaaaaar!

see what i've been checkin' out this past week:

-Miss USA for PETA. they're all just really great people, and I think if you don't appreciate animals, you need to look more into this and STOP wearing animals!

-Wanna go to Disney? Me too. 

-Old school Fall Out Boy. YEEEEES. cue my weird scene wanna be days

-Best vines. Wasted away a good hour watching these. Sadly, some of them are hilarious too!

-I've been eating cowtales (super yum) and craving some chocolate covered gummy bears (a must have)!

**

My butt will be glued to the couch for ever on sunday. Miss USA. 9PM. Be there. or be me, and wish you were there. 

Chug a beer with Miss Illinois (JK)

Alright if you know ANYTHING about pageants you know that girls during pageants cannot drink. Silly Luke Bryan! But it's ok Luke, I still think you're hot anyway and I'd sit in Suntan city catchin' these rays with you.

ANYWAY...this upcoming weekend (Sunday night) is the Miss USA 2013 pageant. *Screams like a little girl on the top of her lungs* Yea, I'm beyond excited. Last year, it was during prom weekend and I made everyone watch, even the guys. I let them poke fun about it at dinner before hand, but before I knew it, there boy eyes were glued to the screen. Yuppppp, just what I thought!

This year, there themed photo shoot was The Great Gatsby. Fadil Berisha is a photo genuis. They all looked so beautiful. If you are interested you can check out their headshots here to judge for yourself or wait til show time and see my obnoxious freak out tweets via @rgord. I've lost many followers this way and I'm damn proud of it. 

Here's who I like (based on their photos), and in no order:

 Michigan. Hellooooo eyebrows! I want!

New York. Graduated from the school I'm transferring from. 

She is gorgeous though! I'm so excited for her!

Oklahoma

Idaho

Rhode Island

New Jersey. I'm a jersey girl so this is basically obligatory...but she does look gorgeous!

Hope you tune in sunday too! Who do you think will win?

Heyyy Alyssa (Miss USA 2011)...how did you get here? :P
