Gatsby Deodorant Fair

Well finals are like next week :( And I'm feeling depress. I have already gotten four of my coursework marks. Here are the pictures of the deodorant street fair that I have promised you about. When I first went to the Gatsby fair, I had no idea that everything was going to be RED!!!! Red hot chilli pepper red. My favorite color in the entire world. And best of all I was dressed for the occasion.

We went to the fair in berjaya times square after Valen finished his first finals paper for the day (Damnit, he gets to enjoy an earlier holiday while I will be slaving over mine next week. Not Looking FORWARD to it AT ALL :( )
Initially I was not clad in red, however I was wearing my white top with the cherries print on it, accompanied with a red watch, and red ballet flats, not to mention holding a red lunchbox bag.
This is Valen here, posing in front of the Gatsby backdrop.
As you can see the crowd was huge. This fair actually entered into the Malaysian book of records for holding one of the largest blogger gatherings. The estimate number of bloggers were about 518 (since the last count at about 11 or 12 something in the afternoon).
I absolutely love the picture above. :) Too bad the box was there to ruin it -...-

Upon arriving, we were asked to register our names and the guest we brought. Valen and I were given goodie bags which include a fan, a pamphlet and a RED t-shirt for us to wear during the fair. We were even give lucky draw forms to fill out.
The fair as you can expect had games. (Hello, street fair, did you expect anything less?) They had this huge snakes and ladders game spread out for you to play.
Then there were some beating game.
Us camwhoring MUAHAHHAHA. See how red were we? >:D
The crowd.

The emcee
There were speeches given by some VIP including the Nuffnang Co founder and also the Malaysian Record holder founder.



The opening ceremony.
At this point of time, we were all asked to do some live tweeting.
Me and Audrey Fourfeetnine. It was my first time meeting her, and she is really nice. She said my red lunchbox bag was cute :) hehe

We were given some time off so we decided to go and have some Krispy Kreme breakfast.


Oh and I had to camwhore in my completely red outfit.
Then we headed out for some games. I didn't manage to capture all the pictures of the games. But here are a few ones. Oh and just so you know if you achieve their game target, coupons were given to you for you to change for deodorants, perfume sprays, hair gels and other forms of gatsby products.... However, we didn't manage to redeem any of our gifts because we had to leave early.



Here is a picture of me playing miniature golf.

And finally I have to post this picture up. :) My lunchbox red bag. I know I know I sound damn contradicting from my previous post, but I just can't help it.
Red is awesome possum!
Okay now I've got finals to conquer. Not sure I can do it.
