Being a Part of Her World ♥

First of all, I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to all those who helped me just so I can go to Manila and watch the second to the last show of Disney's The Little Mermaid. I didn't just go there to watch as a fan and friend of Rachelle Ann, but as a fan, patron, performer and director of the arts - theatre and music.

It was an adventure for me going there alone with very limited budget in my pocket, but I survived, and I enjoyed the show so much. In my 31 years of existence, I can say that it was perfect. From the songs, to the staging, to the orchestration (yes, a live orchestra), to the performances, to the sets and props, it was absolutely PERFECT!

Some people are born to play certain roles in their lifetime that no one else can. Shin was born to play Ariel, period. With all objectivity, she was so much better than the original Broadway Ariel (Sierra Boggess). She captured the spirit of Jodi Benson (the original Ariel in the cartoons) and made the character her own.

Bravo, Shin! Bravo, Direk Bobby & Direk Chari! Bravo, Erik! Bravo, Atlantis Productions! Bravo, everyone! You so more than deserve the standing ovation that you got in every performance! :)

Congratulations, Shin Shin!

7 years of friendship, and watching & hearing you perform, 

you really outdid yourself.

Soo proud of you!

Love you! ♥
