the one with the virgin
the entire team was so stressed out over space allocations and wet weather contingencies for the big event next tues that...*get this* we contemplated holding prayer rituals to hold the rain at bay...tadah!yes, the weary table of 8 sitting in the tower of an american mnc at seven pm on monday actually toyed with the notion of looking for a female virgin to wave some sort of special plant in the morning before commencing the outdoor set- up. zee mysterious method apparently worked wonders when the client had an event in bangkok during its monsoon season. *you don't say*
fortunately the thought of "locating" female virgins lasted less than 2 min. [but that's probably cos we don't know of anyone who would take on this fatal blow to her reputation in this little isle of i-know-you-who-know-you-you-you-too. and er..we don't wanna sound like pimps when sourcing for the talent "i need a female virgin".] absurd as the entire episode sounds, i do believe in rituals [esp during moments of desperation]. and it would've made such a fucking cool pre-event footage. i can see the press lines going "Virgin launches event with promise of sun. Meet Ms XX. Singapore's weather heroine."
but we got real [after 2 min of cracking up] and went back on track.
rain rain go away little johnny wants to play...rain rain go away little johnny wants to play...rain rain go away little bee just wants to get paid.
