We Did It
We were so excited. First we got into the finals. Then the judges announced that we won the first prize for Christmas decoration. All we did was to cut the picture into 196 pieces and each of us took a few pieces to paint. And when we put them together, we got this awesome montage. Truely amazing.
Several people told me that we won not so much because of the montage. It was the little write-up I posted yesterday. I displayed a copy of it near the montage and many who read it were touched by what they read.
Indeed we, especially me, wanted this Christmas to be special. It is my last in MAS. I am going to miss my department. It is a young department and they have really given me the strength of their youth.
Derek was very sweet. He dropped me this note shortly after the results were announced.
"kudos to you! the moment you floated the idea, i was confident that it would take top spot as long as everyone cooperated. and we did!"
