Saturday blast

I had a nice Saturday last weekend (28 July 2007).

Morning, 9-12 noon. I attended a livelihood seminar - Gift-wrapping and packaging seminar. I learned how to make paper bags from scratch, how to wrap wine bottles and design giftwraps for ordinary boxes.

The speaker also gave us tips about which wrappers to use for different types of items/gifts. She showed us how to handle different materials such as sinamay, abaca, non-woven cloth, cellophane, papel de hapon, etc. She demonstrated how to make bows and ribbons using plastic ribbons and paper twines. I really enjoyed this seminar. There were about 25 of us half of which are senior-citizens already. But those ladies amazingly worked faster and had better-looking stuff than us. Haha!

Afternoon. My honey and I left for Alabang after lunch. We did one must-do, to bring our Aiwa component to Solid Service for its long-needed repair. It was our first time to go to this center but we did not take long to find its location. Thank God for websites!

Then off we went to SM Southmall to get tickets for the Don Moen Concert at the Araneta Coliseum.

In this concert, his new album, the "Hiding place" was featured. Nice songs. We bought the CD after the show.

The concert started ON TIME! Boy, was I so glad! Don Moen came out in the stage at exactly 8pm. This was our 3rd time to watch Don Moen but still he was mesmerizing. I love all the songs. He did a healing prayer too. Glory to God!

We tried to follow Dom Moen in the backstage right after the concert. But the guards were so strict. We were hoping Don would sign our "Thank You Lord" DVD. Well... anyway...

We were out of the coliseum a little after 10pm. We went to the car and immediately played the CD and heard 'He never sleeps' once again. It was really a nice song:

- He Never Sleeps -

by Claire Cloninger & Don Moen

When You've prayed every prayer that you know how to pray.

Just remember the Lord will hear and answer is on it's way.

Our God is able. He is mighty. He is faithful.

And He never sleeps He never slumbers.

He never tires of hearing our prayer.

When we are weak He becomes stronger.

So rest in His love and cast all of your cares on Him.

Do you feel that the Lord has forgotten your need.

Just remember that God is always working in ways you cannot see.

Our God is able. He is mighty. He is faithful.

And He never sleeps He never slumbers.

He never tires of hearing our prayer.

When we are weak He becomes stronger.

So rest in His love and cast all of your cares on Him.

===================

We decided not to go home yet. We went to Klownz, a comedy bar. We had a nice time there. We were laughing to the end. Don't know but when it comes to comedy, I think gay people delivers them best. Its so natural for them. There was singing, dancing and lots of comedy. Allan K is good and I like the 3-gay people (forgot their names already) who stood as his back-up.

We left Klownz at past 1am and got home at almost 3pm. Love it!
