Backstory: Wonder what turning 42 will bring?
By Lea Salonga February 29, 2012 Philippine Daily Inquirer Allow me to celebrate my birthday once again by writing about the fun-filled week that surrounded it. A girl turns 41 only once; might as well make the most of it! Rob and I, my brother Gerard and his wife DJ flew to Hong Kong on Tuesday, Feb. 21, in anticipation of the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra’s (HKPO) fundraiser the next night....

Backstory: Through the years...
By Lea Salonga February 23, 2012 Philippine Daily Inquirer  I turned 41 yesterday! Years ago, I promised myself I would never hide my age, and that I would greet each birthday with excitement. Besides, given that my career dates back to when dinosaurs ruled the earth (he-he), I wouldn’t be able to deny how old I am, anyway. Might as well celebrate with revelry! This vow has given me reason to...

Backstory: Memorable proposals
By Lea Salonga February 15, 2012 The Philippine Daily Inquirer  It’s officially Valentine’s Day as I write this, having just received from my husband Rob his “Day of Hearts” gifts: a dozen red Ecuadorian roses for me, and a small bucket of pink carnations for Nicole. We also got small, do-it-yourself toys that Rob got from Bungalow 300, a cute home store on Buencamino St. in Alabang, just off...

Backstory: Singers who just can’t sing
By Lea Salonga Philippine Daily Inquirer February 8, 2012  A friend recently lamented that watching TV had turned an otherwise perfect day into a nightmare. He had spent an afternoon enduring poor renditions of pop songs. I didn’t see the show—my afternoons are usually spent watching cartoons with my daughter—so I can’t say how it went. But I trust my friend, and I commiserate with him. No one...

Backstory: Random thoughts and a plea for artists
By Lea Salonga February 2, 2012 Philippine Daily Inquirer I am happy to report that my daughter Nicole is back to riding her scooter, thanks to brand-new protective gear courtesy of her uncle Victor Lirio. Her skinned elbow is all fine and good, but something I wouldn’t want her to experience again. *** She had her first ballet evaluation today. She’s at the most basic level possible, but...
