BritneySpears I guess this is what I wanted...
BritneySpears I didn't know this would be a dream come true.

BritneySpears It feels great. BritneySpears The CD is actually done BritneySpears and the record company has already pressed the CDs BritneySpears and we got a copy and it's really nice... BritneySpears really, really exciting. belle5555 Britney, is it true you were a Mousketeer? When was that and how old were you? BritneySpears Yes.
