     "It's just something I've wanted to do for so long," she says. "As Miss Teen USA one of my prizes was automatic entry into the Miss America pageant, but I was only 17 at the time and I knew I wasn't prepared then. I would have been competing against girls who were anywhere from 18 to 25. I've been obsessed with it for the past eight years. I need to get it out of my system before I get too old."
     Now 24, Hu is taking this challenge seriously. She's even made a lifestyle change. "I've started waking up early. Well, eight thirty, nine o'clock is early for me anyway. And I've started working out. I'll turn on Madonna really loud and bounce around my living room for an hour or two. My roommate just laughs. She thinks I'm nuts anyway."
     She has also gone back to a childhood passion--rollerskating. "I used to rollerskate competitively when I was a kid, but I never was any good. We competed like they do on ice skates. We did jumps and spins, like in freeskating, and figures and dance and speed. I even played hockey once, but I got smashed in the face with the ball and decided 'never again!'"
     She's also begun a new diet regimen. "I was a vegetarian for a little while, a nd it felt pretty good. I read this book called the Vitamin Bible. I was in this health phase. Some people experiment with drugs, I experimented with herbs and vitamins. I kind of OD'd on vitamin A and I turned completely orange. Worse than that, I was drinking chlorophyll, which was part of this diet. It was supposed to give you energy, and my pee was green! I swear to God, I was scared. I guess I overdid it a bit. I never went back to vegetarian or health diets. PAGE 3
