Took part in a beauty contest for crossdressers at a club

[Guest melanie maritz]

This was in September, I wanted to post this sooner but I was really busy with exams and then later forgot about it.

I took part in a competition called "Miss Aqua"at Aqua nightclub. The competition was for two nights, one was casual wear and the other formal. I made a punkish tutu for the casual wear, because they said the competition was not just about looks but about what you wear, how you act and how confident you are.

I was so0o nervous! I even practised at home how I was going to walk on the stage and blow a kiss to the judges. My friend went with me to support me, oh I forgot to say, Aqua is a gay club so I wasn't stressed so much about the stares but more about being confident and exuding hot confidence on the stage.

At the back where me and the other contestants got ready, we got free drinks which was pretty nice because it helped calm the nerves but I already had a "fish bucket" before that so I only took one drink.

The name I picked for to be called when I got on stage was Jennifer, because it was actually supposed to be funky names like stripper names but I didn't know what else to pick. Anyway, when I got on stage I was smiling away, even waving at the crowd as they were cheering as if I was a celebrity. I couldn't blow a kiss to the judges because they were aparently part of the crowd but we weren't allowed to know who they were.

After the competition we had to stay till 4am because my sister's boyfriend DJ'd at the club till then.

I'm not proud to say this at all...but I got wasted. .totaally drunk and I ended up falling into a guys arms and he started kissing me. It was my first kiss and that was not how I wanted it to be. I wanted to tell him to stop but I didn't know how to say it in a nice way. my friend was also wasted and she wanted me to go on kissing this guy because she thought I needed it. I really didn't. Anyway, it turned out my sister knew him and she took me away from him.

So that's the end of the first night. I'm going to post the second night as a comment because my phone gets slowwer the longer the message I type.

Okay, so the second night I decided no more alcohol for me! It was mainly because my friend didn't want to get drunk alone and she feels she can't dance when she's sober that I decided the first night to just get drunk with her.

The second night the first wig I wore on the first night looked like crap after I was dancing madly because I was drunk so I used my second favorite one.

I was more confident the second night because I knew how things were going to work. You just walk onto the stage twice alone and then with all the cotestants at the end, but of course you have to act super sexy.

I was told that the crowd went the wildest for me when I came on stage and that even straight guys were shouting. I was very flattered ,but I did not win the competition, or get second or third place. I'm not really upset about that.

I mean, I enjoyed myself a lot! I could be myself , even dance as myself, all without having to worry much what people think since it was a gay club. It was really amazing.

The important point is that you had fun!! That is it in a nutshell!! Congratulations, you are going fine and dandy.

It is simply fun being out as yourself in a group. I first went public in gay bars. There are many stories attached to those evenings but i had fun if i remember correctly. Most important was just being me with others.

Hugs,
