My Parents' Choir

Nov. 18th, 2001 at 11:40 PM

I got back from my parents' choir performance. There are about 60 members altogether. As a hobbyist group, they sing _really_ well. A lot of their founding members are well known in the Asian Fine Arts and Cultural circles.

I had a program, but I was busy getting autographs from various choir members afterwards and a few people had left after a while. My Mom said she'd get the rest of the autographs for me tomorrow when they go to choir practice.

As a Trekkie, I always get an autograph. But it was a novel concept that made a lot of the choir members feel really really special =)

And the ones who were at my wedding still remember me as "The Bride" =D

I'm a Trekkie. Or I used to be, in a big way. I volunteered at local Star Trek conventions in uniform. We helped with crowd control and general event coordination with the Creation Convention staff (the company that Paramount contracts to run conventions). They _loved_ having free, reliable help and sometimes, we got to hang out backstage with the Guest Star afterwards. You ALWAYS try to get an autograph. Personalized if possible.

Sometimes, through our connections, we volunteered at other types of events. No matter where we were, if there were celebrities, dignitaries or just up-and-comers, we got autographs. It made the raising stars feel good about themselves and their performance, and we would have something to show that "we knew them when..." =D

So, I went around after the show last night to get autographs =)

Oh, okay... I wasn't getting the chior/autograph connection. I don't think I've ever gotten anyones autograph.
