Miss Delaware gave a speach during the opening ceremony in which she talked about goal-setting. Her perspective is that if people aren't laughing at you when you tell them what you plan to do, you aren't setting your goals high enough.

She used her own experiences as examples when people laughed at her goals. First, when planning to major in chemical engineering in college, and, after successfully completing that goal, telling her co-workers at Dupont about her plan to become Miss Delaware. I guess she got the last laugh twice!
