Yeyness!

I had fun with the Antigong Agong musical play. A lot. And writing about every single detail that happened would not even justify the amount of fun I had during the play. Too bad my phone's at its stupid state once again. I couldn't send the pictures that I took and it just sucks considering I erased some of my old pics just to ensure that I'll have enough space for the play's pics. * sigh.

Going back, the story is about a young man, Samsullah Ahmin, who didn't know where to find the amount of money which is needed as a dowry in the Muslim tradition. He then decided to leave the country and work in Iraq to seek for a greener pasture. When he was about to leave, his fiancee's grandmother decided not to let Sam leave and instead of the dowry, he was tasked to find the "antigong agong" which has witnessed the war against the Americans 100 years ago. The search was began and so with the endless trials they had faced just to find this huge agong.

It also talked about the changes we have to deal with and the fact that something's never change. Even if it was a 100 yr old story in Jolo, Sulu, it will continue to live on a hundred years more because it is already a part of who they are.

I'm inlove now with the Tausug tradition. hehe. Really, I am. Or maybe because I have the tendency to like everything colorful in sight?
  • What just lacked during that moment is a mocha frappe. Just that. And I will really be at my happiest self. hehe.

It's really a worthwhile experience. :)
