but then I turned on Miss. Universe and all the deep stuff went out the window.
What has become of the pagent circuit? The girls are the same. Miss. Venezuela is still super tall and a volleyball player and Miss. USA was from Texas, but the hosts were Jerry Springer and Mel B from the Spice Girls. WHAT??
There they are in Vietnam cruising along Halong Bay, my dream destination, wearing sashes and laughing. It was just so wrong, but I didn't change the channel. Couldn't do it. I was totally rubber necking and watching the traffic accident.
And then, Miss. USA fell during the evening gown competition. It was shocking. I literally sat up, put my hand on my chest, and took one of those overly dramatic girly inhales. But she picked herself up, walked the circuit, and kept smiling. It was quite impressive.
This would have totally been a good lesson learning moment for a little girl, but I took something away from it too.
