Salam to all,
Agak lama jugak mendiamkan diri. Sejak dari awal November bz dengan group’s business plan. Kene buat planning straight for 2 years, 2009-2010. So, xleh lari. Itupun, kadang-kadang bila boss panggil discussion, kite buat muka toya je, sebb x larat nak join – discussionnye sometimes took more than 3-4 hours after 5pm. Tensen jugak!
Back to tajuk utama yg kite nak cerita. Oditionnye running quite well. As for madihahnye presentation or performance, she did well, but maybe nasib x menyebelahi dia kali ni. Dalam SMS tu, the organizer minta dtg register at 12.30pm kat JJ Bkt Tinggi. Tapi, bila sampai je kat kaunter pendaftaran, pendaftarannye dah tutup. Kena tunggu jam 2.30pm pulak! Ni kira utk sesi ke 2. Tanye punye tanye, jumlah penyertaan untuk central region ni ade 200++. Wow… ramainye. Actually, kite xde le xpect that much. The organizer claimed that taun ni bertambah penyertaannye. Yalahh, mungkin sebb tgk pada adiah yg di’offer’, sape x nak join kan? Manelah tau, naik2 atas stage, gedik sana sini skit + with luck dpt masuk preliminary round ke.. pun dah baguz..kihkihh..
A week b4 that, nak boost Madihahnye energy and confident level, kite buatkan la dia coklat, ‘home made’. Just to share with u all, ni la gamba coklat yg dah siap. Ade pistachio nut a.k.a kacang cerdik dlm coklat. Madihah’s favourite!
Ni malas nak masuk dlm acuan so hentam dlm loyang 4 segi. Dah masak, masukkan dlm loyang, simpan dlm peti kasi sejuk. Esok arinye baru potong. Dapat la bw ke ofis, kasi rasa.
Back to d story. As for d 1st session, total ade 42 org tgh menanti. Setiap sorang, cume diberi 2 minit utk buat persembahan. Lebih, kene cantas. 42 org x 2 minit = 82 minit = 1 jam 22 mini. Itu x termasuk masa celoteh pengacaranye petang tu. Menunggu ade participants yg ilang, dah amik masa setengah jam, tambah chit chat pengacara nak control the situation lagi 15 minit..mau 2 jam lebih menunggu utk sesi kedua. Sesi 1 start lebih kurang dlm kol 2 camtu. Dari 42 org tu, sepanjang odition berlangsung, jumlah peserta melayu adelah 7 orang. Majoriti anak2 cina yg masuk. Ade 1 perkara yg kite terkilan, masa sms organizer tanye pakaian utk odition, reply organizer – disney casual wear. Tapi, masa odition aritu, boleh dikatekan hampir 3/4 participant pakai full complete costume! MMmmm.. camne tu??? Xpela, gained xperience. As for Madihah, dia, tanye jugak tapi sebb situasi x membenarkan kite balik amik kostume, then tunggu je la.. Nanti kang kalau balik, takut terlepas ape2 plak. So, stay je la. At least, kite ade bw headgear gangling2 yg glamer tu + veil organza (kenelah pujuk Madihah..). Nak kasi dia bersemangat..
Utk persembahan, Madihah buat poem reading (lebih kurang la..) Actually, dia just read through d lyrics ” A Whole New World “- Sang by Princess Jasmine & Aladdin, with action and gesture lah kan. Tokok tambah skit, sebelum poem reading dia start, ade part dia gelek2 skit dlm gerakan 3 x 8 with background lagu – “Arabian Nights”, lagu tema cite Aladdin and the 40 Thieves. Thanks to Nal (my friend kat ofis, cameraman cum technician) – the pro dlm audio/video editing/shooting ni. Dia la yg tukang edit lagu2 just to fit the whole performance. Idea for the whole persembahan – contribute by K.Syid & K.Noni. Nak harapkan maknye ni, mane sempat nak pikir. Lepas Madihah gelek2, dia bow n greet everybody, termasuklah judges, introduce her self and start off with the poem reading. 1st para of d lyric – she read it in Mandarin. Part ni, kite surf through youtube, cari video lagu2 filem tu yg dinyanyikan dlm versi Mandarin (Thx to my parents yg skolahkan kite skolah kebangsaan Cina) then ajarkan Madihah sebut dengan pronaunciation – Ping Ying, yg betul. Alhamdulillah.. she said it very well! Kedengaran lah juga puji-pujian dr penonton (Kembang jugak bontot maknye, nenek dia pun ade (my dear mother – penyokong no 1), aciknye, aunty Malina (adik ipar) with bb awish.. uncle chu nye ponteng keje jap (he worked at DOME, JJ Bkt Tinggi) kuar tgk persembahan n support Madihah..heheee) Termasuk Madihah, start sesi 2 (after 20 minit breaks), dia adalah anak melayu yg ke 9 (kite rasa2 lah..). Madihah peserta no 2 dari 39 orang utk sesi 2 odition. Muka dia masa kuar dari sebalik tirai, nampak sgt stage fright. Tapi, bila lagu dah kuar, tetiba je dia start senyum… Cayalah!
So, towards d end, wpun x terpilih masuk utk preliminary round, ape yg mengagumkan, she did well! Bila tanye dia, nak masuk lagi taun depan, jwpnnye (sepantas kilat) of course! (siap nak simpan rambut panjang, penangan rambut pelesu – sponsorship from K.syid). Madihahnye kate2 impian, “Taun ni x dpt, taun depan kene dpt.” That’s da spirit my girl!
Till then
