My 2 Sen WorthSorry for the delay. Kinda busy working in order to make ends meet... =P 
My 2 Sen Worth competition was held on the 5th of August. Since my family went for a 1 night cruise, stayed over at my aunt's place after work as I will have to be at Menara Star by 6.30am. There were 3 busses which brought all the teams to Genting. Reached there by 10am for some briefing. Things were pretty complicated between Bernice and myself minutes before the competition... *sighs* but its alright.. It's JUZ a GAME! =D 
Task 1 - Balance Your Portfolio We were suppose to create a tower that must be free standing at the time of measurement with the items provided and must be completed within 35 minutes. *the faster you are, the better* As it was our first task, both of us were pretty careful in deciding the arrangements of stuffs given. (the tower must be at least 7 feet high) pics from R.A.G.E gallery 
wahahahaha! Kan Cheong-ness. If it fall, they'll have to build it all againnn Finished it within 20 minutes cause we thought the highest will win. heh Task 2 - Marketing Makeover 
pic from r.a.g.e This was the 1st task that required us to run around looking for the venue. Genting World Bowling Foyer. Had to decorate 2 vases with the equipment provided and later sell them to the public for a minimum of RM20. Both of us thought it was RM20 PER VASE ......... -_- The one I painted was rather 'artistic' while Bernice's vase looked very da memory lane. LoL eh we were rushing for time okay! After both of us painted it, we ran our seperate ways to sell the vasses for RM20 each!!! Some Arabian couple walked away after I told them that the vase will cost them RM20 -__- stupid Saudis. Can buy Coach bag but cannot spend RM20 for charity ah? Luckily Bernice found this GENEROUS Chinese man from MALAYSIA who bought our vases for RM30. another RM10 was from this guy who gave it to Bernice but not wanting the vase. and off we ran to our base at Times Square to report. Running back also very stressing cause we thought we were late. Task 3 - The Call Of The Entrepreneur! Required to make 5 burgers according to the recipe. We were kinda late as we didn't know where Magic Mountain (Outdoor Theme Park) was. Quickly chopped the onions, cucumbers and tomatoes. Bernice were in-charge of frying the burgers. After putting in all the required recipes, we had to wrapped them nicely. Out of 5, the Marshal will choose 2 randomly which must be eaten by us in order to get an approved stamp. Quickly stuffed the burger into my mouth like nobody's business which was quite difficult !!! The burger were not as nice as McD so you can't expect me to swallow them T___T It was horror of all horror....I was suffocating...and nearly vommitted as I munched and forced it down my throat unlike Bernice who stuffed it all into her mouth =P me : Marshal.. done.. DONE! *mouth filled with burger* Marshal : EI! why your hair also got burger wan!! no no.. must swallow Finished the task and quickly ran all the wayyyyy back. luckily we were in time. Task 4 - Risk or No Risk? 
pic from r.a.g.e - guys from S.I.T we befriended At this point, I was really exhausted from all the running in and out. Task was at Vision City. Am suppose to obtain a minimom of 50 tokens from the machines. We both didnt know that we were suppose to borrow the money from the Maybank Counter so we ran ALL THE WAY to Vision City (very daaa far!!!). Reached up there and found out we had to run all the way back to the base to collect some money. bla bla bla yada yada didn't manage to obtain the 50 tokens but got back in time =( its okay.............its okay Task 5 - A Day In A Life London Garden (Outdoor Theme Park) 
Pic from r.a.g.e Required to pack vegetables with the given amount. Carrots - 1kg , Chilli Padi - 500 gm, Long Beans - 500 gm, Leafy Vegetable (Kangkung) - 500gm, Cabbage Heads - 5 heads. I think the last task was quite easy but kinda tiring as you have to run back and forth to weigh your vegetables. Finished it within 16 minutes. and then it was lunch =) some random pics from the race.

Apart from earning my own money, this job taught things that books wont. It taught me how to face customers from different walks of life which I must admit, are quite fascinating. If I were to own a company (ceh) in the future, I'll make sure I splurge on marketing + advertising. There was this customer who insisted that he wanted this Olympus cam which cost RM599 but with no sound. I recommended Fuji (RM550 + video + sound) to him but he simply pushed it away saying he has no confidence in it. After persuading him for 30 minutes, he still insisted that stupid Olympus camera (smaller LCD somemore!). Oh well...he paid for the brand.
. Because of her *cough* presence *cough*, I broke my sales record and even stayed on for an extra hour~
