\u201cReal Housewives of Orange County\u201d newbie Elizabeth Lyn Vargas experienced a wild first reunion.<\/p>\n

The 45-year-old described the day to Page Six with three simple words: \u201cCrazy ass bitches!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, well, it was everything I wanted and more, like I just said,\u201d she said, laughing. \u201cIt was exactly like I thought it would be, even with the anxiety leading up to it. The anxiety during it, doing it \u2014 and it was quite interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

While her co-star Emily Simpson is known for making binders of the season\u2019s events to prepare for the reunion, Vargas told us tried to get her pre-reunion anxiety out with exercise \u2014 47 miles of running, to be exact, in the week leading up to the taping.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am an extreme person,\u201d she said. \u201cSo I had so much anxiety because I had heard horror stories like, \u2018You\u2019re going to get eaten alive,\u2019 \u2018Grow your chick balls,\u2019 \u2018You need to throw some punches.\u2019 I was like, \u2018Ooh!’\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Kelly Dodd\u2019s penchant for\u00a0making controversial comments, Vargas told us that the five-season tenured Housewife gave her the best advice.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cOh, just to be true to yourself,\u201d she said of what\u00a0the newly-minted Mrs. Leventhal\u00a0told her. \u201cI always listen to Kelly. It\u2019s crazy. She\u2019s always like, \u2018You do you. Stay true to yourself. Don\u2019t bulls\u2013t and just say it how it is and you\u2019ll be OK,\u2019 because when you\u2019re telling the truth about everything, the story comes out the same.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vargas said that after the COVID-19 pandemic, the election and\u00a0sharing her upbringing in a religious cult\u00a0with viewers, she wants to have some fun next season \u2014 if she\u2019s asked back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just want to wear some Spanx with Shannon under a bar drinking tequila,\u201d she said with a laugh. \u201cI want a season I can just have fun and travel with the girls and be a girl. So I hope that next season is kind of more, you know, loosey goosey fun!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Real Housewives of Orange County\u201d reunion airs Wednesday night at 9 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n
