Minute to Win It


So I'm getting ready for school one morning...late as usual. I'm listening to K-Bull 93 and doing my hair just like every morning. They announce, "Minute to Win It tryouts are coming to Utah this Saturday! Call in now and we'll take the first 3 callers to win VIP tickets to the front of the line!" I think to myself...."That would be the coolest thing I've ever done by far, but I don't have time...I'll make both me and Catherine late. Meh. What the heck." and I called in. I was one of the first three and they told me to get a glass of water and then put me on hold. They put us all on the air, live, and told us we had to gargle the ABC's in one minute to get tickets. (P.S. I dare you to try this....it's harder than it sounds). So even though there was some dumb girl who didn't do it..."What are we doing? We're gargling? When do we start? What's going on?!?" we all won VIP tickets to the front of the line at tryouts. I took my personal cousin, Kate, with me. It was quite the adventure. Right as we parked, we start walking to the building and I realized I locked my keys in my car....great. So we both called our trusty dad's and decided to wait til we were done to worry about it. The tryouts took about 15 minutes and all we had to do was talk about ourselves for 30 seconds....since neither of us got call backs, we think they didn't really like us. But it was still one of the most random things I've ever done in my life and it was a blast.
P.S. Kate's dad came after and rescued us. Just in case you were wondering.
