LINGER-ing moments...

Christmas party last saturday was great! the food was good. the peeps looked gorgeous, stunning (and glittery!) in their clothes. i bet the beauty parlors were packed that day! the staff presentation was super fun --- the crowd favorites were the QA-Engineering group, no doubt! it obviously became the highlight of the night. we missed recording it on aris' phone though. there were many good dancers from the production department and watching them made me wanna dance on my seat. yes, i was just enjoying the dancing from afar, along with john and adrian. we arrived at the staffhouse around 3:30 a.m. i got my max lucado book in the exchange gift. i won a desk fan in the raffle.

the next best thing for me in the party was the, should i call it, mini-concert. aris, edan, edward on guitars, john on "egg-shakers" (o_O) and tambourine, alfred on custom-designed "Denkins (mineral water) drums", and mark and me on vocals. this is one of my dream-fantasy. i admire live band performers on bars and wish i was like them too. it came true for me that night, to be able to sing in front of the crowd. a mixture of nervousness and excitement but the feeling was great during and after the set. we sang "torete", "as long as it matters", and "linger". it didn't matter to me if i missed some lines or probably went out of note. what matters is i did it, live band! wohoooo!!! we weren't able to perform our second set in the closing number because most of the people are already leaving and others are getting ready for the dance floor. there're still "She Will Be Loved", "Sway", "With or Without You" in the song line-up. but it's all well...this next best thing is enough to make my night. okay, i've changed my mind...this is my personal BEST thing for the night.
