The Number Of Times I

When I Started Getting So Many Haters And Closed Doors, I Decided To Prove That It Could Be Done. I Was A Divorced Single Mother Of Three At The Time And A Size 12 - Not Your Typical Model Artist That Labels Feel Work For The Music Industry.

Usually, When A Young Girl Is Pregnant, She Drops Out Of School And Concentrates On Being A Mother. I Thought Thats What I Had To Do, But My Counselors Told Me There Was No Way They Would Let Me Drop Out. I Had Too Much Promise.

Thank You For Accepting Me As I Am, With My Virtues And Defects.

If I Had The Opportunity To Speak To A Young Immigrant Girl That Just Arrived To The U.s. The Advice I Would Have For Her Would Be: Ask, Speak, Search; Because There Are Opportunities Out There. And, Know That You Aren't The Only Immigrant Or The Last To Come To This Country. Many That Have Come Before You Have Succeeded. It Is Possible.

I Realized Going Back And Writing And Explaining In Details The Difficulties I Had Lived Actually Became Emotional Again. It's Like Therapy But Sometimes Therapy Can Be Painful. But It's Part Of Life And Part Of The Autobiography So I'll Have To Finish It Sooner Or Later.
