hi everyone, i hope everything will go smoothly this weekend for all of u... thanks for the cool stuff btw :) reme, omg i love 'always in my heart'! i believe it was composed in 1942 but i can only take a guess who [else] sung it -- perry como (although he came about 2 decades later), but what i do know's both tommy dorsey and glenn miller bands were the first to have their hands on it... hmm.. what do i recommend when the rain's outside, it's almost midnite and [i] left [my] CD player in the car? lol i love questions like this actually, if u have a musical instrument hidden somewhere in the house, that might do the trick, OR sing. yup, sing and dance to your own tune, that's what i'd do. i recommend 'moonlight serenade' for u...
live 8 was a huge success plus my prediction came true, i was on tv!!! (not on 'america's most wanted' pls ;) i was looking around for some souvenirs and got pissed off (didnt have a wink that night so i was in a pissy mood) with a couple guys who were breathing down my neck, i turned and lo!, it was the WB17 crew!
... on the down side (everybody has one), a couple nights ago, a fishbone got stuck in my throat and i did everything i could -- i mean everything. i didnt do any grocery shopping so i just swallowed anything i could push down my throat i.e. canola oil, metamucil, stale bread, frozen cake, sticky rice etc and when those didnt work, i threw up (cant outline them all or you'd be too grossed out ;) finally, at 11 pm, i found myself walking in the st to buy a banana (i ended up swallowing all 4 but even that didnt help). anyway, i didnt wanna go to the hosp for something as minute as a fishbone ('though literally, it was quite big) so who did i end up with? the greatest physician of all... God definitely heard me and comforted me as i looked out the window at 2 am whimpering. i was such a baby but just think about it: a sharp needle right in the middle of your throat: cant speak, cant laugh, cant cry, cant shout, cant turn your head sideways... it was literally a thorn in the flesh. well really, men are great comforters but God is indescribably cool. i'm just glad that saga's ended.
last week, i was offered to be co-editor/photographer for the city's newest [4-1-1] newsletter :) i have no experience but this is another challenge i'd like to take. at first, i was reluctant to take such a responsibility coz u all notice, i misspell words when i'm tired (i spell misspell right, no? jk!) and i can be grammatically erroneous.. bah who cares, i'm just co-editing (i'm interviewing ben, a painter and teacher who hates star wars), and there's the matter of photography, i havent even taken a class but we'll see.. it's their film and camera, if i mess up, might as well mess up good :) i'm just thrilled that i'm officially a photographer, thank u thank u... which reminds me once again, i've taken pics of live 8 and stuff using a disposable camera so when i send the pics, go easy on me!
i'm attaching an invite... my cousin's getting married!!! yay!!! PLUS i designed the invite, yup, moi, yours truly... my first ever wedding design, cool huh!
email when u all can and take care! i gotta go!
all my love.
