Where to begin...

I have a lot of things to share here. But maybe I should just start with what is happening to me recently huh? Since its the end of May 2005..maybe I should share on my most meaningful experiences.
May was APAH (Asian / Pacific-islander American Heritage) month. I have been an APIC (Asian / Pacific Islander Connection) member with my cmpany for almost 2 years and thought this year, I would contribute substantially to this group. A group which I thought at first was just some Chinese, Filipino fiesta group and I said to myself, 'What the heck...just join lah..cos I am asian anyway'.
2 years later, I am a steering committee member for this group and I met a number of Indonesians, Chinese Malaysians and some other nationalities which I thought would never be mentioned in the group.
So...how have I been useful to this group? I helped put together an Indonesian Event called 'Gamelan Sekar Jaya'. It turned out to be an awesome and the most popular turnout for the entire month of Events!
And how has this group been useful to me? Inner satisfaction...that at least I could call this event one of my own with collaboration of others who are just as important in the group as me. So what if its Indonesian and not Malay? My great grannies were from Indonesia and I am sure the Gamelan is a universal tradition in the Malay community too.
Next year's event? Hopefully a Malay Wedding!!!!!!!! I am trying to fight for a calender space for this.
