I think everybody wants recognition, acknowledgment and fame. People wanted to be recognize for their achievement and to leave a legacy. But not all people have the change to have it. But everybody get a chance to a 15 minutes of fame. And it is human nature to feel proud of something be it small or big. I got my 15 minutes of fame when I got married at the Lighthouse. I was wearing this nice wedding dress that I brought from my country and as I walked in the park to where my wedding will take place people were congratulating me and admiring my gown. I felt like a celebrity. What is your 15 minutes of fame?

I think my 15 minutes of fame hit just recently. I won a contest for my favorite band to write a song about me. It's kind of crazy really. All of these people are finding me on the internet and are talking to me and what not. It's actually still happening, even though everything came to a head a few weeks ago. It's kind of funny actually.

Don't think I need fame. Don't think I want fame. Not so important. Look what it has done to Britney Spears for example. Yes she has money. And everyone knows who she is. And she IS currently a train wreck. No thank you not for me. No. For me my legacy will be my daughter. Trying to raise a decent human being. Someone who is happy and well adjusted. A contributer to society.
