Tanglung Celebration (pesta tanglung)

Wao,, fianlly i finsih my PBL presentation already,now only i got time to sit down and start doing my revision for final exam. i hope it wont be too late for me to start now.(but actually is quite late to start now and will make me rushing for it). ok, now i wanna skip this topic, let me reflect about something that make me happy and enjoy in my last post here for this semester.

at here, i wan to share about my experience in the pesta tanglung that held before. Tanglug celebration at Kolej Ibu Zain(KIZ) was held on 3rd of Oktober, which is last two weeks ago. from this celebration, i had learned many things. i learned how to tolerance with each other in completing one performance. in tanglung celebration of KIZ, i was participated in the sketch performance. at initial, i was forced to take part in sketch, from the begining dislike the group until the end love our sketch group so much. at the begining, we din familiar with each other well although we are from same college. i also felt unhappy with the pratice time that arranged by the group leader and senior. they set the time at night after 10pm and almost praticed 3 times in a week. the worst was we everytime need to pratice until 2 or 3am only can go back rest, sometime even at 4am. although everytime i felt tired with it, but later i wont felt it anymore. because i realise that can work and pratice in one group oso nice. although sometime we will scolding each other and also blame each other, but from their scolding and blame, only i realise my fault and stubborn because don wan listen to other opinion.

i always claimed that it such a wasting time for me coz i can use those preciouse time to study and do revision. but, after reproach by one senior, only i know that i was so selfish with those thinking. coz at there doesnt me alone who was no time to study or homework, they all also faced the problem tat i will faced, but they din grumble for it, just me this small character always grumble about it. especially to our group leader, he was so busy that everyday besides pratice sketch, he also need to go meeting for the pesta tanglung and also incharge to contact all of us to come pratice in time, but he din complain a word about it also. sometime, he even apologise to me coz make me cant study because everyday wan us come out for pratice. after hearing it, i felt such a shame in front him. he was so mighty that can sacrifice his time to do this type of stuff. after that incident, i never grumble for a word, because i know that still got many people outside there sacrifice many of their time juz to give the well performance on the tanglung celebration. and as a member of KIZ, what i can do is to give my full support to them. from that day onwards, i give all my time and inclination in the sketch pratice, and try to give out creative ideas for them to make the sketch more perfect. i know that teamworks is important to make an activity become success and also give my co-operation to them so that the activity can run smoothly.although they wan me to be a clown in front the stage i also accept it, because all of us juz have one same aim now, which is success the celebration on that day. we just hope that audience can enjoy our performance and thus make sure our tanglung celebration this year can be hold successfully.

after 2 months of pratice, we finally prove that our sacrifice is worth, coz our tanglung celebration was success to attract many people come for visit compare to other kolej which hire people outside to entertain the circumstance. this show that we have more strength if compare to them. i was so happy on that day, although my performance was just a while only on the stage, but when u hear people down there clap for you, you will be gratified for u have done before. just like wat they say, prepare so much behind it juz for the few second in front of stage. with the successful celebration on that day, this means that our great efforts on those day was not wasted. it is worth for me.

from the tanglung celebration, i had learned many things that cant be learn from books. i had learned how to look at the circumstance or situation from both side, which not too aggressive or passive. we also need to watch from others, not just with your own starting point. we must care for other feel also. besides that, teamworks,, is the key to success an event, without teamwork, we cant do anything because like all of us know, nobody can live alone in an island. we need other help and support to be success. so,,please,, always care for others.
