ONCE UPON A TIME, I WAS THAT SHOWGIRL - Episode 6

From the last episode... Episode 5: Doing somethin' about "it"... lets!

So sampai bile mek cam tu? Sampai bilekah mek stayed on merajuk (actually MALU) cam tu? Dah serik ke nak buat show? Hey hey hey - Che-Detz won't call me MISS TAK SERIK2 for nothing you know... and all akan ku kupaskan dalam Episode ke 6, OUATIWTS... the year 2001 ended with a victory! It's like what Danny Mendez, Miss Italy/ Universe 1997 said... "It's a victory upon victory". Whatever that means lah kan.. LOL!

Episode 6: What next? I'm BACK!!!

So what happened after a month or two lepas that disaster show of the century itiew!? Mek gave up? Dinch u ols!!! I took the months off to get away dari that maluness I felt malam kat Kelab BB tu. Ewwww... masih termiang2 ditelinga dengar org kezi pasal buat show tube terlucut jatuh menampakkan teteques mek! Haiyoh! Malu - but two months tu, I admit, I missed the attention. That one night, just that one night alone - everything happened. Attention - I dapat. Org puji- dapat. Orang hina- also got. Orang caci- pun got. Orang ketawakan mek- laaagi la ade. But you know what? Bukankah all those mentioned above, part of being, what, famous? Tu yang mek wished for kan!? Haiyoh - pening time2 tu memikirkan masa depan mek as a showgirl yang kian kabur.

Macam... tah lah. Punah jer harapan mek rase time tu. Why? DUH! First show - first public appearance, first time performing - dah jadik bahan kutukan dan tawaan! Segan lah mek! Masuk mIRC pun I became sooo malas and so... urgh! Sebab few days after that traggic weekend tu, ramai chatters were talking about me and my pathetic show tu. In a way yes - popular la sekejap - tapi pon!? Ewwww - jadi bahan tawaan katanye (As Acu yang selalu chatting kat cc, cakap kat mek, dia noticed banyak gossip pasal kes tetek tu dalam chatroom - eewww... segannye! Eh no, not segan, MALU ok!) I was like, what, the laughing stock of BB!? Kwang kwang kwang!

So anyways - lepas sebulan tu, I felt, OK already lah sikit. Macam, dah boleh chatting dalam mIRC dah kot, walaupun masih dihena! Eheheh. Lepas dua bulan pulak - nahhh! That's it! Macam... "Bile nak drag in public lagi nih!!?! Macam best jer... Nak lagik nak lagik!!!"

And that's when I decided that I should again do something about it. So I called Awie and told him I wanted to perform balik - very der mek sembang hati ke hati dengan dia. He was very very pleased to hear the good news yang mek nak perform balik... Sebab waktu tu, Awie and Jimmy's Collection group, ala ala kekurangan tenaga showgirls. So it was like - they don't have a showgirl and I don't have a place/ group to perform with. So basically, mek ngan the group were a perfect match. Great timing la jugak. Awie told me dia memang nak call mek tapi waktu tu dia tgh sebok with some other stuffs - so bile mek yang calling2 dulu, he was like "Owh THANK GOD!"

So mek pun, lepas dah cakap phone dengan dia, semue, planned bile nak perform and discussed sikit pasal payment and what not - letak jer phone tu, terus selongkar CD collection si Along, carik lagu sehsuwai nak buat show ala ala comeback tu... comeback ke? Peliz lah! Feeeling over tau mek nih!!!

So lepas pilih lagu, berlatih la sikit menari ala ala tu pun Along ade gak ajar sikit2 dance move, kalau idak, ado? Nan ado! Menari nih jgn cakap lah - berkali2 lagu tu mek repeat - sampai menari pon berpeluh2, terhoyong hayang. Then, dah habis memenatkan diri berlatih menari, it was time to rejuvinate myself, relaxkan body, mind and soul mek. Yes... time for me to go shopping (sah sah gaji baru keluar mek ingat waktu tu). Kali nih, preparation mek ala ala - macam, beriya2 nih. Serious, I also don't know why. Beli wig baru lah, heels baru la... baju litlaplitlap glittering sequeen mequeeen nih! Ehehehe - accessories pun dah ade yang proper (no more aluminium foil dibalut dawai utk dililitkan ditangan dan dibuat headgear! Eheheheeh)... and what not...yooo lah - Shopping mana lagi kalau bukan Sungai Wang - Situ jer la pon yang mek tahu mana nak beli barang2 drag tu.

And then - malam yang dinanti2kan itiew telah tibe. Ehehehe... it was on a Friday night. Surprisingly, crowd malam tu, boleh la tahan meriahnya. That pushed my spirits up a bit. Tah lah, kali nih macam determined jer nak do my best. And plus, mek macam nak tunjukkan balik, the person yang diaorang laughkan sebab tube terlucut two months ago, is back! Eheheheh - maaati la ko! Ehehehe....

'BABY COME ON OVER' by Samantha Mumba- that fast beat track from her first Album tu lah was my choice for the show malam tu- and this time, YER! Bra yang kupakai, SUDAH TIDAK STRAPLESS LAGIK!!! Lebih membanggakan, sudah belajar dari mistake lepas dan terus beli tali bra TRANSPARENT katanye!!! Dan the tube dress glittering tu, di pinkan kat bra. Confident tak terlucut lagik! Dan nak kasik nampak empuk sikit, EXTRA FACIAL TISSUES DLM BRA ITIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow - kembung vasttt malam tu! Eheheheh. Lihatlah dunia! I HAVE BREASTS!!!! EHEHEHE

Anyways, so... - how was it? How was the show??? Masih orang ketawa, masih orang hina? DINCH! It was a great show! Seriously! No more laughing sounds - just... tepukan jer lepas habis show tu. And I was like... "WOW! Bestnye!!!" I think mek blushing gile2 babs waktu tu! Ehehehe...

And so then I began to feeling feeling sexcitedly seronok nak go on and perform! Dah gile nak buat shows la pulak! No more malu no more fears - tapi, ade la jugak SEGANNYE at times. Bile? Time mek rase kepits dinch melerts dan mek rase susuk mek dah mula menampakkan kehijauan selepas show dan peluh - SERIOUSLY - mek tak tipu lah! Ehehe - and so these shows memanjang jer mek buat whenever I tak fly during any particular weekend. Tapi kalau dah fly, nak buat cam mans - abaikan sahajs ler niat nak gedik2 menari... kan?

So anyways,... kalau ikut show chronologynye - dalam year 2001 - seingat mek lah... nih lah shows2 mek yang hazabs itiew (yang sendirian berhad feeeeling meletop walhal HAZAB!)

  • Dov'e L'Amore was a COMPLETE DISASTER! So much for 1st impression - 1st show and 1st public appearance!!!
  • BABY COME ON OVER was much of a success compared to the first disasterous show! Mek gumbira after that show!
  • And then it was HE WASN'T MAN ENOUGH FOR ME by Toni B - and the show was... so-so lah I guess.
  • IN MY POCKET- Mandy Moore, on the other hand, I had some drama over this time* (Kat bawah mek explain)
  • and finally, yes - I remembered this song was the last song I performed for 2003; Irresistable by Jessica Simps - and the show was pretty much, Occaayyy larrr... ehehe


Now the story behind *In My Pocket by Mandy Moore punye show tu, was somesthings likes this. The first attempt, so-so-ly I wasn't feeling well as sedia ade, tapi tetap nak perform (dah kemaruk attention dan fame la tu. Keji!). And then during the show - something happened (aside from pening dan hidung tersumbat due to flu and believe me, when ur hidung gets blocked, during a show, and somemore when you're in drag, believe me! It's not a good feeling!!!). And during that show jugak lah, I saw something yang memang kezi dan tak leh dimaafkan... something to do with friends thingie lah *mek akan skip kisah nih as mek dinch mau ungkitkan bara kawan mek tu yang now dah ka NYC! Biar lah jadik kenangan* So anyways I got carried away during the show (that's sooo me - easily get carried away, kan? ) And the major turn off, mek leh lupe lyric pulak - tetibe leh terlupe pulak tu!!! Sentap! I nearly jatuh during my killer-spin move (this move mek buat, like, in heels, and erm, cam mana nak explain ek? Tau figure ice skater? How the normally end diaorang punye dance item? That spin tu kan? Percaya atau tidak - but it happened, one too many times sampai kengkawan dah gelar it as a killer-spin; YES - mek buat ok!), rambut dah serabut (thanks to the spin yang ala ala tak menjadi tu ler) - and I then tibe2 mek felt malu, yang teramatz. Tak tahu kenape. So, I lari keluar dari stage, and started crying back there (Yes yes - drama queen in the making time tu and yes yes - so very tak professional. Of course lah, what do u expect from an amature pathetic showgirl berangan?) Audience ade yang ketawa - ade yang macam very Kak Nams terpinga2 - ade jugak yang.. "Ok la tu - whatever je. OK NEXT SHOW PLEASE?" haaa gittu. Kijams kan? Ehehehe...

But u ols nak tahu something???? Surprise surprise. It didn't take me that long to recover la u ols. Macam like waktu the first disaster tu - it took me more than 2 months to buat show balik. So it's nothing like that, at all! This time around, mek rase mek nak redo the show disebabkan tensi mensi dan rase sakit hati atas ape yang kawan dah buat - dasar kawan makan kawan - sentap!!! Terus mek dari sentap ke ultimate sentap dan terus berfeeling2 kuat! Called that budak a.k.a kawan, suruh dia dtg the following week to the club - mek cakap... "I have something to show u and ur loverboy!" and yes, the SHOW was the thing I wanted to show him! Eh, THEM! Ehehehe. And my second attempt was simply... WOW!!!! Mek suke mek suke! I remembered DJ Zul tu cakap... just before me went out from back stage menuju ke stage (it wasn't so much of a stage pun, basically dance floor jer...) - he said... something like this...

"Last week she tak habis buat show ni... atas sebab2 tertentu yang she cannot elakkan. But this week, tonight - she's back, all geared up, and ready to perform again. So boys, girls, let us see what she has to offer for us this time. Performing IN MY POCKET by Mandy Moore, AGAIN - lets have Laurielle!! (which I was pretty sure he pronnounced it as Loreal... sedehhh!)"

And yeap - the show, to me, was - the best, so far, from me. Mek memang all out! I was sooo energetic, so geared up - all becoz, dalam otak mek nih, ade satu jer... "Maati la kau (kawan mek tu lah) - You think I'd go down after last week!? Think again!" Yerrr - dengan tema sentap dan nak tunjuk that I could do it - the show was simply... again... WOW! (dari pindapat chek aje laa iyer... jgn sangka simua olang berpindapat sidimikian ya... ). I felt great after that show and it memang buatkan someone sentap sebab I got tepukan gemuruh lepas show tu... (Oppsss kawan mek yang COULD be reading this - was it your Loverboy yang paling kuat sorakkan mek? Ooopps)

The next show however, which was kinddof like the last show for that time, that year - Irresistable, was so like, ok lah kot... acceptable. But I'm sure, VERY sure that, IN MY POCKET was the best show I've ever put up, yet - waktu tu! Macam ramai org cakap2 pasal hal itiew. Dan no more hinaan, no more ketawa2 behind my back. Mek suke mek suke.

Namun like konsep Fizik - what goes up, must come down. That weekend sensation didn't last long - as lepas tu, it was the darurat time again for me! Sedeh! Darurat ape? FLIGHTS lor! - I was busy busy annnndd busy the next following weekends - nan ado langsung weekend yang off! Semuanye fly fly fly! Keji tau waktu tu. Tensi jugak sebab tak dapat go out malam2 weekends tu. Isk, very der lah sentap! Ehehehe...

Tapi ade satu hari tu, ade satu cerits sensas! (sensasi ler) Waktu tu I just got back from work - and Cik Angah picked me up kat hub sebab he used my car when I was away. So that's not the point. Anyways, on the way back home, he said...

"Anjang... weekend depan nih Anjang tak fly kan?"
"Tak - Anjang kan buat class conversion start esok (Monday)... why ek?"
"Ade la... "
"Haiyoh - perlu ke? Cakap jer lah... "
"Angah nak Anjang masuk Miss, boleh?"
"Miss ape? Mistake!? EHEHEHE"
"Ha - buat la lawak cam tu - orang serious nih..."
"Yer laaa yer lah - ratu? Ratu2 cantik tu ke? Haiyoh!!! BESTNYE!!! BILE! DI MANA!?!?!"
"In due time Angah akan explainkan kat Anjang... sabar... jom makan dulu nak? Cik Ngah lapaq lah..."

SO it was MISS2 and pageant2 la pulak dah? Haiyoh - keinginan yang meluak2 ke? Tak sangat! Sebab mek feeling nak buat show lagi. Anyways, masuk miss2 ape pulak, ek? Macam Miss Serdang tu ke? Hmmm... Ramai ke yang masuk? Cantik2 ke? I was like macam... excited - but at the same time - I was like, haiyoh - takut jugak. Like, yer lah, first time bertanding2 ratu tu. Ape yang diaorang nak? How would I be judged? Macam - semuanye Angah tannak cakap lagi. Yang dia tahu hanye...

"Sabar lah Anjang nih! Ish... in due time Cik Ngah cakap lah ape yang Anjang patut tahu, buat, beli, get ready... sabar lah! Rileks siket. Hari nih baru Isnin, contest tu Sabtu malam nih. Lama lagi tu...."
"Well - atleast, tell me, kat mane!? Dan ape titlenye?"
"Ok - Cik Ngah cakap yag nih je tau - selebihnye - LEPAS MAKAN or MALAM KARANG, ok?" sambil mengunyah2 burger Cheese Mc D nye tu...
"Ok... hmmm.. SO!?"
"Hish - pertanding tu kat Kelana Jaya - pemenang akan bawa title, Miss Teen World 2001, yang juga akan bawak title, Miss KJ!"

Miss KJ!? Miss Korek Jubor ke!?!? Sentap tau title Miss Korek Jubor! DINCH LAH! MISS KELANA JAYA LERRR!!! CHOYYYYY!!!!! Segalanye kan terjawab di Episode ke 7 ONCE UPON A TIME I WAS THAT SHOWGIRL!!!!!!!!
