I was in shock after heard Pn. Milfarina told us that we have to make our own advertisement for the school's Advert Competition among the Perdagangan students. My classmates, had been arranged in groups and mine are with Farhani, Balqis and Najihah. The four of us got our title for the commercial and a product with the brand of our own. Pn. Milfarina chose milk product for us for a memorable commercial. Shit! My friends were already in panic while I am grateful I am not in the other teams. My product was easy, rather than my friend's group, Akid got frying pan for their product. I mean what will they do with that? The assignment must be sent in Tuesday and the task was been given on Monday last week. But I just started and finished two hours later.
Late? You are damn right. Because my idea on the commercial failed. Three times. Let me tell you my journey.
I first planned a milk for a pregnant women, it was the plan. I don't know why but, my other group members didn't speak their words so I, as their leader, proceed the plan. And so I wrote the story, the pregnant woman felt tired as she saw the messy house, then she open the fridge and sees the milk. I called it 'Eddie'. Drank it and observed a little energy from the milk and completed her duty. Finally she sits down and saw at the edge of the room, she haven't finish do the laundry. She is so tired and as she wake up, her husband finally apear from work, said "let me", and she smile, me focusing at the milk on the table, and beside it has a word 'while waiting...'. The end. Perfect!! But there was a problem, I must shoot it in a peaceful and calm house. First thing I thought was Ikea. Yeah crazy but I have Asya who can drive. So I told my friends no worries. But I was wrong. Like usual and I regret that I should have see this coming, Asya changed her mood. Disaster! I have to find another place!! Called all my friends and group members, none of them can help me. I thought "is this an individual task? Shit". And finally I found someone who can help. But still, Asya!!!! Fuck I had to follow her schedule as she is the pregnant woman and my friends house, after the arguments, I canceled the plan.
Later, planned Asya, sat in a Cafe', lonely and wanted a company, as I sat beside her table with all the attention she'd crave for, I act all arrogantly with my looks, she stood up and bought a milk. After drinking it, she walked pass me and I felt her beauty. I was angry and anxious in finding out who had beaten me against my beauty? I followed her and so on all the people followed her. She felt weird and uncomfortable so she stops our chase and ask why, I was mad at her and mumbled all over and stopped, asked "what is that?" and she, out of nowhere, promoted the drink. And all the people surrounded her while leaving me behind. The end, was me looking jealously towards her at the left end and she was at the right end, drinking the milk with a handsome man beside her while the milk's bottle at the centre. Magnificent idea!! Yet, still a failure. Not because the crowd, I can make the crowd easily but the commercial wasn't the memorable commercial. It's a persuadable commercial. Shittooooo!!!!
Last idea was simple and I am in it, the main character with the group members. At the Cafe' again, I was sitting alone waiting for my friends to come while doing some works. After waiting and waiting, I went for the shop and bought a milk. I sat back and wright. My pen fell, fetched it up and reached for my milk and it was gone. Weird at first, I searched and searched but it wasn't there. So I bought another. Same, gone. For the fourth time I bought them and went missing too. As I was searching, I look back and saw all four of my milk arranged at my table written Hai :) on it, and there was my friends, apologising for being late. We all laugh and at the end, stated "(name of the milk).., bring us all closer together..). But still!!!! Failed!! Because? First, my sister is busy. She said she has an assignment to make yet I saw her watching Supernatural at iMac. Wow!! And second, my group members. Will they agree and come to the shooting place while they don't even help me? Million Dollar Question!!
Finally, after all my fault of believing Asya and not preparing and plan as a group properly, I apologised and promised I'll do all the plan, shoot, edit. Well without the promise it'll still be the same but, what to do.. I did the commercial with my new model. Diya!! a freaking baby!! Haha. It was a blast and funny. Through out the journey, I realized, it's not the friends we must depend on, or a lousy sister. It's our family that always have my back. And now, I am posting this while drinking the milk, at my spinning-the-mind iMac, breathing smoothly because I finished my commercial and got a good respond by my sisters. A wild respond actually. I planned, arranged, took care of the heat and edited it. And for me, this individual task, even though I might not win, it is.. a blast :)
