Baiduri's Malam Silaturahim

Saturday, 11 October 2008. I Paticipate performing for the Baduri's Malam Silaturahhim. By 4 O'clock in the afternoon, we were instructed to report oursleves and gathered at the Empitheater, Jerudong. There we were groomed from hair, make-up, dressed and stuffs.

<= that's me, getting my hair fixed

that guy was the one who did

my make up that night =>

By 8 in the evening, we are ready to perform. I was selected for the opening, closing performance and one traditional dance which was called 'Dayung Sampan'. The theme for that night was Kampong Ayer, that was why we were dressed in Baju Opah and been given Seraung each one for the traditional dance dancers.

Firstly is the opening performance, then a speech done by the General Manager of Baiduri Bank, followed by Dayung Sampan dance. Then comes Saiful Apek suprising the audience with his presence. God! He's so Funny! He's so down to earth type of guy, low profile and definately humble. I laughed myself to tears.

Lastly, what people have been waiting for. Agnes Monica's performance. not really a fans though, yet i enjoyed the performance. In this picture is her stretching before she went to the stage. I didnt get to snap a photo with her that night, too bad.. But at least i get to take pictures with her dancers, Saiful Apek and few more.

This is Jenny Malai Ali with us

Those two guys black is Agnes Monica's dancers

This is a picture of Saiful Apek and me

That cute guy next to me is the drummer of the band that playes the musics for all the dances we performed that night. I actually wanted to snap a photo with Agnes Monica's drummer as well. He's like SUPER HOT! Too bad didnt get the chance. MAN! Don't you just find drummers DAMN HOT???

Here are some more pictures taken that night. enjoy...

it was about 8:30 in the morning when i reach home after reciting the Aidil Fitri Prayer. i put on some make ups, wear my tudong and im ready to go. the weather was just nice, i can see its such a sunny day. no signs of rain coming any time soon. my uncle's house is just naext door, just about 3o steps away. as i walk in, GOD! i can't believe this moment is here again. im enjoying every bit of it.

<= that's me! this is how i look on that particular event. i was wearing black jubah or some call it arabic gown. what u cant see in this picture is i was wearing black jubah or some call it arabic gown. then dark brown tudong, brownish pink lipstick, shimmering red rose blusher and lastly my shimmer powder, love them.

the catering was done by We Can Cafe sponsered by Abang Aman, a thousand thanks to him. there were perhaps more than 10 dishes served. ok, let me try name what i can remember. there's two types of rice which is nasi putih and nasi kuning, lamb satey, ayam masak merah, mango fish fillet, acar, soto with it's condiments and lots of desserts.

humph! if only i could show you some more picture of the foods.
