people
Too many people try to please their parents. My parents were Republicans, which is too bad, but they allowed me to be who I wanted to be.
The problem with hanging on to the '60s is that everyone thought they would go on forever.
behind cultural enjoyed ethic hit money pop rest selling social songs
Starship was a whole different thing. It was pop rock. It made more money and had more hit songs than Airplane. There was no cultural or social ethic behind it. For me, it was like selling out. I was the only one selling out. The rest enjoyed doing what they were doing.

Queens is so often treated as a stepchild and labeled as an outer borough. At the very least, if I could help bring more attention to what we need, and what the federal government needs to do to improve the quality of life of people right here in Queens - any way that I can do that, I'm very happy to do that.
It's nice to be a woman, and it's nice to be an Asian. But what's more important is what I can bring back to my district.
There are many Asian-Americans who are living in poverty, especially our senior citizens.
accomplish excited federal level loved office state
I've loved being in legislative office on a state level, and I think on a federal level there are so many more opportunities. I'm so excited to accomplish more.
complete opposite politics raised taught
I was raised as a Christian, where all you're taught is to be humble, even if you did something right. Politics is the complete opposite of: you do something a little nice, and you tell everyone.
