Hi Chris,

I am very shame with you, and with all the class. Last Wednesday I couldn't go to the class either.

I know, I must to be constant. I can't do it for this moment, I am trying to work here and especially for me, is difficult to found the places to work in my direction like a musician or a writer. Honestly, when I found something with my discipline I lost my head. Sorry.

The interview with the director was fine and I am in. Finally I am doing the music for the acting play and I really enjoy the work. Chris,I had a meeting and I couldn't finish the meeting early last Wednesday: I was worry for the class and I couldn't do it. I don't know how can I do to apologyze myself with you. I don't know if you are upset with all my things around, me always running. I want to say thanks for your tenacity in the class but I have to be honest, I have a lot of work now, fortunately.
I think that I can be free for the next class but I'm not sure, I don't know yet if I have to go to the reherasals, the opening will be on February 16 and they gave me a week (four days) to make the music. Result: I am affraid.

The play is named "Human Borders" the writer is Carlo's wife. Her name is Rubi Romero, she did a fantastic work with the languages, with both, including Spanish and English. The play has a ten percentage of Spanhis, so you can undestand. I used Carlos for the contact with the directora (he he). The opening will be on February 16 in the North Seattle Community College, there will be more dates for presentations on February 17, 23, 24 and March 2 and 3. All the presentations will be at 7:30 PM in the Theather of NSCC. I hope that you can listen my work again. The play is good but strong, a look into human trafficiknig between Mexico and the United States. Not at all the music is original but the work is strong. I am in the studio now trying to do my best effort. I hope to see you there. We are friends, lately.

Cheers,

Gaby

Hi Gaby
It is good that you are busy with your artistic endeavors. Please don't feel shamed. We miss you of course. I will try to get to your performance. There have been a couple of articles on NPR radio recently about the women and young girls being murdered and disappearing along the Mexican border towns. They didn't mention trafficking but I presume the murders are part of it. The work you are doing to make this situation more known will eventually bring the action necessary to change the situation. It is we as Americans that should feel ashamed that very little is being done at the moment. One might wonder where is our respect for human life when we tolerate the deaths of civilians in Iraq due to our action or inaction.
So keep up your work.
