Night It Up Event Day 2

What a day what a day, so many things happened that I am sure I will forget some things when I write this blog post tonight. Its already 4:07am in the morning and at 4:00am, I finally returned home. Today I started my day wake up 10 minutes before my departure for a St. John's First Aid Course. In those ten minutes, I had to shower, pack my lunch and make sure I am ready. Rushed into the subway and arrived a few minutes early before our course started. The course was not that boring yet it was not interesting at all because it was first-aid. I am sure many of us first-aiders will not help people in need in any situation when they are not required to because there are always chances that we get sued. I for one may depend on performing first aid but it all DEPENDS.

At lunch, everyone got MacDonalds for lunch and the whole room that we were doing the first-aid course was smelling of fries and hamburgers. I ate two pieces of bread and was jealous of all those MacDonald buyers. We finished our course at 6:00pm and I left to go home. I got a large ice cappucino to make me stay awake for the next 7 hours of work and to treat myself after 8 hours of first-aid.
My E3 challenge was supposed to start at 5:00pm but I was not able to go because of my first aid course. I was required to be present from 9:00am-6:00pm for my first aid course. I could not leave early which was very frustrating. I arrived at Night It Up at 7:15pm and I heard my booth were not doing so well. I hope with me present, our booth was more successful. We had more prizes and I was on the megaphone for like a few hours yelling about our booth and to have people come over and try. I lost my voice in the process and I also met a lot of my friends. I also learned a lot about using a megaphone. Then we had a chance to go up on the stage to give a short advertisement to promote our booth. I was supposed to be a poker chip and I was thrown down onto a tile to demonstrate how our booth worked. I fell hard on the stage to make it look realistic and got hurt.

Over the next 6 hours, my team and I worked hard to earn as much as we can and we were happy to have many customers try our booth. After that, we sold our prizes as our game was coming to an end. Darn people sure love bargaining when our prizes were so cheap. They kept decreasing the prices and we were forced to give in and sell the prizes at the low prices. I was somewhat happy since we were still making money but not as much. I found a nice group of hong kong people who was really really great bargainers. I spent so much time persuading them to buy our prizes. I spent some money on the cheap things other people were selling such as bubble tea, meatballs, chicken on stick and aloe tea. It was a good night.
