Hello everyone!
Well, I'm just now getting all my thoughts together and managing to writing them all down.
As some of you know, I love to share my experiences so I'm sure I could write an entire book on my SCC experience.
I have so many highlights, but one of my favorites was on Thursday night.
There was no dinner on the SCC schedule, so me and a few girls (Tammi, Roberta, and Lea) decided to go out for dinner since the hotel's restaurants were, closed? :confused:
At first, we weren't sure where we were going to eat, but we heard that a other Tgirls were going to a restaurant called Wildfire, just across the way, so we thought we'd check it out.
After the afternoon sessions, we all went back to our rooms and changed into out "night out" dresses and outfits (see attached) and then met up at the hotel lobby to ride the shuttle bus.
Once we got to Wildfire, I was impressed with the establishment. The hostess was very courteous and the place was very nice. It was a dimmly lit casual dining style restaurant and the cuisine was a variety of steak, poultry, chops, and seafood.
The place was relatively busy, but we were immediately able to get a booth table in the corner of a large area in the back of the restaurant. As we walked to our table, we passed many customers already dining at their tables and nobody seemed to pay attention to us.
Once we sat down, our waitress kindly greeted us and took our drink orders.
While we waited for her to return, we looked at the menus, talked about how are day was and what we've done so far. We also talked about how much we were enjoying the conference and the people we've met.
As I was sitting among my new friends, it finally hit me. All that I've practiced (i.e. mannerisms, presentation, personality, confidence, etc, etc.) up to this point have finally come to fruition. :)
There was this tingling feeling once I realized that I have arrived and felt what its like to be a real woman.
I couldn't stop smiling as we ate and enjoyed our little girls night out. :hugs:
Once we were done with dinner, we went back to the hotel to get ready for the social event of the evening, Twinkledome. The event theme was "Rock of Ages" so it was a time to express yourself however you wanted to be. You can be goth, a rock star, new wave, punk, etc, etc. or anything that you chose to be and later on they would have a costume contest. :GD:
After we got back to the hotel, we all went back to our rooms to change. As soon as I got back to my room, I was very excited because this was the first time for me to be a little on my wild side. The costume I chose was a sexy school girl outfit (http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=53662&d=1189997764) and I couldn't wait to put in on. :heehee:
Once I got dressed, I met up with my girlfriends to take some pictures before heading out. As we were taking pictures, I was impressed at how pretty and sexy everyone looked. We were all having a great time posing for pictures and after we were done, we headed out.
Once we got to the ballroom music playing and there were lots and lots of Tgirls dancing and having a great time. I couldn't wait to get out there so once the next song began to play, me and Tammi and Lea went out on the floor and danced.
Now, I had some practice dancing as a girl and so I did my best to shake my thing and move to the rhythm of the beat.
They played song after song and so we kept dancing and dancing, and after awhile, the music stopped and it was announced that they will be starting the costume contest.
There was no formal entry so for anyone who wanted to participate all they had to do was line up on side near the dance floor stage.
Now, I had never done anything like this before, because in guy mode I'm generally a shy guy, but I figured I'd just let go and have fun with it so I lined up with about 15 other contestants.
The lovely MC would then call up one person up to the dance floor and there she would ask for each person's name and what their costume is. After that, she would have them do at little strut and then wait on the side.
Again this was the first time I had worn any kind of sexy costume, especially a school girl outfit, and so being in front of large group of people had my heart racing at 1000 beats a minute. :eek:
Once I got called up, I walked over to the MC, introduced myself, and strutted my stuff.
As I was doing my thing, I felt a sudden rush of excitement. It was such an amazing feeling to be in front of a large crowd and hearing them applaud, cheer, and whistle.
After the all the contestants were introducted, they paused for a few minutes while the judge made her decisions. For me, it was hard to pick the best costume because everyone looked really great.
Once the judge was done, they announced the three winners.
Unfortunately, I didn't win, but I had a great time being up in front of everyone.
When everything was over, they went right back to playing music and so me and the girls went right back to dancing and shaking our things.
As things were starting to wrap up, we all decided to call it a night so we gathered up our stuff, said goodbye, and head out. Even though my feet acking after doing all that dancing, I had such a wonderful time. Being able to dress up in a sexy costume, open up, and go in front of a large crowd was so exciting that I didn't want this amazing night to end.
As I was riding the elevator, I started to think back on how much I really enjoyed the whole day.
Earlier, I went to some really great seminars, went to some predinner social events, met new Tgirls, ate dinner with my new girl friends, danced, and entered in a costume contest.
What made it even more special is that, every now then, I would get a compliment on how lovely I looked or how cute my outfit was and to hear that was such a gratifying feeling.
Again, that was just one of several of my highlights of SCC, but that had to rank up there near the top of my list.
If the opportunity ever comes up, I think everyone (closet or out) should go to this at least once in their lifetime because its a GREAT time! :happy:
Hugs!
