D&D...the virgin experience..

Before i forget my feelings for this virgin experience...i tot i shld pen it down and rmb how the Good Lord has blessed me.

This whole D&D has been a love-hate r/s....and alot of things happened during the planning stage or rather....after we planned so much with another theme, we were told to change the theme.CHange the theme...sure...but not with just A WEEK to change it! and I came up with more than 30 themes all to be rejected....because 1 particular boss...let's just call him.. Mr Last Minute...wants it his way. and hence...it was changed to WWW. Go figure. when i upload the pics..

So WWW it was. and we had less than 2months to get the whole D&D going. I felt the pressure and burden and because it was my 1st time planning it, plus nv attending any D&Ds before, I was really really worried. Lots of thoughts went thru my mind...like "What if the employees blamed me for the lousy theme? or...what if the employees think it was boring? wat if i couldn't do a better job den the last D&D?" and i knew tt my reputation was at stake.

What made it worse was tt the D&D kept changing...from 17th to 23rd to 30th dec and finally..7th jan.the last date was thanks to mr last minute.And it was frustrating not having a finalised date. But I knew deep in my heart tt God was in control of the whole situation and I know tt he will nv leave me in the lurch.

Committed the whole project into his hands and trusted in his perfect timing for everything.
And so....with just a few weeks left, there were so much not done, plus due to the 2 long weekends (Christmas and NY), and the fact tt i was away for my family trip, plus my mgr not following up with the crucial part, i know I had to work out something to make my props all set to go.

Then, with just 2 days to go, my other boss informed me tt I was to submit any expenses for this D&D so they can close the account for yr 2009. Can u imagine? All my plans had to be cramped into 2 days....but i had only 1 day because i had to use the other day to really list down all tt i needed to order. God...this was a test of faith.

So I prayed for wisdom....and trusted tt all tt i had bought wld be sufficient to make the event a success.

ANyway, to cut the story short....D&D was a SUCCESS!! and many commented tt it was 1 of THE BEST they had attended thus far...plus...they were so impressed with the layout of not just the ballroom....but also the foyer activities. Someone commented tt usually, nobody would be interested in taking part in any pre event games but this time, the majority was hopping from 1 stall to another. All tt i have heard thus far are nothing but praises and even the owners' rep was full of praises for it.

I have noone to give all glory to but to God only. Indeed, it's His favour tt the D&D cld be such a success and I owe it all to him!

Will upload pics soon!
