Line Ups

Now that I am [more] rested, I thought you would enjoy reading about line-ups and what this lottery system is all about.

This weekend was the Miss California group selection process. This means that through a lottery system we are able to pick our own position in a group. There are four groups- Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta- and there are 14 spots available in each group.

I wanted to be in the Delta group because of the nights I get to do certain competitions and the day of my interview. The way Miss California organized the lottery system was by classifying talents so that we have a well balanced show while still allowing girls to choose their spots. (We wouldn’t want 12 opera singers picking the same night.) I was classified as “other” because I am a musician. There were 3 categories: Dance, Vocal, and Other. The “other” category included monologues, gymnastics, instruments, and other exotic routines like aerial acrobatics. I am very satisfied with my selection of Delta 3, and I have a wonderful journey to look forward to!
