I Won't Give Up on Myself - Live Performance

Image
Today there was a spoken word competition & I decided to participate by performing a rap. Thank God, for this competition, I actually have time to properly prepare & practiced. So I thought I would not be that nervous on that day as I am quite decently prepared. I mean, got the music on, memorized the lyrics, right? Well, not until I actually hold the microphone, suddenly my whole body is literally shaking. Really out of the blue! It also made my voice sounds more nervous than ever. But I got lucky as I sensed that & immediately I made my voice intentionally like want-to-cry voice. So... to those who were watching who really thought I was gonna cry, or at least just think I'm purposely appearing to be sad... sorry! I was nervous, that's it lol πŸ˜‚ Luckily the vibration mode only lasted for 30 seconds or so. I was able to recollect myself back, and focus on the performance. Practice really helps in performances. I can safely say that this is better than m...

“Melayu malas nak bekerja/berniaga, sebab tu Cina kaya.”

Image
Dalam penulisan yang lepas, aku cuba membanteras stereotaip “Melayu pemalas” dengan menunjukkan bahawa pentingnya juga kita mencari atau mencipta hiburan dalam pekerjaan kita, dan hal ini tidak semestinya menunjukkan bahawa seseorang itu pemalas. Namun, sekali lagi, aku sangat tertarik untuk menulis lagi berkenaan kata-kata tipikal di Malaysia ini, “Melayu malas nak bekerja/berniaga, sebab tu Cina kaya.” Kenyataan ini nampak terlalu mudah untuk dipercayai. Tetapi, kalau kita cuba mencari, sememangnya perusahaan mereka yang berbangsa Cina itu lebih mendominasi ekonomi Malaysia. Dan mereka yang berbangsa Melayu pula seperti mendominasi lorong-lorong kecil sahaja. Jadi, betul ke Melayu pemalas & Cina kaya? Ini ialah apa yang aku percaya; disebabkan oleh faktor budaya, bangsa Melayu & bangsa Cina terlibat dalam jenis perniagaan yang berbeza. Aku dah terang juga dalam penulisan yang lepas. Tapi tak apa, aku akan tulis lagi. Bangsa Melayu lebih banyak terlibat de...

Orang Melayu Pandai Berseronok dalam Bekerja

“Melayu pemalas!” Satu ungkapan yang asasnya entah dari mana, namun tidak asing lagi bagi kita rakyat Malaysia. Ada penulisan yang sebelum ini, aku andaikan bahawa stereotaip ini datang daripada terwujudnya hak-hak istimewa orang Melayu hasil daripada perlembagaan yang dibentuk selepas zaman merdeka. Tapi entahlah. Itu hanya andaian aku sahaja. Namun, baru-baru ini, aku terfikir lagi satu hal yang mungkin menyumbang kepada pengukuhan stereotaip ini. Awas! Aku tak kata itu sebabnya, aku cuma nak khabarkan yang hal semasa yang berlaku ini mungkin menyumbang kepada lebih percayanya orang kepada stereotaip ini, yang mungkin tiada kebenarannya pun. Apakah hal itu? Orang Melayu nampak sambil lewa buat kerja. “Buat kerja sambil lewa tu, pemalas la kan?” Tak. Baca balik ayat tu betul-betul. Orang Melayu nampak sambil lewa buat kerja. Kenapa nampak seakan-akan sambil lewa? Kerana mereka sentiasa ada ruang untuk berhibur dalam pekerjaan mereka. Cuba tengok contoh-c...
