Conversations with Conscience.

they're pretty, talented and funny.
i think i'm losing out.

in case anybody else doesn't know yet, in that academy,there are international students from Thailand,Indonesia,Australia,Singapore and of course Malaysia...then everyone mix like rojak with different accents.i remember that i always converse in malay with this thailand soloist and she would reply in thai.for some reason, we always understood each other.weird la she, she's never dared to speak malay cuz she's worried we would laugh at her accent and whatnot.ape je.hahas...

then there is Vocal Faculty consisting of penasyid who sing the solo,harmony and bass parts,Percussion Faculty consisting of girls playing drum instruments like drabuka,goreng,bass tiga,bass,and yes,drumset, and many2 more),Performing Arts Faculty(doing playwrights & scripts for their Islamic Theatre,pantomimes and this thing called Tarian Sufi where they dress in all-white and kinda mime out lyrics of the nasyid through actions and hand movements for the audiences' better penghayatan) and Production Faculty where the girls learn every nitty gritty detail about how to handle the A.V & all the other media equipment...Girls from all faculties gather after Subuh for classes like fardhu ain and kuliah-kuliah rohani and after that disperse for their own lessons...like you know,Vocal Faculty go for their vocal training and music theory lessons,Performing Arts rehearse for their sketches and things like that..Then they have big productions and mega concerts as part of their assignments and that's when everyone come together to perform..

Sometimes they have assignments requiring them to produce , say,educational Islamic vcds for little kids and also their nasyid albums and then as part of entrepeneurship lessons everyone must find a way to market these products that they produced...

and they have this thing called O.S.S.D..As part of entrepeneurship studies,they do marketing right,so besides supplying their products to shops ,they do door-to-door marketing.So in that way they improve on their public-relations skills as well as to boost their confidence in more ways than one.
And this door-to-door marketing is what we call OSSD-Operation Social Science Da'wah. so this is the time that they learn to socialise with the public and sell their products in an attempt to bring themselves and the ppl that they meet closer to The Eternal Love.so it becomes a win-win situation instead of us just earning their money and them losing their money,know what i mean? i followed them in this OSSD before, it can be painful for being rejected, but after that when we all reflect, the experience and lessons about life and people that all of us girls gain makes it all really worth it.really. i can acutually cry out of being overwhelmed thinking about particular experiences i had when i followed them once.but more of that one day.

and,

for the seniors, after years of being in the academy, they are dispatched by the principal to go back to their own country for several months to do roadshows and motivational camps and so on. for example, the indonesian seniors must go back to indonesia, the australians to australia to look for places to hold concerts and performances and reach out to the teenagers, especially, in their own country thru camps and whatnot. and for those who pass a certain test in terms of skills and kerohanian, they get a chance to study in jordan and while they do roadshows there...

anyways,for now, my dad is STILL sceptical about me schooling in the academy ,in a foreign country and all, and luckily the folks in the academy are being cool about it. imagine,i'm STILL a trial student deyy! however since it's a talent academy cum private school, i don't have to race against time to follow any particular semester so i'm not exactly being pressured to confirm my decision to join the academy too quickly. which is why i like their concept.so they still include me in their activities. in other words, i crash in to their lessons and activities kind of for as long as i like, as long as i don't burden them la.made really good friends. they said i can be of quite good use to the academy and they hope that i can stay. huhu...but most important thing is, for now, no rush.i need time for myself, and for my dad to make this decision. frustrating,most of the time, but things always happen for a reason,cuz God knows best.this is the time for me to just serah bulat-bulat to Him cuz i seriously don't know what He has in store for me. i guess now i have to be extremely patient and pray extremely hard.

and whatever the outcome of this whole thing, i just,really really hope i will redha.

so tt's abt it then.bye.
