Latihan Saman ~ Saman Practice ~

Hari Jum'at kemarin latihan tari Saman buat persiapan acara bulan Maret nanti, menyambut anak-anak dari Osaka dan Wakayama yang akan datang ke Binus. Kali ini dua teman seangkatan, Faizah sama Maya juga ikut gabung latihan! Dan Faizah yang jadi coach buat semuanya karena dia yang paling hafal Saman! Tarian Saman-nya sama kayak yang tahun sebelumnya, tapi kali ini Faizah nambahin gerakan baru. Yang bersangkutan juga bilang dari dulu pingin ditambah XD

At Friday we practiced Saman dance for the event next March, welcoming students from Osaka and Wakayama who will come to Binus. This time there were two classmates who joined the practice with me, Faizah and Maya! And Faizah also becomes the coach for everyone because she's the one who remembers Saman the most! The Saman dance was the same as years before, but this time Faizah decided to add new moves. The former said she had always wanted to add it XD

Suasana para kōhai sedang latihan. Karena aku sama Faizah ada kelas, jadi selesainya duluan.
(The juniors were training. Me and Faizah have a class, so we finished first).

Capek juga karena perlahan-lahan tempo gerakannya jadi makin cepet, selain itu duduk seiza terus kaki jadi kesemutan dan pegel2. Karena susah latihan tanpa ada ketua selama nari Saman ini, akhirnya salah satu kōhai, Anna (anak yang di tengah di foto), dipilih buat jadi ketua :D

It was quite tiring because slowly the tempo became faster, and throughout the dance we must sit in seiza style so our foots were crammed. Because it'll be difficult to practice without a leader during Saman dance, in the end we pick one of the juniors, Anna (at the centre of the photo), to become the leader.

Selain itu juga ada masalah buat nyanyi lagu Saman-nya. Harusnya semua anggota nyanyi, tapi bukan hanya belum pada hafal, ada khawatir kalau semuanya nyanyi nanti tenaga-nya cepet abis sebelum selesai. Sejauh ini ada dua orang yang hafal, tapi biar lebih aman, aku juga mau hafalin lagunya... Sampai sekarang masih belum hafal, sih...(_ _lll)

And there's also problem with singing the Saman song. All members supposed to sing it together, but not only we have yet to memorized the lyrics, we're also worried that if everyone sings it will cost a lot of energies before finish. So far only two people remembers the song, but just in case, I also want to memorise the song... Until now I'm still trying to memorise though...(_ _lll)

YOSHA! GANBARU!
