Minda's note:
I am so excited for my upcoming interview on ABC! As all of you know, I had a wonderful experience working on cruise ships & loved my time there. I always felt that the crew, officers, and entertainers were responsible and diligent. I did not feel I was on a "party boat". I hope that my experiences are portrayed accurately, as I truly had the best time working on ships!
