"Note: 48-HOUR CHALLENGE : Media Prompt Deadl..."

I enjoy WDC's birthday bash every year.

People from all over the world come together and celebrate. It's a huge party. And working behind the scenes, we have two people - SM and SMs.

What does it take, to mae a party successful?

1. Imagination. To think up, conceive the whole thing with a mix of old and new activities.
2. Preparation. Our leaders have been planning for weeks, months, for this.
3. Orchestration. Bringing all the different elements together in harmony.
4. Information. Getting people to know what's going on.
5. Participation. Getting people to log on and participate. That involves understanding what makes them participate and highlighting those aspects.
6. Perspiration. Hard work maintaining all the activities, keeping them going.
7. NO procrastination - all work done on time!


Yes, it takes a lot to make a good party.
We're blessed we have people who give a lot to we can have fun - and do a lot of learning, too! *Smile*

Tell me, Mistress Hoarder
What do you collect?
I hoard handbags
So I did detect! *Laugh*

You hoard handbags,
She hoards jars of honey
He hoards neckties
They hoard their money.

I wonder what pleasure
Hoarders get, keeping things?
What do they treasure
What joy do objects bring?

Why not, instead, hoard deeds
Acts of courage and kindness
Giving to those in need
Acts that leave you blessed

Hoard good manners
Hoard words of wisdom
Hoard love and friendship
The best treasures in the kingdom

Hoard! Hoard! Hoard healthy habits
Hoard helpful hands
Hoard honesty, hoard heroism
Hoard heaving husbands *Wink*

Hoard the virtues,
Hoard the intangibles
And then feel the gladness
Of which you're truly capable!

“You remind me of someone.”

I spoke as I accepted the bowl of chocolate mousse.

"Really?" he asked. "My hair, my eyes, my voice?"

"No. The fact that you don't like chocolate. Funny, isn't it? I didn't imagine that there are two people in the world who don't like chocolate, and to think I've met both of them!"

He laughed. "Where did you meet this other chocolate-anarchist?"

"At an advertising copywriter's workshop 20 years ago. It wasn't buffet, it was like we're now, getting fixed trays. I was next to him in line. We didn't know each other, but he just put his bowl of chocolate mousse into my plate. Kind of like you did now."

"Advertising copywriter's workshop. 20 years ago. Let me see. Was that at Manipal Hotel on St. Mark's Road?"

My jaw dropped.

He guffawed once more. "So there are NOT two chocolate-haters in this world after all. I retain my uniqueness in this matter, and I'm glad to make your acquaintance for the second time in each of our lives!"

I grinned. "I hope you keep hating chocolate and we keep finding ourselves getting acquainted!"
