I sing the last note of song,then bow and head offstage. Everyone claps. I’m not surprised. The judges of Little Miss New York all smile. I know I’ll win. I get the gold in everything. Soccer,Art,Ballet,Gymnastics,Track,Hip Hop, Jazz,Singing, and now,pageants! I really don’t have any competition here. I mean,not to brag, but I have blonde hair,blue eyes,and fair skin. No one here has ALL of those things.

Finally, they announce the winners! “Third Place: Erica Winston” Not me,good news! “Second Place: Haley Nicoles” Oh good not-wait me?! I got silver? “First Place: Sadie Ballens!!!” “No not her! Sure she sang like an angel....But she has red hair,green eyes,and even GLASSES!” I scream and cry.

“Haley!” My mother whisper yells “This is no way for a 13 year old to act! Go up and accept your crown and sash!” I do but I sulk the whole time. This is the worst day of my life!!!
