The Extended Family

So you know Lionel, Kevin, Asami and I but we're not the only ones that make the magic work. There are a few people that hide behind the scenes.

Let's start with Jern. If you were stuck on an island with one person, the friendly, optimistic Jern would be a good person to have with you. Displaying a very warm personality and never failing to not smile, she has the character traits for helping to manage The Limelight event. The most recent event, Sunday Sessions ran so effectively, not only because of Asami's highly organised Japanese skills but with the help of Jern.
Just like Kevin, Asami and I, Jern enjoys her alcohol. The 4 of us have had drinking sessions where we do the stupidest things, that we later regret when photos come up on facebook. This picture is a good example. Jern doesn't (always) look like that when she drinks though, this picture was staged.
Then, there's Vivien. I attempted to put up an unflattering picture of her at first but she forbade me from doing so and justified her response by saying "i need to find suitors". To be fair to Vivien, she was just kidding.
This blog (and all its html rubbish) and The Limelight posters are all Vivien's doing. Quiet but kind and very considerate of others, Vivien is good to have in the team. Lionel, especially, likes people like Vivien because of how cooperative she is (and how much she listens to him). Not only that, she is also a very good friend and has agreed to join my future band and embarrass herself on stage with me.
Here is Alvin, murdering a duck. He's the scariest (scarier than Lionel) of us all.

No, not really. Alvin, is probably the most helpful and generous of us all. He willingly washes the dishes after a meal, drives us all home if we need the lift and is a really affectionate person. Also, because of all his social connections, if you happen to see The Limelight posters around Melbourne city, the person responsible is Alvin.

So there you have it. And the best part is...

We have so much fun together :)
