2 days ago, which was friday, I skipped tuition and went to school to help out with the work for the Hari Raya and Teachers' Day Celebration on Saturday. Helped Lutfi doing some Audio Visual things like editting the flashback videos, creating slides, etc.
In the afternoon, I went to the mall with Yap, Hean, Shien, AC, Sabrina and Hannah. Ate at funbread and went to coffee bean to have a drink. Chit-chatted until 30 mins before our movie, 'The Perfect Getaway' begin. Lepak-ing around the top floor until nearly time then we entered the cinema. The movie was quite nice but a bit scary, a type of action/adventurous and thriller type. Went home after the movie ended. After having a bath and dinner, I rushed to tuition again at 7pm. Was very tired that night. Felt pity for Lutfi as he ended up doing the AV stuffs on his own in the afternoon. He asked me to help out but I promised friends to go out like 3 days before the day already.
On Saturday morning, I went to school at around 7am. Went straight into the Auditorium upon arrived to set up my lappy and stuffs. Soon, performers from year 8, students from MA 4~PU1 and teachers went into the Audi. The ICT comittee and some main comittees sat at the side wing to control the events whereas almost all students sat on the ground, some at the other wing and teachers sat at the green chairs behind. The celebrations began with Audio Visual. Flashbacks of the Teachers' Day celebration from 2007 and 2008 were projected on the white screen. Everyone enjoyed watching and clapped. What a relief. Were so nervous and afraid that we've done badly.
Soon, music were played and another flashback of the drama in 2007 were shown on the white screen. The drama this year was a continuation of the drama back in 2007. It involved ten scenes. They were divided among the celebration, as in first two scenes and another event came up to pause the drama part when it's at the climax. Singers and bands of students were braved enough to perform well on the stage, accompanied by instruments. There's three parts of games but ended up playing two only as time was limited. The time was almost an hour behind the scheduled time. The first game was "Guess the teachers". Pictures of teachers when they were a kid were used on the slideshow. Prizes were given to students who guessed correctly. They were so funny! =D The next game was "Can you outsmart an eighth grader?", an idea took from a quiz game show "Are you smarter than a fifth grader?" Mrs Nor Chua were picked to participate in this game. She pulled up Cikgu Mimi and Cikgu Izam to join as well. She won the game at the end and obtained a present.
After the events, teachers were to assemble on the stage for the cutting of the cake together with the principal. Then, they moved out the Audi to the teacher's cafeteria to enjoy their meal. All students were to stayback after they left. There's this last performance by a band. Actually only two people were told to sing and to play the guitar. Then, they added another two guys to the band last minute, a drummer and a bass guitarist. Only a song was allowed to play by them actually but when they got so high, with strumming the electric guitar and beating the drums so hard, they added in another song without notifying us earlier. Besides that, they even asked everyone to stand up and dance along. Lights were put out with a very high and noisy atmosphere, as if we're all in a night club. They were then scolded by Cikgu Haiseh, our discipline teacher. Luckily by that time, we all already left the Audi and went to enjoy our meal. xD Prefects were to join the teachers in the teachers' cafeteria. There were murtabak corner, Hot plate corner and some food and cake in the middle. The hot plate was awesome! Ate together with Syl, Hean, Yap and Melv.
After that, we were asked to stayback in the afternoon for the celebration of the afternoon class together with their teachers. No choice but to stayback and work. In the afternoon, the year 7 and 8 students entered the Audi. We set up everything as in the morning but cut off the games and drama part as time was also limited. Singing performances and AV were still presented. All I can say was that the atmosphere between the morning classes and the afternoon classes were way too much different. In the morning session, it seemed to be a bored and nervous situation but then in the afternoon session, I just felt relaxed and was able to enjoy throughout the show. The atmosphere in the afternoon session was sooo high and way more fun than the morning session.
During one scene where a girl named Ruby, a Chinese sang a Hari Raya song, Melv kept telling me he was waiting for this part. He kept on saying that he liked to listen to her song. He went taking pictures of her using Hadi's camera. Then Teacher Adinah felt that they were suited. Hean came up with an idea as he saw some roses (actually for the teachers). He told Sir Kifiri about asking Melv to give the rose to Ruby on the stage. Sir Kifiri, Teacher Rafidah and Teacher Adinah then forced Melv to give that rose to Ruby. With a scary look on Teacher Rafidah's face, Melv took the rose and ran towards the stage. He passed the rose to Ruby while she was singing. The audiences were yelling and clapping their hands. Ruby, still seemed calm, wasn't interrupted and she continued to performed her singing. When Melv came back, everyone teased him.
Teacher Rafidah even asked for Ruby's phone number and give it to Melv. They started messaging I guessed? Then at the end of the performances where all students were to return to their class and enjoy their meal, Hean, Yap and I followed Teacher Rafidah and Teacher Adinah as they were trying to bring Melv to Ruby's class. Melv, as an EXCUSE (*wink) said that he was going to go to his cuz's class and Teacher Rafidah said she will bring Melv there. So we all followed them from classes to classes and ended up bringing Melv to her class. Muahaha =D! It was soooo funny.. We kept teasing him. They even exchanged email address upon help from Teacher Adinah and Teacher Rafidah. Yap went home before that, leaving me and Hean to enjoy the show. xD! After that we followed Teacher Rafidah to every class to visit her students and have a sit in each of the classes. Chit-chatting inside and still continued to tease Melv. Teacher Rafidah advised Melv to take the baby step until Ruby finished her SPN 21 this year. Hahaha~
I went home at around 4.30pm and rushed for tuition at 7pm that night. A very tiring day but FUN! Worth it as I enjoyed an AWESOME SHOW! RIGHT MELV? HAHAHAHA =PP
