Cultural Aficionado

Now this is yet another event coming up to Merdeka. It is actually Nadeem’s final project where they are trying to spread culture awareness and exchange our culture together with the Cambodian culture. This is affiliated with the Visit Malaysia 2007 and this is working together with the Minister of Culture. This event was held on the 25 and 26 of August at Taylors Main Campus at the Multipurpose Hall. Nadeem and his dance group including me and Sneha were going to perform four songs two for 25th and two for 26th.

On the 25th was not the main launch of the event it was on the 26th but it was open to all too and the crowd was not too bad. We performed Asmara Dana the theme song from Puteri Gunung Ledang and Gemini Gemini. I did not really enjoy myself there for I was dead tired because after a whole day of college and having meetings for my event then I had to rush of for this dance.
But it was totally different for the 26th for there were more people and the people were all very supportive! They were yelling and cheering. We performed Nache Balaye and a fushion song which comprises of 6 songs which lasted for 12 minutes plus. It was darn tiring but worth it because the crowd were yelling encore encore!!! I was smiling till my ears and everywhere we went we had people coming up to us saying it was a great dance, good dancer! I was so proud! Besides our dance ( how selfish of me) both nights there were all types of performances, from hip hop break dancers, to singers, to instrumentals, to Malay dancers, to Chinese peacock dancers and little children dancing Indian dance at the age of only 5. They were so adorable. Oh btw something different from the norm is Radlyn’s cabaret group. There were singing and hot girls in short skirts and leggings with long sticks! Really hot! They sang “hey big spender”, and “Tainted Love” . The singers were Radlyn, Dice and Sara and the others were the dancers and I have to give then a big hand for doing something different and doing it so well!! Bravo!!!!
That event ended as a success too though all the stress and fights it was well paid off. As usual we went to Asia Café to eat then went back and hit the sack. What a night!
