The long wait is
finally over!
Industry Research
Group (IRG) and Factset Industry in Taxonomy (FIT) won the dance competition in
our company’s Christmas party held last December 08, 2012 at Harbour Garden
Tent, Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel.

Out of four
participants coming from different towns, our team was proclaimed winner for the
Mob Dance Competition. Finally, all our effort has paid off; including our production loss
for weeks and our vast expenses before the contest. It was
unexpected since our department is new and our number is still growing as
compared to other towns.
What really makes us
proud is the triumph over a three-time champion in Factset for years.
FUNDAMENTALS team always brings home the bacon, given they have the largest number
and they have the most number of experienced dancers. However, what they showed last Christmas
party is but a mere dance number and nothing else. :)
On the other hand,
ours is a total package. We had a video presentation, a skit, and a sing and dance number. I am very proud
to tell the whole world that it was the grandest production number I did as a professional
(because I’m a college graduate now).
LOL.

------ Apologies: will upload the official video once I get a copy-----
I also want to share the extreme happiness doing this project because I was given a chance to perform again after being stagnant and motionless in the workplace. I really missed dancing - plus singing without my Chorale buddies. You don't know how much I love and miss both in every way. :D
So much for the narration. It's about time to say thank you to this following people.
The first person I want to thank is Ms. Lanie Caparas for her unremitting support, encouragement, and assistance. She didn't give up on us against all odds.
I want to thank Mr. Kim Nimrod Cruz for arranging the music for us and for paying attention to all our concerns. As a matter of fact, we are lucky for having him in this event. Thanks also to his very good friend, Mr. Carlo Garcia, for showcasing his guitar skills during the act and for handing us down the resources we needed.

I all so feel
grateful that we have Ms. Carose Bobbit Bautista and Mr. Marc Roden Ilagan as
both dancers and choreographer. Lastly, to all IRG Dancers who sacrificed time, effort, health and money just to make winning possible.
In spite of all the distress and difficulties that came across, we gave our heart into something that unites us. We believed that to become victorious it didn't requires great skill and expertise, but a heart willing to learn and brave enough to take the risk.
Gaining more friends
is far more important than winning. And I thanked God for showing me the way to
this event as a performer and as a friend.

We do not dance, we
PERFORM.
And that what makes
Big Whiskey Dancers a real winner.
