the increase of cost can really dampen the spirits. we sat there for quite a while in silence. stress began to build in. but still we know that we have to stand strong and have the faith that we are able to get those funds.
i guess most of you who have organized events before will know how this feels ;) all sort of costs just pop out from nowhere... oh well. *pfft*
we are firm on charging not more than NZD45.00 for the tickets - but it also would mean that we are gonna lose quite a big sum of money.
but it's okay - we are still working out the budget - whatever it is, food must be enough, deco must be fantastic, transport must be provided - and everyone has a good time!
so tmrw night will be a long night for me as i work on the grant application and proposal. you want the sponsorship, you better make sure you present yourself worthy of that sponsorship ;)
our sponsorship team is ready to go BLITZKREIG! on potential sponsors - just waiting for me to finish the proposal. Hehe. sorry guys for taking so long but i'll definitely get it done tmrw even if it means that i am not sleeping ;)
anyway, i was feeling a bit down about the cost and ya, can't help but frown. thankfully, out-of-nowhere, Bernard came over and in all his enthusiasm, started to brief me on what his team will be doing.
exciting exciting exciting!
i was encouraged to hear that the team was enjoying themselves and also got things planned out.
thanks Bern for dropping by just at the right time!
Bern, or as some ppl call him Bernie, is one of my good friends here in CHCH. He's really funny - man, you should see him at the meetings ;)
Bern, i just want to say thank you for your commitment and effort that you are putting into this event - and i'm really looking forward to see what your team is going to deliver. it's gonna be exciting!
once again, thank you for all that you have done as a friend and brother;
and as one of the team leaders in Malam.
you are a great guy with a great heart!

but when i think of God and the people who are walking together in this journey
it's not that hard anymore :)
