Okay, so think positive... after all, it's for a good cause... >.<>
Upon arrival there, we had just come to realize how many parties were actually participating in the event.. okay, we're in malaysia.. i never expected so many people to turn up for a charity event... and understandably, due to the hustle and bustle of the place, we were completely being ignored, and resembled a merry band of idiots waiting at the front gate for perhaps the sky to fall...
Finally, our sensible Mr Chelliah decided to take matter into his own hands and found our stall.. which.. was definitely ill-placed, as it was at the very end of the premises ( yes, where they reach you only after successfully spending all their cash) and also due to the fact that for a total of 10 students, all we had was a minimal sized table to work with... -.- On the plus side though, we were stationed next to the Domino's Pizza stall, which made locating lunch easy... ^^
Alright, so we got down to business, by making our 'Fruit Punch' which was to be our sales item for the day. The other half of my course mates were given the task of selling Popsicles ( very enthusiastically at that)...
Okay, the ingredients for our fruity punchy...
Nata de Coco... Yummy.. ^^
Several bags of ice cubes...
Sparkling Juice of many flavours.. and also canned fruit... and a fews bottles of soda...
First batch of Punch...
And finally, the best part of the job... Sampling.. ^^ ( which later developed into pilfering...)
Well, according to the verdict of the majority of us, the punch was yummy-licious... the only issue though is that we knew what went in to making it.. to the extent we were considering changing the stall name to something along the line of 'instant Diabetics"...
... and here's proof... see them?? No?? well, let me make it a little clearer for you...
Ant invasion.. >.<
Alright, ready for business...
Meanwhile, on the other side of the stall...
Popsicles.. ^^ ( whoops.. i labeled wrongly.. i labeled two 'oranges' but one's actually mango... too lazy to re-edit)
What did i say about pilfering? this is just one instance of many many many more.. >.< Okay, sales started off slow.. real slow...
Feeling compromised by our location, Mr Chelliah decided to send people out to take the product to the people instead, as well as reduce the prices... well, glad to say it worked out well.. while he, on the other hand, started... erm.. promoting our stall??Mr Chelliah in action... well, a sample of it... this went on for hours... ( sorry that it's tilted the wrong way... my bad...)
Soon sales picked up really well, and we had to make additional batches of Punch.. however, due to the difference in ingredients, we ended up with different products... thankfully, each batch seemed better than the previous, and soon converted our sales pitch into something along the line of 'new and improved recipe' ....
the Second Batch is a darker colour due to Grape Sparkling Juice...
The third batch being darker still...
Punch for sale... ^^ ( note the different colours resulting for different batches)
And our ever-successful sales team... Anusha, Yee Chen and Joseph... I was given the task of formulating the punch instead.. and later replaced Anusha in 'waitressing'..
Well, soon everything was sold out.. and we got to go home... ^^ the end of an interesting experience...
Other events of the day...
The gang just chilling...
Mibu and Aaron sharing some inside joke probably...
Joseph and Anusha...
Yee Chen and I...
Waitressing anyone??
Josh, Stephanie and Caryn... advertising coupon booklets for some reason...
Joshua either making fun of the box or looking for ways to get to what's inside.. >.<
