The students of Department of Communication and Liberal Arts (DCLA) at Sunway University are running a Malaysian theme campaign- TogetherLAH! We decide to launch our campaign in conjunction with the upcoming Malaysia Day. Today is the day, the launch of our campaign! Everyone arrives early to class for the final touches.
At the back of the classroom, all the equipment for the flash mob are ready to go! Our lecturer, Mr. Suffian gives us words of encouragement to give our best during the launch of the campaign. Everyone especially the girls are putting on make up. As I'm making a final appearance, a simple lipstick will do the trick.
Outfit wise, I'm in an all-black ensemble and draped with the Malaysia flag, to show the love of the country. At 10.00am, we head to another classroom to continue the things we left off just now. We turn on patriotic songs to suit the atmosphere.
Half an hour later, we run through a final rehearsal. We have to move the tables and chairs to a side due to the size of the classroom. I'm in charge of the music as I'm sitting at the computer table. To pass the time, we browse through YouTube videos to search more patriotic songs and music which are made in Malaysia by our very own Malaysian singers.
As the time of the flash mob nears , we have a quick round up of briefing. Besides, the campaign is not all about work. Don't forget to just smile and most importantly have fun! Once we get the signal from Daniel that is time to go down for the flash mob which is held at the university foyer, located near Fresco cafeteria. We split into two groups in either side of the lift to save time.
When we arrive at the foyer, the flash mob starts off with the Malay dance. We clap to the beat and cheer our course mates on, also to live up the mood for the people who drop by to watch our performance. I'm ushered by Kavind to grab my seat which is already prepared for me. Next up is the Chinese dance, follow by the Indian dance- which is one of my favorites.
Towards the end of the Indian dance, it's time for me to get into position for the final song of the performance. At the start of the final song- Malaysia Boleh! Ezac leads the team with the first clap, that's when my cue comes in to join in the final dance of the flash mob. Once positioned in my seat, the song comes in.
The flash mob ends with Joanne, our campaign director, gives an introductory of the campaign and leads the whole team by shouting our tagline: We stand TogetherLAH! With that, TogetherLAH! campaign is officially on the run! We wish everyone an advance Happy Malaysia Day! We stand TogetherLAH! as a nation.
