So it's been about a week since my last post. I had thanksgiving dinner here at my apartment with some of the other performers who live here. We had good food. It was very close to home! We did it potluck style and everyone chipped in something. Even those who couldn't really cook brought snacks or something. It was great. I loved the fact that those of us who were American got to share our holiday with those who were Australian, Japanese, Canadian, Russian, and English. It was a lot of fun. Although no one went over the history of the pilgrims and indians, we did go around the table and say what we were thankful for. Which was great. With so much gratitude in one room you just have to smile and be thankful yourself! After thanksgiving dinner I spent the rest of the week working on two things 1) working out to make sure I don't pack on too many holiday pounds (a few are to be expected, we're all human) and 2) rehearsing for an event I would be performing in. The rehearsal process was kinda crazy and a lot of things went wrong. One of my dancers pulled out, my choreographer got sick, a background singer pulled out and I kept changing people around. It was hard to get fill ins at the last minute but by the grace of God, everything came together! The show was a lot of fun. There was my number which was a performance of my song "Hold On" off of the 'Songs from my breakup' album, and there was a group number that included most of the female performers in the show. The events purpose was to raise money for a single mothers group here in Osaka. It felt really good to be a part of something giving to the community I've been living in and that has given so much to me. I had a great night and video footage will be coming soon! Hope you're all well......
