RPT SEASON 7 FINALE

After attending my ex-student's wedding feast, my friend and I went to roam around town.

Since we didn't have much to do, we'd decided to go to Dewan Masyarakat Tawau to watch the Realiti Pilihan Tawau Season 7 Finale.

Frankly, I seldom listen to Tawau FM, yet, since they had this so-called a reality show to dig for new talents back in my hometown, then credit should be given for that purpose.

Being on air for 7 seasons (equals to 7 years), I believe, this local reality show has matured enough and perhaps it also has its own fans who support the show endlessly.

The moment I stepped into DMT, the red carpet ala ABPBH nite captured my attention. 

Kelas ko Mariah... ada red carpet siap ada backdrop you! 

Not even that, the super huge LCD tv was located at the foyer too.

Yup, that's it. Kalu dlm dewan penuh, ko tgklah screen tv yg di luar kunuk.

The show was just started when I came in. So the first contestant was singing. I dis not know his name. Well, I was just a listener, so for me, he could sing well (of course he did, or else he would be disqualified at the beginning, you moron!).

Then, the next contestants came up. There were only 4 of them, sadly I barely knew their names. My bad...

This only female contestant sang Teristimewa by Adibah Noor. Siap ada 

back up singer yer!

Supporters siap bawak banner. Ko mampo?

The only contestant I knew was Mujahid. This 20 year old lad sang well too. A bit bias? Well, I know him and he had the biggest fans that night.

Oklah Muja... Macam artis kan. Tapi, frankly, the ala video clip presentation was so yesterday!

Muja main organ ka piano? Motep cewek tu duduk tgh2 stage?

Die hard fans = Kipas susah mati

What caught my attention was this t-shirt. It was printed in two version, Black with white wordings and white with black wordings! Meriah!!!

Hah ko! Siap ada t-shirt printed for fans ni! Beli ka or bagi free jak ni?

Done with the solo performance, the finalists sang in duets with the previous winners. 

All of them did well in the singing part. Yet, I think that the 'ala video clip' performance was really yesterday. Sorry...

MC kan...

There was this finalist who used the long white cloth and some red flowers were put all over the cloth. But, he sang in a so-called fence together with his duet. Then, what's the purpose of putting white cloth and flowers in front?


The former winners performed while waiting for the result. They were good singers too. I bet some of them could go far, yet, KL is just too far from Tawau. So, I guess, their talents were still not discovered yet.

Tarian selingan la pulak kan...

The scene in the hall was turned into blue when the former winners sang Salam Terakhir, a tribute to the second season winner, who had passed away, mmm... which I do not have any idea about it. My deepest condolence.

Salam Terakhir...

Finally, the moment of truth. Once again supporters had gone mad while waiting for the result.

Congratulations to Muja. He swept away the champion, best performance and most happening supporters. To other finalists, congrats for being in the finals too. You deserve it!  

I wish you all the best in your singing career. Do not stop here, chase your dream to be a superstar out there and make Tawau proud of you.

Baliklah... Tilam dan bantal menunggu tu...

p/s: I have recorded the result scene, yet I can't upload it here. How?

COTI....!

Today is Friday, 6 April.


So, what?


Today is.....

Motep tunjuk gambar kasut?

Today's mode?

BERMALAS-MALAS

In fact, I'm updating my blog on my bed (and still not taking my bath yet!). 

Aiyak! Hapalah....!!!

Enjoy your long weekend, Sabahans & Sarawakians!

MEETING TIME

Updating live from the meeting room in my school!

Ko ada bilik meeting macam ni punya grand?

I used to like meetings. For me, a meeting is the best way to discuss and find the best solutions for discussed matters.

Mo meeting, meeting betul-betul, posing sakan bahapa?

Anyhow, I really hate meetings now. 

And I would find an excuse just not to attend.

I guess, to attend meetings late in the afternoon will not bring any good to me. I am exhausted to stay back in school since morning, and this will hamper my focus for the agenda discussed.

What more if it's a one-man show meeting?

Woit!!!! Listen to me.....!

 Oppppppsssss.... larikssssssssss!

TAKDE MYKAD = GANTUNG

I met my ex-student for afternoon tea.

We talked about many things; study, school and all the boring stuffs.

Until, I threw a question to him.

"Have you got your mykad?"

"Mmmm... ntahlah sir. Ni lah masalahnya ni. Nada mykad, suma pon tak boleh. Kalu ada ic kan senang, ndaklah gantung macam ni."

Sian dia... masih tadak ic.

True! No mykad is 'gantung', means you can't do anything!

Pity him...
 
I feel sorry for him. His appearance nowadays can tell that what a huge problem lies ahead him now.

Hello, I also got mykad, you know!!!

My ex-student's case is just one in a million similar cases in Sabah. They were born in  Sabah, both parents are Malaysian, the other sibling hold citizenship, yet, they don't have theirs!

So, how?

These children cannot further their study in tertiary level. They also cannot apply for any vacant to work since application is only opened for Malaysians only. An the end of the day, they stay at home, do nothing!

It's not that they have never tried anything to solve the problem. They had gone to the authorities for many times. Countless officers had they met. Not to mention, thousands ringgit spent just to get citizenship. And the usual reply the got from the officers, "Just wait!" To their vain, nothing was change! 

Something has to be done to overcome this problem. Perhaps, the stakeholders need to bring the matter up. The voices from these people need to be heard.


Otherwise, the mykad problem in Sabah remains inconclusive. And who knows, someday, our own kids will face the same difficulty.


We don't want 'gantung', do we?

Help! Help!

     

EXTENDED CLASS

My school has made it a compulsory for exam classes students to go back at 3pm from Monday to Thursday.

Pulangan...! Pulangan...!

We call this 'extended class'.

This means, teachers who are teaching these classes also have to go back at that time. 


Sounds terrible?

Pity the boys. They are bored to death!

Well, I guess, it was very hard in the beginning. Students and teachers are starving, they have no mood, exhausted and the major problem is my school doesn't have enough class rooms to occupy all (we have the afternoon session too).


But, since January until today, I think I am comfortable with this change. More teaching periods mean that I can do many things in class.
In addition, I can complete the syllabus to teach and perhaps I can do as many drilling exercises as I wish to prepare my students before the real examination. 

The most important part is, I don't make the extended class 'heavy' as it will kill my students' interest!


In short, changes do bring benefits, sometime.

Peace...!

WHY I HATE 1 APRIL?

Tadaaaaaa.... it's 1st April!

Today is 1st April.

So, what's the big deal with the date?

Honestly, I hate the date.

But, why?

I had a few unforgettable moments happened on this date.

Moment 1

It was a bright sunny day, when I decided to jog around the campus area. My friends, who had promised to jog along, could not make it at the very last minute. Hate them so much!

Mmm... me in my jogging outfit.

As I was jogging, suddenly, BUMP...! 

I was hit by a car from behind. The last thing I could remember was that I was flying on the air before I fell into a big drain. 


I was unconcious for almost a week!


Damn the driver! I could not walk for almost a year. 

What??? What look-look???

If I were to meet him now, I will hit him the way he hit me before!


Moment 2

Back in my uni years, I tried many things. 


I happened to meet a talent scout when I was hanging out in KL with my best buddies. The talent scout offered me a role in a tv commercial.

Without much hesitation, I said yes to him.

A week later, he brought me to a location for shooting. After a few takes, I could handle the pressure of 'action and cut', the shooting was really a succeed. 

I was not there, in the make up room for touch up

I got my payment, and walla... shopping time!

I was so eager to watch myself in tv. Yet, nothing came out. 

Where the hell was my add?

I called the company, and to my vain, I was informed that the tv add would only be aired in Congo! What???

Damn the talent scout, the producer, and the add itself!!!

I was turning into a red-eyed monster!!!

I believe, if it was aired in Malaysia, I would be famous in a blink of an eye!!! 


And that is why I hate 1st April, you fool!


HAPPY APRIL FOOL!!!  

Jangan marrrrahhhhh, nanti kena jual!!!!
