.: November 2016

Ohana means family in Hawaii, and with that concept in mind, I would really like to see all students and staffs playing games to create bonding among mimetians. So, students won't feel to awkward with the staffs and it's easier for the staffs to do their works when they get themselves understood by the students. Target participants for this event is 500 students in total and 50 staffs. The event in my imaginary is so simple. We will plat traditional sport like galah panjang, tarik tali, rebut kerusi but all in gigantic size/area. It only cost students' energy and no money. How wonderful is that, kan? to play and riadah together.

To conduct this event, there were lot things to consider or to be re-considered. Most of mimet's students, did not interested to participate in the program or event conducted by management, src or even clubs. That's why, most program and activity was done in small scale (usually 10 to 40 people). I am actually taking a big risk by targeting 500 students to join Ohanaday2016, but I dare to take the challenge. After all, the journey is never the best without some adventure kan? Haha.

As an exco in SRC, I have KPI to achieve that is to create an event, so in early of April this year, I propose this event in the meeting and alhamdulillah the idea was accepted.

As a Program Director (pd) of this event, I am responsible to ensure this event will run smoothly regardless of what happened. Macam, lantaklah orang nak kata apa, janji event ni gempak vavavoom. Sebab I was thinking, this is an opportunity for me. Peluang untuk prove to myself that I can do something to benefit others. Memanglah the money is not mine in the first place but it was my idea to create such event. Haha (bagilah can nak show off kejap) Haha!

That is why, I give 70% of my effort for this event. Ha, one important things that people must know about me is, when I am working, you will meet a different Farhana. So, please don't expect to see playful and easy-going Farhana. When comes to work, I want to be very detailed. I want to know every single things that happened under my lead, so I can figure it out how to control the event, so if anything goes wrong, I know how to come out with reasonable solution. and as a pd, I can see myself as a leader for this event (THIS EVENT ONLY OKAY, BUKAN AS A LEADER OF SRC) -- I need to highlight this, because I don't want people think that I want to be president of SRC.

As the one who lead this program, I assigned member of SRC to position yang I think suit with their capability. My imaginary team is a team which every time I ask about what's going on, they know what to answer and I expect them to at least have the answer. Senang cerita, I didn't expect to hear they say "belum lagi" "esok kot" "tak sempat"!! so, when I hear excuses like that, instead of getting mad as usual sebab bila jadi SRC, aku macam dah hilang hak untuk beremosi (ni aku cerita lain hari. tulis ni je dah buat hati panas balik). *TAKE A DEEP BREATH*

Okay, so, when people cannot get what I wanted, I will go and get it done by myself. and if I can work faster than them, I'll not wait for them. Why? because the event is getting closer. I couldn't let last minute decision ruin my plan. So. when someone say as pd, aku dah sailang dia punya kerja, aku just buat pekak telinga, masuk telinga kanan keluar telinga kiri. Because I couldn't make them understand how I work, so let them be, yang penting event aku success. And they refuse to listen for my instruction (they did eventually), because they claim, they should receive the order from Program Coordinator (pc)/

wow. wow. wow. Masa lain2 event. Pd seems to have direct contact with the committee and bila tiba my event, suddenly the practice of rule change. Haha. Whatever - I didn't care anyway.

So the event end with fireworks. Unfortunately, the next morning, bunga api tu jadi hot issue in mimet. some students complaining about how src spend the money on things like that. -_-ada je! But it;s okay sebab dia ada hak untuk suarakan pendapat dia dan marilah kita sama-sama meraikan hak bersuara itu. That's why aku tak nak balas apa-apa regarding on dia punya statement. sebab dia bukan particopate pun dalam event tu. Tapi petang tu pula, dia tambah lagi staement dia which make me decide to reply the statement with a statement. The issue remain hot for 3days.

The thing is, I have expected things like this will happened. You can't assume you'll only get positive feedback when running a program, that is why I have prepared myself for this things. Jenis aku, suka confront apa yang dipertangunggjawabkan keatas aku, baik before, during or after the event. I will become the knights and I don't need to hide behind someone's else shield. So, when we decide to reply the statement, there is a little arguments between me and the president. I think, as a pd, i should be the one who decide but he think as a president, he should take over as he said people will look for him if any. **buatmuka**Hello!! yes you're the president, but people are looking all of us as src. which is, aku pun dibabi and dinoob kan juga oleh student mimet yang lalu depan mata aku dalam library. kau rasa? so do you still think that people will only go and looking for you?

before the program start pun, something happened dalam group president of all 23 clubs in mimet. And you know what? I'm fighting alone in the group. No one else appear to back me up. so, bila program dah success, baru nak claim, event ni event sama-sama. sebelum event, tak nak cerita??

Oh yeas, I am a bit emotional/. I am not a baby to be protected okay. Kalau orang nak critic the event, silakan. Aku akan hadap as aku yang bertanggungjawab. The way he say it, buat aku rasa macam useless. I'm not weak. And the purpose of SRC organization is to educate you how to lead, so kalau dah kau sorang nak lead semua benda, aku ni, nak belajar apa? when it's other people turn to lead, let them lead. don't question then of whats and whys. Only then, we can identify which method is the best to apply. When you tell us that you're an open minded person, please prove it and when you say you practice professionalism, please act like one.

Yeah all in all, it's a great opportunity and a lot to learn on how things should be done properly. so, please enjoy some picture and video throughout the event.
