gracias - the kiddie magic!!!!

today csa organised " GRACIAS 2007" (hope i got d spelling right)... it was a thanksgiving program given by the sponsored students of rajendranagar to us, the sponsorers. well it was an amazing event. people asked me if it was the kids idea to do this event, no it was our idea, but the kids also believed in it. they made thank u cards for all of us. they were so excited to be ther and actually perform in the main auditorium in front of a surprisingly large audience. a lot of time and effort had gone behind this. the volunteers, the kids, the n number of practice sessions and CHARLIE (3rd FEP) who despite being a non csa member was so enthusiastic about the whole program, he was a great help. the kids were excited throughout and were so grateful for being there. in one of the dances, the power was cut off and the music stopped, the girls performing for that piece were so confident. i am sure if i wud have been there, i definitely would have freakd out and pulled my hair.... but they were so confident and relaxed.. mann im dazed!!! and that dance turned out to be the best in the whole show. later when i was talking to one of the teachers who attended this show, she said the whole show was very realistic, the drama, the whole concept and environment. it was one of my few days which ended in lot of fun. when the kids went away, we(the volunteers) were pulling each others leg. we had so much fun. im just waiting with lot of expectations for gracias 2008.
