Pada suatu hari, I
received a text suruh I pergi casting dekat Primeworks Sri Pentas untuk a
hosting job. Well, I memang teringin gila nak jadi host. Dari dulu (lepas SPM)
I nak jadi host sampai I cakap kat my mom I nak study kat negeri omputeh supaya
fluent sikit cakap English (kalau berhabuk bersawang lagi bagus), boleh jadi VJ
dekat channel V ker… Channel E ker… Camtu sekali berangan.
I like hosting
because you get to be yourself (unlike berlakon kan cam kena jadi orang lain
pastu uhhh awkward moments). I always catch myself watching Jalan-Jalan Cari
Makan and tak sengaja terpiker… Ek
elehhhh I can do that (Don’t lie, you do too sometimes). Seronoknya hidup jalan-jalan…
makan… dan dibayar untuk cakap mmm sedap sedap sedap temui kami lagi minggu
depan di waktu dan hari yang sama. That is THE life that I wanted.
Tapi waktu Primeworks
approach I tuh, awal tahun ini, adalah waktu where it’s no longer a dream job,
I pun tak confident dengan kebolehan diri, I just finished my diploma and nak
teruskan degree. Business pun dah start, nak asah bakat dan timba ilmu saja
lagi untuk jadi lebih berjaya. Aim sekarang cuma nak jadi businesswoman. That’s
it. So I piker lama… nak pergi ker casting kat Sri Pentas nih? Hmm.. untuk TV9
plak tuh. Bukannya Channel V… (amboi kau Mak Jemah)
PLUS I HATE CASTING
(casting nih macam auditionlah). I tak suka knowing that you kena fight for a
job with ramai lagi yang talented and berpengalaman. Like if you want me, bagi
jelah job tuh, takyah casting-casting. Sedih tau camni, dah beria casting pastu
taknak kat kita hmph. Basically, I fear rejection. So everytime orang kata hey, we’d like to invite you to a casting
session, I akan immediately dalam hati “takpelah,
thanks”. Menyombong jauh sekali, lebih kepada tidak yakin diri.
So I pun dengan niat nak
tolak cara baik, I tanyalah pukul berapa casting tuh, kalau busy at least ada
alasan tak pergi kan. I texted “Hi, may I
know what time is the casting session. If it’s an open casting, let me know
what time it starts and sampai pukul berapa habis TQ”.
“Hi. Actually, you can come
whenever. Basically it’s just you, the client wants you. So let me know
what time you’re free for us to cast you.”
YOU CAN COME
WHENEVER. COME WHENEVER.
WHENEVER. Shit. There’s
no way out.
Dengan rendah diri
dan berat kaki, daku tiba di Sri Pentas, naik office Primeworks tingkat satu.
Jumpa producer bernama Saiful dan Cheryl yang selama ini in contact with me.
Pastu diorang dah cerita-cerita pasal konsep show ini, I macam, oh God whyyyy… kenapa aku terjebak nihhh…
mesti orang gelakkan sebab lame-ass tak reti hosting… pastu takde siapa tengok
cerita tuh pastu diorang nyesal pastu… oh well… it’s their fault siapa suruh
nak sangat ambek si tak berpengalaman Hamis Jalikha.. takpelah buat jelah if
the money is good… biaq pi situ outcome dia…hahahaha *gelak kejam dalam hati
sambil ketar-ketar pegang skrip*
I ingat lagi there’s
the bubbly Ina sebagai konon2 my guest untuk the show, Amin the cameraman/asst
producer nak tape my casting session, haduh… all these strangers and here I am
have to pura-pura mengacara. So I just buat jelah, mampus situ. Just be myself
kengkonon. And it sucked. The whole thing sucked. Terlalu nervous. But they… are okay with it? Mesti nak sedapkan hati I kata I'm doing okay, and hati mereka juga. Padahal pasti
terlintas di benak sanubari mereka “Ya
Allah apesal client nak sangat budak ni hostkan Mad Markets?!!”. Sorry
guys.
Akhirnya kata sepakat
mereka adalah, Hanis Zalikha untuk Mad Markets. Gulp. They managed to convince
me (yelah si amatur having second thoughts and all). They said they’ll train me
don’t worry. Basically Saiful, Amin and Adlin yang beria kata boleh boleh jangan risau kitorang akan ajar
sampai you jadi best. Sobs, aku tak best ker T_T Fine.
Dan kini… terhasillah
Mad Markets, sebuah shopping travelogue di mana SAYA MELANCONG KE SELURUH ASIA
UNTUK SHOPPING! I will show you all the good places to shop! Uhh..hello, shopping?! Dibayar untuk melancong, makan, dan
