  1. jaymie, thanks for these, i.e., the constant reminders, bull sessions, seminars, and most especially, for being flexible like moving the time earlier from 3am to 2 am. the heat these days is really draining and we experienced that first hand last sunday in nuvali.

    pampered na naman kami. pag hindi pa kami naka-finish successfully, ewan ko na lang.

    kudos to you and the tbr dream team!
