My friend from high school just won the 2007 Miss NY Chinese Beauty Pageant.



I think it's amazing that she won (although, I knew she was a sure win). This association's beauty pageants are pretty famous in Chinese culture. I think it's crazy that someone I know won.

Have you ever known someone/were good friends with someone who gained some fame for something amazing? Did they accomplish something or achieved something that you think is so over your head? Like, save someone from a burning building or invent some crazy new thing that scientists are going gaga over?

This isn't really like knowing someone big but my good friend was friends with benefits with Journey's lead singer's niece.

Once, we were chilling and talking to this girl and a Journey song came on. I asked her if she knew the band Journey. She's like yeah. I asked if she knows who the lead singer is. She's like yeah. I told her that he had a niece and that my friend had banged her. She's like NO WAY.

Okay... nvm. Random story.
Whoa, what a web. oro.gif

Which game show? Wowowee? wink.gif
My aunt went on that! Apparently, she made a shout-out to my cousins and I. XD.gif

Umm, not quite famous, but I adore when my friends get on the news. Like, when the club's advisor's daughter was on the news for outstanding wrestling skills or 'small' stuff like that.
