Casting Experience

My brother and his family came back to Kedah, so we took the chance to visit KL. At the same time, my friend L was back from Doha.

Our first day event was for Id's casting! It was perfect timing since we were already in KL. I had registered him with an agency when he was about 9 months old, but we hadn't received any job offers until recently. It was for Similac milk formula.

The casting was at an agency in Sri Hartamas. We were greeted by a young man with a camera who asked me to fill out an online form. Id was called first. When the man asked for his name, Id said "Id." He was asked to stand in the middle of the room, but he wanted to play hide and seek instead! He went to a corner, faced the wall, and counted 1 to 10. He did the same in another corner. The man said, "Come on! I don't have time for this!" I was furious when he said that. Id is still just a little boy, and this was his first time. I told him so.

Eventually, Id stood in the middle of the room. The cameraman asked him to do a few poses, and he did. Well done, Id!

Next was the acting part. I had to assist by holding him and putting him to sleep, but Id didn't want to close his eyes. The cameraman said, "Oh, there's nothing I can do about it!" (Erghhh)

He then asked if Id drinks milk, gave him a glass, and asked him to drink it and say "Ahhhhh" like it was refreshing, but Id didn't do it. He tried with water, but Id still didn't make the sound.

The cameraman said he would still show Id's footage to his client and noted that Id is still young.

I complained to our agent about the treatment. She said it's OK, the more Id goes to castings, the more comfortable he will become.

A few days later, we went to our agent to update Id's profile. He wasn't very cooperative, but we were told again that bringing him to more castings will help him get comfortable. The agency noticed that Id has huge potential in modeling. Alhamdulillah!

This was when we were at the agency to update Id's profile.

Till then!

Life is so complex yet simple, kan? Dulu, when I thought about MYR 200, I felt it was such a small amount, but now that sum is incredibly precious and valuable. I remember the days when I could spend money on manicures every other week—bags and shoes? Tak payah habaq, so many! Thinking back on all the things I used to afford makes me feel grateful. Alhamdulillah, Allah has allowed me to experience what I have wished for and nak! I wanted a marriage with SS, and even though it was short-lived, Allah granted that wish. Now I have Id, I couldn't be more thankful. I have also had the chance to travel, and I just pray that I can continue to explore the world with Id and eventually go for umrah and haji together. With everything happening in my life now, I feel a deep sense of gratitude and syukur. I am also blessed with family and friends who support me 💝 I have been away because of the program I’m currently in, which ends on November 16. I have been busy but will be back again to upda...

Dah lama sangat I have not been updating on here. Dah lah I don't have any other social media so some of you dah tak boleh tengok what's been going with me and Id. But wait, I do have an Instagram account just for my personal use with family as followers. I think I have 11 followers. That's enough and please do not ask for permission to add me. Nothing much is there I only update on IGS and it's all about Id. Siapa lagi kan? The program I attended ended in Nov last year. It's more like preparation for going back to work. 23 of us, that were out of work for more than a year. A lady was out of work for more than 15 years. They could be because taking care of kids or laid off or just like me contract ended and was not renewed. For 9 weeks I was travelling Kedah - KL every week. Thursday to KL and Sunday we will be back in Kedah. Our graduation was on Nov 16 ... We had to do presentation. I was quite gabra juga because I have not been doing it for a while now. I like th...
