Monday night I got together with Valerie Smith (the current MO Czech-Slovak Queen)and Natasha Vavra (previously Florien, a past NE Czech-Slovak Queen and 2nd runner up at the national pageant.) They came to dinner with me and each brought a list of questions. We just practiced a bit and had some dinner. It was great to catch up with them and some great practice. Thanks to my private interview pageant coaches! :)
Sandy Ptak (Miss Czech-Slovak US) has made several trips to NE since her crowning in August. She has gotten very close to her little sister from the national pageant has come to spend time with her and her family. Whenever she is in town to visit she attents as many events as she can. Friend, NE presented her a key to the city this week as she calls this town just one more home (beyond her home in Alaska and her school home.) It was great to see the city honor her in this way. I wasn't sure that I would be able to make it to the ceremony as I had to work all day but they let me off early to head down there. We listened to the mayor present her the key to the city and she sang the song she sang in the national pageant for us "I Drove All Night" by Celine Dion in Czech. Then we had cookies and snacks. Shandra Korbelik and Erin Spicka came so it was fun talking to some past queens. They introduced me after her presentation and I invited everyone to Clarkson for the pageant. Laura made it a few mins after the ceremony because they are completely re-doing the float for Wilber and have to get it done for this weekend. EEK! Well better go back to work...I have LOTS to do before this weekend! It's time to practice my talent with all of my props...the stage hands are going to hate me.....
IT'S COMING TOO FAST...ONLY 3 DAYS!!!
