Once we received the task on that day, i admit that every each of us were lack of ideas on "how should we act in front of people", "how would it turns out later" & "how are we supposed to act like its nothing" since none of us werent that sporting. Days and nights my group members and i been thinking about the topic, storyline, characters and so on. After a few days we received the task, Miss Dini asked everyone to hand in our first draft regarding the role play. We actually simply create the quite nonsense and boring storyline. We did it last minute though. After that, once we entered Miss Dini's room we were so nervous waiting for her response. She giggled while reading it..? Everyone was wondering why.. Then we asked her about our ideas on the draft. "It wasnt that bad but its too cliche" she replied. And she also asked us to add on any interesting scene since it was so dull.
As days past by, we actually still did not manage to satisfy ourselves with the storyline. It feels like something went wrong somewhere but we are unsure of it. After classes we made our time and went to the library for some ideas with a few classmate. With their help and our contribution for the second draft, we were hoping that we made it right. At least the storyline was wayyyy better than the first one. So, here comes the day that we should hand in our second draft to her room. Apparently, it was better but we still did not fulfill her requirements for the role play.
We only have the last meeting before the day of the role play which is our final draft to send to Miss Dini. We almost surrendered and didnt know what to do since our storyline still couldnt win her heart. We barely sleep just for the sake of this role play so we were hoping that the final draft might get her approval. She said it was okay but we were ask to make it a little bit funny so that we can attract the audience and the judges as well. Once we stepped out of her room, 4 of us were so relieved.
It was on friday if im not mistaken when miss dini sent a message to zati saying that if there were any group that combines, let her know. A few minutes after, zati came to our room asking whether we are going to combine groups or not. So we decided to combine since there were only four of us in the group. We thought it would be more interesting since it will be more characters in a story. Then, we work our ass off to finish the new script (combined group). We listed down all the props that we might need, rearrange the storyline and literally create a whole new script. Time flies so fast whilst all of us did our own work, it was 4 o'clock in the morning and we could not manage the sleepiness. By that time, everything was stable and we just need the next morning to get everything done including the props and the choreography (since we decided to add songs related to each scene). Yes, it was Saturday morning and we woke up early than other Saturday mornings just to get everything seem perfect. We gathered at the Prep Room and had a little discussion there. But then what actually gave us a shock was when, that morning Miss Dini replied to our message we sent the day before saying that she didnt gave the permission for us to combine groups. We were like " are you kidding me? We slept at 4 for this, and this is it?" Everyone was so disappointed and pissed off. We convinced her that the combination group would turn out beyond her expectation but then she objects it. A few hours left to the day of rehearsal on Sunday afternoon. We were so blank & out of words. We had no choice that we have to stick with our old storyline. That afternoon we went to a stationary shop to buy those props and went back to the hostel. On that night, we did a quick rehearsal since everyone were so tired and continue the next morning.
Clock strikes 8 and everyone was ready to rehearse. We went down to the lobby and rehearse before heading to the hall. Once we finished, we brought all the props and heading straight to the hall. Again, all of us practice and act well. After other sections done with their rehearsal then its time for us to get comfortable with the stage. We were so nervous that our hearts were beating so fast. We did well on stage, i suppose.
We finished our rehearsal during Maghrib and we went straight to the hostel and had our dinner.
So yea, it was a lovely day on that Monday morning. Everyone was up and already in their own costumes. We had all the props ready and i drove straight to kptm. Then, once i stepped in the hall, i couldnt be able to feel my feet as i got so nervous thinking about how would im going to act later. After other sections finished with their own role play, it was our turn to perform. Aalamgeer was the 4th team to act. Everyone was on stage getting ready with their scene. When our group were about to perform, all of us started to stay calm. Its unbearable whenever i was on the stage, playing the character as Saben's girlfriend thats so ewwww. I felt like laughing out loud since he was so funny on the stage. Same goes to Fiza and Tareeq who did their scene on fleek that everyone literally laughing their ass off watching it. Next, when all the groups has finished with their performance. Someone came out with an idea that we were going to dedicate a song to our beloved Miss Dini to extend our gratitude. So we randomly sang the song, everyone gathered and join us. It was so memorable. I think i saw Miss Dini burst out but then when we asked, she replied " mata saya masuk habis". Then we signed the attendance and went for the next class. We were so happy we could ended it very well. Till we meet again!!!! xoxo
