Post-Mortem: General

in general:

• Great MCs u had there!
• MCs!!

thanks! Navin and Chu May will be really encouraged to hear this! :D By the way, this is the first time that they are emcee-ing a function. am grateful to the friends who have suggested Navin and Chu May! and also super grateful that they agreed to do it! yay! :D

• Nice attempt... Also good job on reducing the ticket price, I know u guys put much effort in that, perhaps put as much effort in the actual event itself, that's the part the audience see and feel...

thanks for the acknowledgment on the ticket price :)

anyway, in all honesty, i think we did put in as much effort as we could for the actual event. well, perhaps, taking a step back and putting myself in the shoes of someone who has perhaps attended Malam quite a few times, well, i might perhaps say the same thing. or perhaps this is your first time attending Malam. well, i dunno who you are, but imagining myself as a guest and an audience, ya, perhaps i might say this too. coz thinking back - not everything was really up to par :p anyway, do refer to the post on performances :p and thanks for your honest feedback! :) it's great!

on another tone, for my team and my dear friends, kindlye bear with my honesty and perhaps even biasness as i say this: yes, we might have fallen short of your (and some other people) expectations, but for four full months - the team has sacrificed a lot to make Malam happen - that effort is already worth applauding. the sleepless nights, the stress, the sacrifice, the commitment, the meetings they have to attend, the plannings, the effort to bring people together for rehearsals etc etc... :)

however, i always have to remind myself that sometimes it's the result that matters.. it's like i could have poured hours into studying but still not do well in my exam.. :p so regardless of the effort, sometimes it's the result that matters. so perhaps, my efforts weren't still enough. the irony of life?

anyway, please bear with me and hope that you will be able to understand my sentiments for my team :)

constructive criticisms leads to growth. so ya, thank you again for your i do believe that we are capable to do better and with all well-wishes, may the team next year pull off a great show!!

• Very well done especially the team members' effort. Keep up the good work.
• Job well done.
• Great job. Well done.
• Bernard looks cool!
• generally well organised. :) Loved the level of commitment put in by the comittee
• It was a well-thought out event! You guys gave much thought to making it like "home"...and the jokes were funny as!
  

i have a feeling that the above comments are mainly from those who have been seeing the team working and preparing for Malam :p anyway, even if you aren't, thanks for the encouragements. and to those who have been seeing us through the whole Malam process, giving us the moral support and encouragements, especially my flatmates when i was so stressed with the financial part, THANK YOU very much!!!
