Fiddler on the Roof

Three hours. Some parts were dragging. Didn’t like the actress who played Tzeitel (Samantha Sewell) ‘coz she somewhat lacked expression/feeling [aside: the next day, I found out I know Sam pala --- she's a niece of Betty whom we were with in Bicol almost two years ago. Nyah!]. Cris Villongco as Hodel was good; I liked her clear voice. Miguel Faustmann as 
Tevye carried the entire show — he was really great and funny that I consider the musical a good watch na rin.
My high school classmate, Danielle Barredo, and her sister, Cara Barredo, were also in the cast.
Two bothersome incidental matters:
1. It was awfully cold at the OnStage 2/F Greenbelt.
2. The people who "stole" our seats after the mid-break despite us leaving a program to indicate said seats were taken. Yes, we came back around 5 minutes late…still, no excuse to get our seats immediately. Sana wait naman at least 30 mins to ‘decide’ na hindi na talaga siguro babalik those who previously sat on the chairs you’re gonna transfer to. Hay, manners, manners!

On this very special season of Christmas, it is often forgotten that the real meaning of the celebration is the fact that our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, was born into this world to give the greatest gift to mankind. Hence, the idea of gift giving is to honor Jesus Christ for He has given us a gift that we can never repay.
This Christmas Season, we are launching a novel way to give to the Ateneo Annual Fund. We have set up a Christmas Tree at the lobby of Xavier Hall with NO decorations at the onset. For a P200 donation, one is given the opportunity to hang a Christmas ornament which will be personalized with a name of the donor’s choice. Our goal is to transform this plain tree into a Christmas tree truly representative of the generous and caring spirit of the entire Ateneo community. Further, to symbolize our unity with the University’s Sesquicentennial celebration which culminates in 2009, we plan to install at least 150 Christmas ornaments on the AAF Christmas tree.
If your heart is compelled to remember Christmas in its true essence of giving, simply go to the GS, HS and LS Cashiers’ Offices or visit us at the Office of University Development & Alumni Relations, Room 213 Xavier Hall, and share with us your donation until December 21, 2007. If you prefer to personally hang the Christmas décor on the tree, you can come and do so the day after you make your donation. On January 7, we will take the tree down and you are free to get the Christmas décor that was on the tree as souvenir of your participation in this effort. You may even want to hang it on your family Christmas tree next year.
