Malam Kebudayaan Melayu

Its over. But too fast, too soon.

Time just breezed past us. Only when we relaxed a little did we realise that it was almost over.

The day started off as chaotic as anyone of us expected. Especially Nazirul who had to arrange seatings and stuff. Doorgifts were packed nicely for all the guests, last minute touch-ups for the backdrop was done, chairs and tables were arranged neatly, and the hall was cleaned up as well.

Then nightfall came upon us. Its showtime!

Everything went well. Our guest enjoyed every minute of it and did not regret coming for it XD Our seniors even praised us for doing a great job!

The order of performances were:
Silat
Choir
Video Montage of MKM
Fusion
Choral
Performances by VI and MGS
Performance by Zainal Abidin
Asmaradana
Satu Suara with everyone on stage :)

After all those late nights, blood, sweat and tears, everything came into place. I am not just refering to choir. Fusion, asmaradana and even choral were a big hit during the event. Even though there was a whole lot of drama during practises, the excitement of that night made everything worth it.

The choir was:
Ms Hema, "perfect!"
Bin Han, "Awesome!"

Lolz!

It was particularly important to receive that comment from Bin Han because not only does he conduct choirs, he has received many awards for being a conductor and is even hired at times to conduct choirs! So yea, a praise coming from a master here really made my day.

Pose!!

Hey generasi muda...

Yellow scarf at the bottom? Thats me XD

Rentak sekata... go Zul!!

Boy, my tamil rapper! Yen tola!!

Kao tim!!! Dayat, my canton rapper

They look great right? T-shirt design by our very own Alep, and the scarves were my idea. The initial idea was to get everyone (in alternate order) colours of the Malaysian flags, blue, red, white and yellow. But since there was a shortage of yellow scarves, Sasha, Trixia and Eva bought only one yellow scarf for the conductor XD

I hated the colour, but now I am beginning to love it. Clever girls

They finally had energy, and they were so synchronized! Credits to Brandon for the moves. Speaking of credits, there are alot of people that deserve credit for the choir as well. Everyone in the choir contributed ideas XD

The choir team made another stage appearance during choral reading. The crowd loved it! After all that hard work, why wouldn't they right?

Choral reading lead by Sasha. Everyone in traditional outfits.

Harmony will then just be another historical memory....

Choral and choir were not the only ones that stole the show.

I bet silat was a hit. They used real parangs and sparks were flying everyway, literally!

Rahman (right) and his friend fighting backstage :p

Dance performances by the fusion and PGL group were just as awesome!

Fusion, staring Brandon and Sabrina in the centre

This was the only clear picture of them that I could find. I watched them from the side and they were great! Jeslyn finally had expression! Bin Han and I are so proud of her :)

Not forgetting of course the PGL dancers.

Puteri-puteri Gunung Ledang

The boys! Dayat was awesome!

Our celebrity guest was Zainal Abidin, who performed a few songs based on the crowd's requests

No comment...

The night came to an end with another choir performance of Satu Suara, this time, EVERYONE was on stage! At first it was hard to fit everyone on stage, but in the end, we managed :)

Everyone dengan satu suara

Tamil and canton rap!

Everything went well. There were a few hiccups along the way, but alls well ends well.

We were especially glad that our STE friends took the trouble to come for our event after we pestered them to over and over and over again. They all enjoyed the show, and had no regrets coming for it!

Herlina, Nordin, Trigo, Razi and Jon!

I have officially run out of things to say. Let the following random pictures and captions do the talking for me :p
