Raising Shirlyn

A little bird told me about this while I was at Timbre last night, so excuse me for rushing this out.

"Another reason to get Farce FaceBook la, deh.." my friend says.

Bah.

So we all know that my sis, Shirlyn, is embarking on her journey to be a fully qualified yoga teacher. I don't need to say again how her gigs at Timbre and Wala has sustained many of us for the countless weekends beginning on Thursdays.

Yes. Her fees have been paid. Yes. Airfare has been taken care of. There's the little detail of expenses though.. And this is where I suspect many of her friends have came in to assist.

If you ever came across her on FaceBook, at the smoking corner, in the neighbourhood...you'll be there on Monday.
