Yes, it is that time of the year when everything needs to be this week. One of my choir's major concerts is happening this Friday.  As part of the project team, I am up till the wee hours. Daily rehearsals are being conducted also.  Cramming ba kamo? Then, on Saturday, I am flying to Singapore to join Vic for the F1 race.  That means I need to pack for the weekend trip and make sure that the kids bags are packed also.  I am dropping them off at my in-laws' house before the concert.  They are still recovering from their illnesses, by the way. I am not even sure if they will get to see me before I leave since I'll be arriving home really late on Friday.  So, I am spending more time with them in between errands and other commitments. I still have to print out my ticket, find my passport, get pocket money from the bank, finalize sponsorship details with Red Crab, print tarp and program notes, pick-up skirting for the risers and finally, order food fo...

This is the reason why this blog hasn't gotten any updates. Our visitors have arrived and we've gone through the activities of Jan 6 and Jan 7 with no major setbacks. We've performed GP's arrangement of Better World and have enjoyed Kare Kare together. The members of all three choirs have warmed up to each other even if language is a barrier. The workshop turned out to be really successful. Our attendees doubled in number that's why we had to transfer to a bigger venue. We had a minor issue with the availability of materials but it was rectified just in time. Today is concert day and it is going to be big. We are expecting important personalities, several ambassadors and other dignitaries. It is just unfortunate that no one from the Japan Embassy can come and support our Japanese visitors. Oh well. This is it pansit!
