FIRST OFF, GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS TO YOUR MOST IMPERIAL MAJESTIES, HONORED GUESTS, LADIES, AND GENTLEMEN. ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, THE COLLEGE OF MONARCHS, AND MEMBER- SHIP OF THE IMPERIAL ROYAL SOVEREIGN COURT OF THE DESERT EMPIRE INC, AM PRIVILEGED TO WEL- COME YOU ALL TO THE PRODUCTION OF A DREAM, CORONATION 21 “HOLOKU BALL: PROM STYLE” WITH OUR HOSTS THE 20TH ELECTED EMPEROR MIKEY K CHOY-FOO AND THE 20TH ELECTED EMPRESS MIDORI ICE.
BEING THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTOR’S HAS PROVED TO BE A CHALLENGING YET REWARD- ING EXPERIENCE. EVEN THOUGH I SWORE UP AND DOWN THAT I WOULD NOT SIT ON THE BOARD AFTER STEPPING DOWN AS EMPRESS 19, I FOUND MYSELF AS THE ONLY NOMINEE. FROM THE HAPPY MOMENTS THRU THE BOARD’S SADDEST, BEING THE HEAD OF THE ORGANIZATION, YOU ARE ALWAYS WORRYING ABOUT THAT CHOPPING BLOCK, NOT JUST FOR MYSELF BUT FOR MY BOARD ESPECIALLY. THIS YEAR, OUR MONARCHS TRIED A DIFFERENT APPROACH AND ALLOWED INDIVIDUALS TO GROW PERSONALLY, AND FOR OTHERS, REALIZE THE BOARD IS NOT WHERE THEY WANT/SHOULD BE. WE ALL HAVE OUR STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES, AND LIKE I REMIND OTHERS, THOUGH I MAY HAVE A LOUD VOICE, I STILL CRINGE WHENEV- ER A MICROPHONE IS PASSED MY WAY.
AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, WE LOST ANOTHER MEMBER OF OUR COLLEGE OF MONARCHS, EMPRESS 16 OF LAS VEGAS AND EMPRESS 3 OF DALLAS, LESLIE MICHAELS. PERSONALLY, LESLIE WAS THE FIRST EMPRESS OF LAS VEGAS I ENCOUNTERED AND WAS COMPLETELY MESMERIZED BY. THE CROWN, HER HAIR, SMILE, WIT...JUST EVERYTHING HAD ME WANTING TO BE JUST LIKE HER. SHE HELPED SHAPED THE EMPRESS I BECAME, AND I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL TO HER – MAY SHE CONTINUE TO SHINE HER LIGHT DOWN UPON US ALL.
TO OUR FIRST TIME, OUT OF TOWN GUESTS, THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO COME AND VISIT US. I HOPE YOU ARE GETTING A FEEL FOR LAS VEGAS, AND I HOPE LAS VEGAS HAS HAD A FEEL OF YOU (WINK WINK). AS ALWAYS, TO OUR RETURNING GUESTS, YOU HAVE A HOME HERE. WE LOOK FORWARD TO HOSTING YOU, SHOWING YOU OUR SIGHTS AND INTRODUCING YOU TO SOME OF
OUR FRIENDS AROUND THE COMMUNITY. SO, SIT BACK AND ENJOY AN EVENING OF FUN AND LAUGHTER, CREATING MEMORIES THAT WILL LAST FOR YEARS TO COME.
IN SUPPORT OF THE COMMUNITY AND THE LAS VEGAS COURT, WITH SINCERITY AND KINDNESS ALWAYS,
MISTY WAYVES
EMPRESS 19
