Alright, so, here’s another post (I’m in college, give me a break) hopefully it’ll be alright.
So! Pageant survival stuff. Okay… well… what topic do i need to cover? Ah, here’s one:
Look on the bright-side of life.
Okay, so, things in the pageant world can be kind of crazy to say the least, so, as a pageant boyfriend, it’s your job to not let that stuff get you down; or, you can let it get you down, and just be a pain to deal with. It’s so easy to look at things positively, here are a few examples:
1) when I was at the Miss KY pageant I had the good fortune of sitting next to an extremely sketchy guy who had waaaaay too much time on his hands. Over the course of the competition he talked to me about all the conspiracy theories surround MAO. Also, he had a list of who he thought would make top 10, true, he got 9/10 of them… but I think that just adds to the creepiness. I however, found this extremely humorous, and now have a good ice-breaker when it comes to pageant encounters.
2) The whole point behind pageants is to be so stylin’ it’s ridiculous (well, it’s not ridiculous to those actually doing the pageants, but we all know that there are just some times when we guys think “…what’s the point of that?”). So, that tends to mean: lavish hotels, good food, fancy clothes (and I know that being in jeans and a t-shirt is awesome, but it’s also great to look like a millionaire) important people (as a theatre major, I find that connections are VERY important – they come in handy when you really need a favor) and other such things.
3) Going to a pageant, or supporting your girlfriend who does go, earns you MAJOR “good-boyfriend” points. And we all know that’s never a bad thing.
