.International Cultural Day 2012.

CAUTION: IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG POST!

Salam~ Hi everybody~ This International Cultural Day happened like a week ago and I wanted to blog about this like a day after the event (so that i won't forget even a lil bit detail of that awesome day) but i guess i didn't have much time~ Hehe! So here we are! This event was the most awesome coolest the best event i've ever attend, i must say! and to be part of the crew was perfect! 

Preparation

Seriously, i didn't have much sleep and i literally did not study much during those three epic days. We (me n housemates) joined the crew a lil bit late but still there were so much things to do. We came to GMN centre (where we gathered around to finish things off) early in the morning and went back to our house like 12AM to 2AM. I know it's quite long since there were so many things to do but we had fun seriously. We met new friends and joked around. Worked and ate together. It's fun!

D-Day

Without having much sleep, we went to Malaysian booth very early in the morning. As we were all already assigned with our own duty, we immediately got busy. Well, i was appointed as DJ. When they asked me whether i wanna be the music controller or not before the event, without thinking twice, i accepted the job. My undeniable love to music! Hohohoho! Seriously, i didn't really know what to do at first. But it got better with time~ The thing is, i do have some regret accepting this job. Cause all i did was sitting on a chair and played some traditional musics plus Chinese and Indian musics. I can't really focus on other cool things our guests did like spontaneous rope jumping match, kugiran n others.

Karaoke

Never thought there were so much singing talent here in Mansoura. Yup. We even have karaoke party! And of course i was the one who in charged with taking song requests. Since i'm not really a malay-songs lover especially those evergreen songs and whatsoever, i was at loss when they requested me some unfamiliar songs. Thanks to a senior who lent me his harddisk fulled of karaoke songs (the hardisk was broken cause of some freakin virus. my laptop was affected as well and i'm very sorry for him). 

In-Hall Event

Epic!! We, Malaysian who live in Mansoura, Egypt, were very proud of our country! We sang the loudest national anthem than the other 6 countries. And also we cheered the loudest during the Malaysian performances! We beat all those other countries! YEAH~ here's the Zapin performance by the way~

Not as good as pro but still made us proud maaah! Zapin FTW!

The so-called high class stage prepared by some Arab's company and Malaysian crews~

All Malaysian crews in charged with the stage&hall together with fellow performers

Booth

Pictures will tell us all~

 

Board that my housemate, Amal, made~ Cute right? Since we were out of idea ( they don't usually come at 3 o'clock in the morning, don't they? XD) i just put anything that came out of my mind like "Awak gemok". And one of my Arab friend told Amal (since she's in charged with the section) that some of the Arabic grammar were wrong. And i was like,"BRING IT ON! WHICH PART HUH??"

The "Other" ethnics section like Kadazan next to Chinese section~ All were handmade! 

Indian's section. Things at Indian's wedding ceremony~ I don't really know what each thing means

We have Malaysian foods cooking demonstration outside the booth~ Again, i dunno what kind of food they prepared~ haha! so busy maaah~

We had fake wedding ceremony (but the couples were all married so don't worry~)! Got problem searching for lagu kahwin for a while. It won't be a prob if i was told beforehand but it's okay~ hoho!

Games section! Dam~ We also had congkak and batu seremban~

What we call this? Bamboo jumping?? *google search* Ok..it's bamboo dance~ hehe~

LOL at his face expression! Picture credit to Taqi Cronoz! Cool pic~

I painted the rocket and the moon~ Just saying~ AHahahhaha~ 

During the night of the event~ So many people at Malaysian booth. And i heard from my friends that some Arabs came three times to our booth. Morning, evening and then at night. Haha!

Kugiran team~ I dunno whether their presence were planned or not! Haha! First, they performed outside of the hall and gained some crowd over there. And then they came at our booth and things were becoming more fun and mood were elevated. We were all singing to "Rasa Sayang Hey" and other songs! 

Booth Crew FTW! The event was successful cause you work so hard! ♥

Ehem. Non-related picture. This was after a circus show we attended. A boring one. Sekian~

That's all i guess~ And oh! We were covered in Arab's news. Nothing to brag on even they captured me on the news. I didn't even know they were filming us. Isogashi isogashi~

Till we meet again~ bye bye~
