Last Friday I attended the Cultural Day event of the Summer Club at Don Bosco’s. It was a great show with all the students putting up some dance or skit or show to entertain us. Even the coordinators had their own dance at the end. There was a snack break too during which a live band played for us all!

Above is a pic of the 4-6 batch dancing!

The Arabic dance got everyone real excited (and there were no Arabs around!). And it was funny to see the guy waving his sword around the ladies!

The fashion show was very good too! Didn’t realize that the boxes I carted there in the morning  contained all their costumes!

The Michael Jackson tribute was a mix of MJ’s greatest hits and started with my all time favorite… Billie Jean!

“The Centurion” is a play based on the life of St. Paul. June 28 08 till June 29 09 was declared The Pauline year by the Pope and this play was organised in honour of that. It was playing for 2 days in Salmiya so Ro and I decided to go for it. It was amazing.

The entire production involved over 75 people and was planned and practiced over the last 4 months. The actors included elders as well as children and it was great to see them all in such harmony.
I was very impressed with the level of professionalism not just on stage but even with the choir, lighting, sound effects and the stage management in general. And that stage was huge with balconies and ramps. Kudos to the entire team.

It will be playing at the City Cathedral this weekend and I highly recommend attending this to all. Go early and pick the seats closer to the front if you plan to take any shots.

Went for mass at St. Mary’s Church in Dubai yesterday. Couldn’t make out it was a church till I walked in. It was very crowded but very organised. There were people controlling the crowd and directing everyone. Its amazing to see that the benches are exactly the same as we have at Kuwait City. The service was very nice too. The only issue was the constant echo with the sound system.

This is a very creative crib at the Cathedral in Kuwait City. It includes the Kuwait Towers, the Liberation Tower, some of the distinct buildings around the city and looks like the First Ring Road project extends all the way there too.

The GLC Christmas celebration was a blast this Thursday. Lots of carols and plenty of spot prizes.
