One appearance I have had the pleasure of attending since I was 14, is the Houston Christmas Eve Super Feast. This is a huge event, where volunteers from all across Houston come together to serve a nice Christmas dinner to those in need. This event is particularly special because we have an opportunity to not only serve food, but to get to know some of the children waiting in line as we sign autographs.
My favorite story from this years event stars a little girl, much like most of the other girls I had seen that day. She comes running up to me with extreme excitement in her eyes, and I knew she was going to be a very special little girl. She asks me,. "Are you a superstar?" Not really sure how to answer this question I responded with a question, "Well I am a queen, does that make me a superstar?" And without missing a beat she said, "Of course! I knew it! You ARE a superstar." But then I asked her if she was a superstar too, and she bowed her head slightly and replied that she was not a superstar just a normal girl. I looked her in the eyes and said, "You look like a superstar to me! Definitely a superstar." The biggest smile spread across her face and as she ran off I heard her say, "You are RIGHT! I am a superstar!"
I want to thank Duc Nugyen for setting this event up every year. Although you couldn't be there with us this year we love you and appreciate everything you do! THANKS!
