I'd like to apologize about the insufficient sound system that evening. We tried our best to amplify effectively while still respecting Millennium Park's regulations, but did not succeed. I'm bummed because I would have loved for all those in attendance to perfectly hear Scattered Trees' live performance. You'll note in this video that we morphed from their live performance into a professional recording to better showcase their beautiful song. 2. We didn't have time to explain this in the video but during the "Our Town" moment we brought up all the Emily's in the crowd. (Emily is one of the main characters in the play.) So those are all girls named Emily (and one Eric who begged to be included :) up there leading the call and response. 3. Some of you have inquired about including the image of all the cell phones reflecting in The Bean sculpture. While it was a sight to behold that evening, it did not come across well on film.

Being inspired by the Beckoning of Lovely work of Amy Krouse Rosenthal in Chicago, and with their last gathering happening on 11.11.11 at the iconic 'Beans' - the blessed baton has been passed to some expat ladies with yellow umbrellas here in hong Kong. We are attempting to do a similar thing in the city of dragons, during the most popular day for couples and those wanting to feel the love, that is Valentine's Day. 14.02.2012 Stay tuned for more details leading up to Social Media Week, Hong Kong and for where this lovely gathering is going to be! :) This event will be a beautiful testament to the power of community, cooperation hope amongst strangers in the name of all things lovely and EVERYONE is invited!=

In which Caety discusses how she'll be turning 19 on Friday. She doesn't feel 19, but she's not sure anyone ever really feels their age, since they don't match the idea of the age that they have in their mind. They just remain themselves, and no sudden "19-year-old switch" gets turned on. Also, she considers what to do on her birthday, since she could go to The Beckoning of Lovely because it's not far away, but she's not sure if she will.
