Wow, congratulations to them all! I've been trying to write an article for the student newspaper about the UH winners, but I can only find the prizes for Jessica. Did Sibyl get a scholarship too? What did she get for winning popularity and talent? And, since I didn't get to attend the pageant, what did she do for her talent? Any help you can provide would be great, thanks! I hope they have a great time in China!

Naomi,

For her talent, Sibyl Wong played a classical Chinese string instrument called a guzheng. The beautiful piece she played was a Chinese number transliterated as "The Fisherman Singing in the Evening" ("Yu Zho Chang Man"). As you know, she won Miss Talent, and the "prizes" are the trophy and a sash. Sibyl also won Miss Popularity, and the subsequent prizes are: a trophy and sash, 2 roundtrip inter-island air tickets, AM/FM radio, one certificate of lessons in firearm education, 4 ice cream gift certificates, $100 scholarship, and a $25 Macy's gift certificate. Her prizes for winning First Princess include a long list of prizes, among which are a $500 scholarship, and tuition scholarship for 2007-2008 at HPU. The prizes for the Queen and Princesses are all listed in the 58th Annual Narcissus Festival booklet produced by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce of Hawaii.
