OMG IT'S ONLY THURSDAY. Been such a busy ass week. Tomorrow's gonna be one more long day. Fridays always have to be long, don't they. Stupid girls' school. -.- I was forced to do CIP today...I thought I managed to escape it yesterday, but I came to school this morning and received the news that I would still have to go do the CIP with another class today. Fml. So for CIP, we sold cookies and muffins (like freakin girl scouts) at Tampines Giant to raise funds for the ex-convicts. To help aid their family and to also to help them re-integrate with society again.  I have to admit, it was pretty fun. We got shot down by many stingy aunties & uncles, but still, it was heartwarming to see that there are still people who would donate a $10 bill without asking for anything. 

Even though I was pretty upset that I was forced to go on the trip in the beginning, I ended up having some fun! Siveeta, Sonia and I were selling cookies and muffins pretty quickly! Of course with the help of our innocent acts, sweet smiles and battering of our eyelids (; I remember our tactic of approaching every guy that looked like an ex-convict. Hahaha and fat kids cuz they prolly might wanna eat the muffins and cookies more, rich looking aunties, caucasians, oh and NS men cuz we knew they couldn't say no while wearing their uniform! Hahaha. The ah bengs and mats were the easiest to score. How could they say no to cute girls in uniform? (;

Siveeta, Sonia and I managed to sell 4 whole cartons of cookies & muffins within 3 hours! Whew! We're good entrepreneurs. Hahaha. We also managed to garner many donations. Every class thought that this class was a bit nuts when we announced the goal amount. Every other class were aiming for $400 - $600. Everyone didn't seem to quite believe it when 5A2 announced that they aim to earn $1,000. Everyone else kind of laughed...but guess what, 5A2 garnered $1,080 from the cookies & muffins sales alone. Which means, it's EXCLUDING the donations in the coin boxes! & that should amount to about a few hundred bucks as well! Awesomeee.
