Updates!

Hi all, I haven't had time to update this blog, as this blog is usually updated when I have written new poem, or things that I want to say of my participation in creative writing.

Good news, I passed my Young People Art Award: Bronze. And I wish to continue to do Collective Voices to silver award

Well, check out my main blog, where I pour out my opinion most,/p>

Young People Art Award for Bronze

Alhamdulillah (All the praise to Allah) I amnaged to go through thick and thin of Collective Voices of Barbican Theatre. This year, 2007, I hope I can work hard and gain experience as much as I can as I am going to leave UK by the end of this year. Insha Allah.

2nd November 2006:

We did grafitti on a long banner. Had so much fun playing with colours and spontaneous joke by Mohammad and Samad. Dienka told us that she's going to display it during Desmond Tutu Center lauch caremony.

7th November 2006:
I missed the creative writing session today. Too tired. I am supposed to learn fiction work.

8 November 2006:

Desmond Tutu launch. Helped Dienka with posters of Collective Voices and Barbican Theatre. I wrote a long entry for the day event on my prime blog.

Plymouth Respect Festival finally over and I was bloody tired. Taking care of the booth from the morning, waiting for the henna, attending people and workshop, from 8 am to 4.30 pm, was quite tiring.

Anyhow, I had fun, and I wish that Plymouth Respect Festival will arrange the events, not scattered in 2 days. I like Exeter's Respect Fest, they got series of events and it takes the whole week. So people (like me) who would love to go to many events will have oppotrunity to do so. Not cramping everything in a day. There are so many things I missed yesterday, for example, I didn't managed to go to each and every stall in the guildhall, the extreme sports perfomance, the cultural concert, the booths in the sundial, etc. I wish the henna booth can handle more people and the queue will be much shorter. I wish.

I joined for awhile the Football for Poetry Workshop. Football via poem is a cool way to detach racism from football. Football can unite people. Football is not a place for violance. It's for people who have sportmanship and love football passionately. Poetry too. It conveys what football can't say. I wish I can get the Kick Racism Out of Football T-Shirt. I wish again.

4.30 pm, I helped my friends to pack the stuffs of Malaysian booth. Time to go home. Been there for a day and I did many things. Whew~

Music Zone Second Session

Second time went to Music Zone. I rearrange the music once again. Using a keyboard and GarageBand software, I recorded "Doe a dear" (from sound of music) song.

My best experience was playing drum and bass. That was the first time I really played drum and I think I'm going to like drum ever.

Finally, my CD was burned. You can download them from here.

Cretive Writing Workshop

Venue: Barbican Theatre
Time: 6-8pm
Who came: Aini, Marrick, Daisy, Lau, Dienka, Ben, Ruth and Mrs Balindjer.

Yesterday I finally attended a creative writing workshop conducted by Mrs Bhaldinjer from Bristol and she complimented my name as I pointed my eyes and knees and she said "wow, your name is a poetry too". So I replied with a smile and little laughter. I never knew that. Cool huh?

Next, she asked us to composed a couplets of 14 lines. I do it from the view of a detective. Not sure whether it's Mr Holmes of Grissom from CSI. She said it was good. She even asked Dienka whether I am the one whom she said composed a good poem. Dienka asked me to read the poem which I sent for the Respect Festival. Mrs Balindjer said "superb" and all I can say is "thank you" since I do not know much how to handle a praise. Phew.

I can't wait to get into the studio this Thursday. Got lotsa idea. Gambaremasu!~
