Emcee Experience
 Emcee - Master of CeremoniesYups, that is the exact definition of the word emcee. Woah! I can just imagine the pressure when everyone looks up at the master. Oh My God. I'll be experiencing that on 2nd August as I'm one of the emcee for the National Day Dinner @ Anchorvale Community Club! Worst still, I'm expected to speak in mostly, Malay. Argh! Not that I have any form of hatred against the language but I just find it odd. After all, till now, no one can confirm if I have to speak "Bahasa Baku" or not. Gah! I really cannot believe that the event is taking place in less than TEN days time!!! Freaking out much now! Haha!The preparation alone is stressful - from script writing to rehearsals. Under the guidance of Ms N, we are so expected to speak with a more lively and vibrant tone. There must be the 'ups and downs' and so on. Being a "virgin" in the emceeing world, I must say that it is so tough to nail everything at one go! I tried my best and so far, it has been really fine. Obviously, I need to keep on brushing up my skill. Haiz. I don't know if it's true but I feel, if I can keep up a certain level of confidence, there wouldn't be any form of glitches. Still, I'm only human and maintaining that level is damn difficult, ok!Everytime when I'm faced with difficult situations, my only fear is breaking down. Without anyone knowing, I've actually broken down numerous times in my life. I may not potray a worried/sad look but god just knows what I'm feeling. For now though, I repeatedly told myself that I shouldn't and musn't let anyone down - not even my own self! Sounds like I'm adding pressure to myself, no? Well I don't care. It'll benefit me eventually. So yeah...Oh yeah, the emcee for this event will appear with "style". Haha. Simply put, we are going to orb out from a video and right smack onto the stage. Then, 1200+ pairs of eyes will be staring at us. Out of the many pairs, a pair will belong to our beloved Prime Minister. Thank you Sir for agreeing to grace the event. ARGH!!!! Haha. Focus Nizam. FOCUS! Each day I pray that I will nail it on that faithful day. I so want to get over and done with the event and my role. Haha! May the whole experience be a success and not a failure in any ways. Jia you to Nurul Ain & Sim Wei Long too! Together, we'll leave a good impact on that day, alright? That said, it not just meant for the ITE, but also our own selves. Haha! Till then! :DP/S: I hate attending meetings! Sadly, I've got no choice! Tonight and tomorrow night's meeting will be with the AVCC committee members. Tomorrow morning's meeting is with the ITE College Central's Principal. PRESSURE!!! :( Wish me luck, ya'all! ;)Regards,Niz
