the malay workshop was,i dont know how to describe it.shite?cool?actually a little bit of both.we learnt tarian,dikir barat,drama and bahas.in that order.tarian was ok.we were taught the zapin which originated form the arabs.(not bad!i actually paid attention.)and the guy was telling us about the adats and how we're supposed to behave,as in shy and polite,for ladies of course.and he gave an example.like if we were walking down the street and a guy teases us,would we fight back or just smile?well i obviously wouldnt just shut up and smile and give the damn guy the satisfaction that he's king of the world.so i told the guy teacher that i would definitely fight back.and so he started explaining that we should be lady-like and just smile.and then he asked again which would we do.i said i'd fight back.then he smiled.and after the dance and more talking about how we should behave he asked again what we would do and he directed the question at me.and i still said i'd fight back.i guess he gave up seeing that i wasnt going to change my mind.i mean,come on!would i just really smile and walk away?just because im a girl and i should behave properly.how sexist.oh please!never.i'd definitely fight back.and after that we had a break then we had dikir barat.that was crappy.we all thought it was going to be fun.but the instructor was really lame.he kept making all these jokes which he thought was funny but obviously wasnt.what a jack.then we had lunch and then we had drama.drama was so COOL!our instructor was this tv producer/writer guy from mediacorp who has interviewed black eyed peas,simpleplan,greenday,destiny's child,britney spears and mariah carey.which was definitely awesome.so then he shared some of his experiences with us and taught us a few stuffs.then there was this one game where we each had to stand up and say our name so he could hear our voices and tell us whether our diction and clarity etc was good.so then when i stood up and wanted to say my name,he went like "eh,dont slouch.stand up straight" i was actually adjusting my sleeve.then he held my shoulders and pushed them back and sort of massaged them.i was like"what the hell".then he said "hey,people say if you have it,flaunt it."and he told me to flaunt my assets and he started talking about how if he was me he'd flaunt HIS assets(as if he had any anyway)and he said something about vanity fair.that was totally crappy.then we played another game about emotions and he was telling sharifah to do something and she didnt do it right and he was like"eh apa merepek setan?"we were like bloody hell shocked.boy was he very direct about what he wanted to say.and after that we had break and then bahas which was totally boring.kept trying not to sleep.stupid bahas.finally the whole thing was over.then at white sands,me,amirah and sharifah were walking to the bus interchange and there was this bloody mat walking in the opposite direction,towards us.so then he told sharifah"eh ada benda jatuh"and sharifah,being the fool that she was,believed him and started walking back.then i looked at the mat and i looked behind and saw nothing so then i pulled sharifah away,realizing that the stupid mat was making fun of her.then i heard him say to his friends "eh bodoh sia".what a jackass.sharifah was so embarrassed.haha.gullible woman.
