With the Miss Kansas USA pageant coming up in ONE month, it
really has become a huge part of my life at the moment. It has become the main
topic of conversation with family and friends on the rare occasions I do get
out and when I am not working or working on pageant preparations. Even people I
haven’t talked to or seen in years will bring it up because they have seen my
updates on social media. It has really become a thing.
I decided to post the questions I get asked a lot since I
started this adventure. You may have asked them already or have been wondering
the same things as others. So here we go!
When is the
competition?
November 28-30th. I’ll be heading there and
starting the day after Thanksgiving!
Where is it at?
Wichita, Kansas
When is the show?
That Sunday!
Will it be televised?
I don’t think so, but I am pretty sure they will have it
online. I will post about the details when I am informed!
Do you have a talent?
The Miss USA pageant does not include a talent portion in
the competition.
What happens next if
you were to win Miss Kansas USA?
I would compete in Miss USA representing Kansas proudly J
How many girls are
competing?
I am still unsure about the exact number, but I am thinking
it will be around 20!
What are you doing to
prep for it?
Working out a lot! I have been working with my diet and hitting
up the gym. I am now working on my knowledge of current events and
interviewing. I will soon start practicing my walks!
Have you found an
evening gown yet?
Yes, I have and I am absolutely in love with it. It’s
definitely MY dress. Almost feels like it was made for me. It fit my vision of
what I wanted for my evening gown. I will not post any pictures online until after the competition, but have showed people personally.
Are you still eating?
LOL. Yes.
Can anyone come to
support?
I am pretty sure. I am still waiting on information about tickets.
I will post details as soon as I get them!
What all do you have
to do in the competition?
There is an interview portion, swimming suit, evening gown,
and on stage question if I were to make it that far!
Are you
excited/nervous?
Yes and yes.
Do you have a coach?
No. I decided not to hire a coach. Instead, I have been
working with amazing friends on particular things. It has been such a cool
process and team effort. I will be writing about “my crew” soon. J
How much money do you
need to raise?
I needed to have $900 in sponsorships in which covers my
hotel stay, food, printing cots, etc. Then I have been raising funds beyond
that that has gone toward my dresses, swimsuit, makeup, and more.
You can still contribute to my adventure! I still need to do
dress alterations and purchase shoes, accessories, tanning, and extensions. You
can access my Go Fund Me page here: Go Fund Rachel
Don’t want to go that route? You can contact me personally!
Thank you to everyone that has contributed so far through
donations and sponsorships. I wouldn’t have been able to do this without you. I
have learned so much about different things and myself already and I haven’t
even made it to the competition weekend!
Have more questions? Just ask! J
Sparkle&Shine.
