And let the competition begin...

Interview Sunday!

Sunday was the day the actual competition began! You could feel a bit more tension in the morning, but as the day went on and girls were finished with their interviews, it was a relaxing but busy day!

My interview began at 4:10PM! YES PM!! I was "geeked" Saturday night when I went to bed late catching up on some work emails and posting photos - that I could finally sleep in! NO ~ of course I couldn’t sleep in ... 6am I was awake and ready to roll! lol! Tired of course, but didn’t feel it until after interview ;)- Thank Goodness

I wasn't supposed to be in hair and makeup until 1:30pm, but I went early so my room mate could rest a bit and to say a "Good Luck" to Kansas and Kentucky while they were getting theirs done.. well, Tamara and Joann said why not now, since your here and ready after KY & KS! So I was ready to rock at 1pm! LOL! With no where to go! LOL!

Anyway, Tamara Matthews ( Make-Up) and JoAnn Peterson (Hair) did an INCRECIBLE job!! My interview dress was incredible too!! I received a compliment from EACH judge on how gorgeous my interview dress was!! Good Job Mel! lol!

Anyway, My interview went EXTREMELY well!!! I had each judge laughing and relaxed! I felt 110% after leaving interview!! The interview portion of the competition is my favorite and went well!

Here are some photos...
