finally, we made it!
the launching of Postscripts from Mindanao in New York yesterday turned out surprisingly well.
at dahil iba-ibang lahi ang dumalo, nagmistulang united nations mini-conference and launching. i am soo thankful and inspired too for all the kind words i got from the guests na kahit hindi pa nakarating ng pinas ang iba, napaka-sincere ng appreciation nila for the book.
thank God for all these blessings talaga.
i am also deeply indebted to edward busque (administrator of the hotel im staying) for the support i dint expect from a pinoy new yorker (super snob daw kasi sila d naman ah?)for giving me the launching venue free of charge at room (hotel) rate na parang nagbabakasyong kapatid lang! thx din as always for ms. marivir-the gorgeous power host, daughter niki as videographer/photographer, ms. marivic, cultural officer-consulate office in NY, staff, members and volunteers of lovin life ministry, ms madonna davidoff-the global pinay ilustrator na power puff lady din, bob-who doesnt want to be called robert til he finished his phd, and to alll who joined me when i thought there were only 3 attendees , myself included.
hay salamat po..pwede na ako manuod ng sex in the city..phantom..mag-shopping ng tag 2$ shirt sa new jersey thrift mall..oh
ouch may new jersey (un)official book launch din pala kami kanina..children's party aktwali yun pero nag-gate crashed kami at sabay insert ng book launch sa program..(tama ba naman yun?)
pero idea ng host ko yun, so its not my fault..
