MedChoir Past, Present and Future


It's a nice spring day in the city, thus, we all trooped to Brooklyn and went to the Sias' Flatbush apartment. I like the Flatbush neighborhood: the Jews, ghetto and decent-looking flats in one area. It's like having a patch of communities in a single area and its a Q train away from the city.

My caloric intake for this day was fulfilled in a single sitting, so to speak. We had liver pate for appetizers, pasta bolognese, a ref cake with nice chilled wine and a helping of Junior's cheesecake (the best in the planet...although Rico's baked cheesecake came a close second). Its fun because it's been a while since the last time I saw Pia and Harold. Jong even came...all the way from Rhode Island. Too bad, Leng was the only Y.O. (young ones) present. It was still fun to hang out with them. We were a bunch of altos and basses, so we didn't even tried a chord. But still, its nice to hang out with old and new friends.

We watched our old choir tour cds all day--that's how we missed each other. We whined most of the time for the aesthenic habitus we will never achieve again and the sound we have made back then. It was a rather nostalgic and restful afternoon. Perfect timing before I hit the books again tomorrow.
