Her "diet"

While I was chatting with the secretary of our department, our former director came in with--not surprisingly--a big tub of caramel popcorn. This she opened and good-naturely offered some to me and to the secretary. After each of us got more than handful, our former director who has long been trying to reduce weight explained to us that "kaunti lang ang calories nito (this has very little calories)" then disappeared into her office with the rest of the popcorn. I suppose she was referring to the number of calories per serving. But since it is apparent she would be consuming the rest of the popcorn all by herself, her point became virtually moot.

Now playing

Since I've been charged with providing keyboard accompaniment during the music seminar series I have been attending, I had to figure out the harmony for the songs that were emailed to me last Saturday. It so happens that one of the songs had really strange phrasing in one of its verses and consequently I had to play the piece over and over before I could come up with a chord progression that sounded satisfactory enough. The only trouble now is the refrain of that song now keeps playing over and over in my head!
