What happened at Oprah!!!

Well I didn't have my camera with me so I don't have any pictures so I will just tell everyone what happened. We started out my checking in. We had to go through security and they took our cell phones and they also took a pen from my purse. Then we went to a waiting room. While we were there they kept showing Oprah's favorite things on the big screen TV's so I was getting my hopes up that it was a sign, but it wasn't. We didn't get on the favorite things show but it was still really fun. They then called different parties to go down first, and they called ours. So we went downstairs to the studio and found out that they wanted us to sit in the front section. I think it was because we all wore a bright colored shirt. So if anyone goes to Oprah wear a bright plain shirt. I got to sit on the front row 2 feet from Oprah....and she talked to me!!! It really wasn't that big a deal but still. She asked me if I was the girl with the question and I said no she is pointing to the girl next to me. I sat on the right side of the girl that was part of the show. I wore a bright green shirt so watch for me. On to the topic. We were all a little bummed out because the topic of the show was substance abuse and they had Tatum O'Neal (sp?) on talking about being addicted to drugs so it was kind of a downer show. Half way through the show I did have to move seats because Tatum sat in my chair. When they show Oprah talking to her in the audience at the end of the show that was where I was sitting the girl right behind her was Megan the girl that got the tickets...by the way thanks Megan for getting tickets and letting me tag along...oh and thanks to Emily for inviting me. Over all it was a great experience and I had a lot of fun. The show airs on Friday.
