Lets fly..!

Its been a sick week for me! I started off with flu last week. Followed by some stomach cramps i had. So I had only 2 days of school. N dat makes my Day 2 and Day4 un-pon-table for now. how sad :(

ok ok though i was sick, I'm glad that Im a lil bit better for the weekends! Coz we had da cuturephilic workshop. I must say this comm did a splendid job for the whole day event, though they did lots of last min changes n all, it all turned out good. The outcome is the most important yah.. N i bet the consequence met the objective. Oh well, they did get to know one another apart from their own clan of sub-IG.



Backbone of the event: the culturephilic comm.. Well Done~






N so there were 4 teams n i was selected to be Team 3's student leader. Together with Husniyah from tarian. She's nice. So u see, not only the kids, but the seniors like me got to know others as well. The participants were mainly Year 1s with bits of Year 2s, and I enjoyed myself leading the kids.

Hus N I in green. The leaders were asked to wear green. Oh, excuse Dan in the middle. He's always everywhere. Hahaha!







These are the kids. The initial phase was hard when u have to make them talk! They didnt know everyone yet so the paiseh2 was always there for most of them.







N I think they got at ease when its time for games. Coz its when u need teamwork n its shouting time. We played "step-up", the game.. that u have to step on others' balloons n protect yours. n our group won!







After all the get-to-know-one-another, the highlight of culturephilic began. Basically, we just had to learn the basics of all 4: dikir, tarian, silat n pentas.




So u can imagine how we got the silat boys to do tarian. Mcm transformers. hahaa! but its fun n i think everyone had good laughs.







Learning Tarian.

There are things like joget, lenggang and zapin. Its not easy to coordinate your movement of feet and hands at the same time! haha!










Learning Silat
There are things like bunga2, sabit n tojang. I wont talk much this la huh...










Learning Pentas

The person kept emphazing of words articulation. When ure on stage, u need to articulate ur dialogue. U need to be clear so u wont get the ppl turned off. N To be natural n not to act although ure on stage.










Learning Dikir

I always thought that tepuk sepuluh means clap 10 times. hahaha! i was wrong. There's a beat that u have to follow. N I think its not easy to focus at the beat n at the same time focusing the lyrics that u have to sing together.





There were some crazy games in betweens ofcourse.

N by the night, these kids had to perform, out of what they learn in the day! So there's a mixture of everything. 2 teams combined so there's only 2 large performing team.


Team 2 & 3:

Ze performance




Very entertaining. I like!
Ok so the bottom line is, the workshop was fun N learning malay cultures is nice! Really! Sometimes I wonder why some pple give this "eww" look at their faces when it comes to malay cultures. Oh well, its my roots anyways. =D
