Welcome to our big family, Batch 14!

I hope it's not too late for this post.

Year by year, Andeka is getting new family members, and this year, it's Batch 14! Okay selalunya pengambilan intake baru akan dibuat lepas Citra Open Day, tapi kali ni, Shura (gabungan presiden semua kelab di bawah naungan Citra) sepakat untuk buat audition semua kelab sebelum konsert COD.

Two years back, I was put to be in charged of the registration section alongside with Kak Siti. Last year, they put me as one of the first stage interviewer, partnering with Abang Hadi. I watched him and learned how he handled the interview as it was my first time interviewing the new batch. This year, I was assigned to be one of the bonang interviewers, together with Nisa, Qila and Aina.  Hmm tiap-tiap tahun dapat tugas lain-lain.

Operasi bawak barang ke riverside.

Set up tempat.

Jomblo Happy part 2

Tengahari sebelum interview, kami ada buat flashmob, bertujuan untuk tarik crowd especially juniors untuk mai audition malam tu. We played Jomblo Happy at the riverside. For a full version of our flashmob performance, boleh Tekan kat sini

Simulation

Petang sebelum interview tu start, we were supposed to have a simulation so that takdaklah terkial-kial sangat masa interview sebenar nanti. Tapi aku tak dapat join simulation ni sebab aku ada meeting COD, and it lasted until maghrib. Habis meeting terus rushing pi solat, tak sempat makan, pastu terus pi kat tempat aku bertugas.

Some of those who came for the interview

Keseluruhan proses audition ni aku tak ingatlah ambik masa berapa lama. Tapi rasanya dalam pukul 10 lebih camtu dah habis kot. Lepas settle interview, kami semua berkumpul kat seminar room untuk discuss siapa yang layak. Masa ni aku dah tak kisah orang lain, yang penting aku nak makan nasi lemak yang tak termakan dari maghrib lagi tu.

Muka mengamuk orang kacau makan.

K taklah, tipu ja.

The final result pun aku tak ingat/taktau berapa yang terpilih. Soooo busy dengan makanan aku sebab lapar sangat lol.

Malam pre-induction dengan batch baru. Tahniah!

A few days after the pre-induction, barulah ada induction day. Aku macam biasalah, excited nak join as participant haha. Tema induction kali ni ialah Avengers? Marvel? Superhero? Eh entahlah tak ingat lol tapi lebih kurang macam tu lah tema dia. Ada kaitan dengan superhero komik tu.

Ni team aku untuk induction day. Team aku ni Team Hulk. Ha akulah maskot rasmi team ni. Tu dah pakai hijau dari atas sampai bawah. Team members aku;

Fatin

Finda

Aiman

Mira (kot?)

Adik Kak Paei (angklung) tak ingat nama sorry

Masa ni kena pikiaq cheers untuk team. Hmm.

Ni pulak kami kena lukis gambar gajah. Tapi takleh guna tangan. Maksudnya, tangan kita takleh sentuh marker tu. Kena tarik tali yang ikat marker tu. Seksa jugaklah haha.

Lepas dah lukis, kami kena bentang 'Gajah' kami. Kena explain laa sikit kat mana telinga dia, pasaipa lukis dia lagutu etc. Tu haa aku tengah semangat defend gajah team kami yang kena kritik dengan team lain.

Ni pulak game lempar kasut tengok siapa paling jauh. Aku rasa aku dapat sama ada second atau third place kot. Haha tak ingat tapi yang pasti macam jauh jugaklah kasut aku tu pi. Oh well, bekas atlit yang kini pencen kot. Haruslah power bab-bab laguni haha.

Okay, so nah tengoklah gambar-gambar induction yang lain. Of course aku pilih mana yang nampak muka aku ja nak letak kat dalam blog ni ehehe. Kalau ada muka orang lain kira nasib baiklah tu.

Induction Day Batch 14 Khalas!

Kalau sebelum ni, Induction Night selalunya buat kat HS Square ataupun Edu Square. Kali ni, Induction Night ni buat kat Istana Andeka sendiri, our own home. Tema malam tu pun sama macam yang siang punya; Superhero based yang aku tak ingat exact theme tu apa.

Aku mana layan sangat kisah-kisah superhero komik ni so aku macam left out sikit lah bab nak pakai ikut theme ni. Since masa tu tengah hangat dengan drama Goblin, aku dengan Nana pun pakat nak pakai baju bertemakan Grim Reaper ahaha. Senang kerja, cari outfit yang all black ja sebab Grim Reaper pakai all black.

Your Grim Reapers

Gigih siap buat video acah-acah Grim Reaper dengan Goblin masa depa jalan nak selamatkan Eun Tak. (Kdrama lovers or those who watched Goblin will recognize this scene).

Aktiviti Induction Night ni macam biasalah;

Makan

Persembahan batch baru

Persembahan senior

Penyampaian hadiah

Aku dengan Nana macam biasalah, excited bab makan ni. Dahlah kami dua orang siap pi tambah nasi lagi sebab nasi tu sedap sangat pastu kami pulak memang tengah lapar haha. Dahlah kami paling lambat habis makan pulak tu. Orang lain dah sudah makan, kami dok mengunyah lagi.

Dah habis makan tu, ada laa sesi penyampaian hadiah. Team aku dapat tempat last sekali haha tapi aku tak kisah. Sebab tempat terakhir pun still dapat hadiah. Hadiah makanan pulak tu. Lagi lah aku suka hehehe.

Berakhirlah sudah Induction Night.

To Batch 14, congratulations for making the cut. You are Andeka's new hope. Whenever you feel like quitting, remember that you were among the chosen ones. Whenever you feel like giving up, remember why you bother to came all the way to our audition. Ramai lagi yang nak masuk tapi bukan rezeki depa lagi. You were the ones who met our expectations, hence, you deserve a place here. Andeka was meant for you. Grab every single opportunities here and grow your talents; be it in music or management. We seniors will be leaving Andeka to you guys. Take a good care of it :')

Sincerely yours,

Recital 9.0 : Yang Terakhir Kali

Dah lama tak update. Memandangkan aku sekarang ni dah takdak apa-apa komitmen dengan pelajaran, so boleh kot slow-slow start balik blogging ni. Banyak betul cerita yang tertangguh. One of the stories yang aku memang dah lama nak cerita ialah pasal Recital 9.0 ni.

(( I did wrote about Recital 8.0 HERE ))

Poster rasmi event

Kalau Recital 8.0 lebih fokus kepada batch baru dalam kelab masing-masing, Recital 9.0 pulak ada slot untuk both junior and senior teams. Iyalah, takkan nak lupakan yang lama kan? Tiada yang lama, maka tiada juga yang baru. Gittewww...

Mainboard setuju pilih Husni sebagai PIC untuk recital kali ni. So bermulalah episod Husni mencari players untuk show ni. Fyi, team junior akan bawa dua buah lagu dan team senior akan bawa satu lagu. Mula-mula, aku macam nak join, tapi takut takleh bagi commitment untuk training sebab clash dengan ISC masa ni. (Entry on ISC 2016 kat SINI)

Entah berapa lama aku ambik masa dok pikiaq pasal ni. Last-last aku setuju untuk join. And I think it was the right decision walaupun memang sakit sikitlah masa tu. I was sooo busy with my after-class-part-time-job meniaga nasi kerabu, ISC, training untuk recital lagi,and not to mention my studies. So many things on my plate at that moment.

But I told myself;

"Weh, entah-entah ni recital terakhir. Lepasni taktau boleh join lagi ka dak"

And I was right. It was the last recital for most of the seniors since most of us will be graduating this semester and there were no recitals this semester. :'(

(By this semester, I was referring to Sem 2, 16/17)

Okay, put the sad part aside.

Lepas cukup satu team, Umar came up dengan lagu baru; Cintaku 100%. Since semua dalam team ni dah senior, kami dapat habiskan belajar lagu baru ni dalam masa satu waktu training ja. Haha. Tapi tu secara kasar ja lah. From the first training, we need to work out on improvisations and showmanship.

Mula-mula aku volunteer nak main tingkah cak-cak, tapi bila tengok percussion macam tempting lah pulak. Last-last aku join bahagian percussion, main toys uuuuu favourite section. Well I guess I'm much more useful and handy when it comes to toys hehe.

Senior team.

Rindu :")

 

After some training sessions, here we were, rehearsing for the last time, the night before the recital. Masa ni Cikgu Ku ada mai tengok kami sikit-sikit lepastu tolong kami improve part mana yang patut improve. Masa ni jugaklah aku ada final game hoki ISC. Gigih lepas habis game terus lari mai CAC untuk practise.

Video rehearsal (part 2)

 And so, the day finally came. I missed ISC's medal ceremony since these two events clashed with each other, but it was worthy. One of the best nights, I can say.

Us, waiting for our turns.

Some pictures of us during our performance.

 

I guess the only decent picture of me that night was this. Spotted myself there at the corner, cheering for my juniors. How times flew. Yesterday, they were still babies in caklempong, learning the basic skills playing tingkah and whatnot, now they can already perform as an assemble. I'm such a proud senior :")

My favourite :')

I'm gonna miss you

We even got featured in some FB pages such as Nogori Most Wanted and Siakap Keli. Rezeki dari Allah :')

For the full video of our performance, you guys can go to Andeka's Youtube channel. Ada video both team junior dengan senior. Emm tapi kalau nak cepat, tekan ja lah sini Team Senior ehehe.

Bila ingat balik, macam sebak sikit sebab tak sangka ni recital terakhir. Rasa macam baru semalam join Andeka, merangkak belajar satu-satu. Lepastu join pulak the first ever recital, masa tu kecik ja event ni. Buat kat training room, himpit semua kelab dalam tu. Sekarang dah jadi senior, dah nak grad dah. Tengok adik-adik pulak perform. Auch. Sedih.

But that's life I guess. Takdak siapa yang kekal. People come and go. At the end, everyone's gonna graduate, and have a life of their own. And new batches will be recruited every year. Yang patah tumbuh, yang hilang berganti. Hmm emosinya.

Sincerely yours,
