It took
3 days eventually, plus a temporary freezer and last minute home deliveries by
MrBak, but NATOrians can truly be proud of themselves, as we manage to completely sell all our ice creams and raise as much funds as we could for our special NATOrian.
Credit's due when it's due.
Special thanks to
Vincent Koay, who generously donated
RM6000 plus worth of Walls ice creams, arranging and bearing the cost of the ice cream's delivery and the freezer rental, plus lending us your magical voice from you and your band.
Imagine that.
RM 6000 worth of ice creams!
Thank you Mr. Janaronson from the ECA in making sure we had all the equipment needed for that 3 days, plus publishing our flyers and posters.
Ms Suhzean, for her guidance, ideas and advice, and without her, this event wouldn't have happened at all.
Thank you genereous lecturers who bought a huge amount of ice creams, and on top of that, contributed a whole lot more as donation.
Thank you, to friends and students, who bought the ice creams and willingly contributed their change as donations. Every ice cream did make a difference =)
Before the event
We had a week's break before the big day, but posters and banners designed by Aaron was already put up all over TBS and Main Campus. Meanwhile, the online promotion received good response via Facebook and blogs.
2 Days before the big day, we had a lunch-till-dinner meeting at Old Town, to finalise our preparations, with full attendance despite the hangover from the previous night at Laundry
Day 1
1000 Flyers were distributed by Bak, Aaron, Qian, Fish, Mun Teng, Rain, Abigail at the ADP building, TBS, and TUCMC to create awareness
Making the final arrangements

Bak, Xuan, Fish, Mun Teng, Fei Fei and Kelvin were at TBS the first day, while Aaron, Qian, SK, Yoon, Rain and Abigail were at TUCMC
Hundreds of people queueing up to buy ice creams at lunch time
MrBak, the emcee, attracting customers
At TUC Main Campus
After a long day, all of us were exhausted and hungry, having skipped lunch
Which explains the funny expressions. Lol
Day 2The 2 teams swap places, as we look forward to raise more funds.
MrBak appealing to the public again, albeit with less efffectiveness compared to TBS..
Unfortunately, it rained both days, but the storm on the 2nd day was accompanied with strong winds, causing the team at TUCMC to abandon ship midway, after having our PA System, a freezer, and Bak's laptop charger soaked in the rain. We had to hold on to the canopy to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.
Thankfully, Aaron came to the rescue and drove us back to TBS. Even at TBS, the rain caused a lot of disruptions as well.
Using the board as protection from the unforgiving rain
We are deeply touched by the generosity and kindness displayed by a huge huge majority of the students. Sad to say, however, there are one or two
sampah masyarakat from TUC Main Campus who chose to be snobbish, arrogant, and worse still, there are those who probably do not value life or clearly wasn't educated well by their parents. I won't wanna curse them here. We believe what goes around comes around, and to those who have contributed, no matter
RM1 or RM100, you know you've done a good deed.
With love
