After receiving emails from the GM's of Shangri-la,Delhi and Shanghai yesterday, I'm feeling somewhat restless, again.. The supposedly trip back to india after Jen's wedding might not push through because the GM plans to move and transfer, first quarter of next year. To where? He's still not sure. But knowing him as an "accurate" and reliable person, I'm sure in the end, Everything will be crystal clear ;-) . On the other note, Shanghai's GM is transferring early next week to Shangri-la, Beijing. My wish of going back to Shanghai might not come to reality since the one responsible for our longest contract ever, is moving to Beijing. I haven't told our pianist yet, about these "turn-overs". He lives in Iloilo and recently got affected by typhoon Frank. He keeps on texting me, even bought a SUN SIM card for unlimited call and text, Just to keep in touch and do follow-ups every now and then, regarding our next booking. I am concerned about the sudden outcome of opportunities. Just FYI, We we're given the chance to stay longer in Shangri-la,New Delhi as well as in Shangri-la, Shanghai, they offered us a one year contract after our stint in India, It was on my previous blogs. But we have to decline Shang, India's offer because of Jen's upcoming wedding. We even told Jen that if they're interested for just a DUO, Kim and I are willing to stay. I don't know if I have blogged about this, But I was offered to come back to Shangri-la, Shanghai, Just recently as a soloist. Well, technically as a DUO with Kim, since he plays piano and sings at the same time. The target date was last July 1, but for some reason, It didn't push through. One reason that kept bugging me is that maybe because I proposed to them to let me go home by third week of september, for me to attend Jen's entourage as I am part of it. While we were in India, Jen and I talked about my plans of continuing grabbing opportunities while they lasts (LOL) and told me, she's okay for me not to attend her wedding. Not that I'm all okay and happy not to be there on her "day" but Kim and I respected her decision to have her church wedding amidst all these great, rare opportunities and so, she's kind enough to let us pursue our own plans. Our agent offered us to sing in Macau, after India but we have to stick to being Trio and that we should find an immediate replacement for Jen. Still, we don't have the guts to replace her, Mind you, we've been working/singing together for like ages!LOL. Plus she didn't resign at all, She just told us that if we happen to have Duo and Solo offers, we can go our way and if after her wedding and we're still here in manila she's very much willing to travel and sing again with the trio. But I don't know why, maybe I was too confident that Shang would compromise, that I took the risk of proposing my plans and that maybe they would give in, since they want me to come back? .. ahhhhh... Now, I'm confused. There's this one offer I got, a Solo contract in Korea. Nice budget for me and the pianist, But again had to decline!.. because we were told that we'll go back to India after the wedding. haayy..paulit-ulit ng kwento!grrr..LOL..
Another offer I got was from Phoebe (a friend who sings in jakarta now), A solo contract in Bangkok, Thailand for August. You know what happened-- I declined!...hhmmmm.. You know why..LOL haaayyy..
But all things said, I know there's a reason why these things are happening. GOD will provide, I know. I am holding on to HIM. Well, Eversince!
With the rate things are going, I am now moving on and what i do here in Manila, I should try doing abroad and that's being a SOLOISTA. woohooo... Scared and excited I am! Well, I'm gonna do this for now, If I'll be offered again, I'll just grab it baybeh,LOL, But of course without being desperate. Have to be on the right, fair track, Y'all. I just can't wait till next year. I'll accept Solo bookings for now, Till the time we could be "Silhouette Trio" again...
I could sense the winds of change and opportunity coming soon. I know God will take us on a journey beyond our wildest imagination if we choose to stay open and follow His will.
Wish me luck, PrenshiFs, wherever the winds of change take me next.  | God has reasons for everything.. and i believe he's preparing something and he's doing something on your behalf... he just wants you to relax first and enjoy what ever you're having right now.. and when the right time comes he will give you the desire of your heart,..God's never early neither late but he is always on time... you have other things to do pa in manila that's why hindi ka pa pinaalis heheheheh.... but i believe God will you the best booking... amen prenshif! mwaaah! |
