Some of you may have forgotten which team you are in, so the chart's above if you need to know. Please cooperate with your respective managers by doing the jobs that are assigned to you. :)

And actually if there's not enough people in the other groups please help out. No labour, no profit!! (GEOG!!)

And here are the updates on the stuff we’re gonna do during the actual day.

Products:
1. Marshmallows in chocolate – marshmallows, chocolate syrup, satay sticks.
So, there’d be three marshmallows on each stick, and they’d be dipped into chocolate.
Sale price: $1 per stick

2. Bubble tea – bubble tea and icebox
If anyone has an icebox at home please contribute! It’s only going to be used for ONE day.
Sale price: $1.50 per cup.

3. Personalized glass bottles – glass bottles, colored salt, glass paint, ribbons.
We put salt into the glass bottles and maybe paint the bottles with glass paint, (according to customers’ preferences), but we’ll make some sample designs first.
Sale price: $?

4. Personalized tags – Oven (from art club), shrinkable sheets, key rings
Customers can design on the shrinkable sheets and mold them into any shape themselves, and then place them into the oven to bake. Baking will cause these fellas to shrink and become small enough to use as key chains.
Sale price: $2.50 per key chain

5. Personalized pebbles – pebbles, paint, glitter
These pebbles can be used as paperweights. If we make them look nice they should sell well...
Sale price: $? I guess it differs depending on the size and design.

6. Metal flower candles – cans, candles, spray paint
We still need cans, so please contribute!
Sale price: $1.50 per candle

7. Photo frames – ice-cream sticks and saga seeds
WE NEED MORE PEOPLE TO HELP MAKE THE PHOTO FRAMES.
If you are free on any day juz stay back for a while to help out.
Every day we will be doing them so PLS HELP.
Sale price: $3.50 - issit too ex? O.o

8. Key chains - ice-cream sticks and key rings
Holes will be drilled into the ice-cream sticks, and a key ring slotted through them. Xiaoyun suggested we write jokes on them. I think maybe motivational/catchy/ lame quotes too, or they can simply write whatever stuff they want. (OR SONGS LYRICS!!) Our products are mostly personalized, so they can be special for every customer :)

Games:
1. Bull’s Eye – balloons, streamers, sweets.
Sale price: $0.50 per game.
We’ve done the board, so we only need to get the balloons done.
How to play: The customers will throw the balloons (which are heavy cuz there are sweets in them) onto the board. They get to keep the balloons and the sweets after the game according to the points they score – the higher their points, the more candy they get or something like that.

2. Catch a Cupful – requires M & M’s, a few plastic bottles, box, plastic cups.
Sale price: $0.50 per game. (So cheap?!?!)
How to play: The people tending to this game will drop M & M’s into the various tubes (plastic bottles), and the customers have to catch them in plastic cups. They are given ____ seconds. In order to prevent wastage of M & M’s that aren’t caught, there will be plastic cups at the bottom of each tube.
The players will then get to bring home whatever they catch. :)

Most materials should be ready by next session, so we could probably start the production of certain items then.
Marketing Team, you can come up with designs for posters and also other creative advertising techniques over the weekend. Sales Team can think of how they can persuade customers to buy the products?
EVERYONE MUST COOPERATE AND CONTRIBUTE TO ACP.
I know some of you think this ACP thing is very boh liao, but then still mah.
We dun wanna lose face to other classes and the rest of the school.

We're doing fine - we just have to take note not to waste time, and there is no need for comparisons with other classes, for we are challenging no one but ourselves! ;-)


xoxo,
Guess who? (no hints muaha.)

ATTENTION EVERYONE (impt!!)
Okay for the interclass karaoke song, we have chosen...
BEAT IT by MJ!!
Wheee~~

We have decided on some of the dance moves, which are mostly comical actions.
LOL.
Cos we know that we can't really imitate most of the Michael Jackson moves.
Anyway someone can try to do the moonwalk and the crotch-grabbing (like Rachel?)
Christina and Rachel should be the main singers I think.
And the actions will be shown to you maybe next Monday, cos it will be a surprise!! :D

So everyone, better go memorise the song lyrics, even the non-singers.
Cos you all will have to cheer and sing along while the singers perform.
Everyone of us must be enthu okay!!
Then only will we have a chance of winning.
I dont want ppl to say that they don't know the lyrics or tune or watever.

So kind me has put up the lyrics for you!! (:

HIP HIP HOORAY!Net Carn was totally AWESOME right!
we are the champions!
Hehheh!:D Good job everyone!! Let's do better next year and clinch first in all the events okay! xD
Anyway, I went to see all the songs that are available for the Inter-Class Karaoke.
OMG YOU KNOW, I CAN'T RECOGNISE MANY OF THE SONGS...
Those song available are old, old as in really old.
Thus, I suggest that we choose MJ songs! XD
Like Billie Jean, Heal the World, Beat It, Bad etc. Best to choose something that is high and increases interaction with the audience XD Haha! Someone can do the crotch-grabbing + howling :P
Teehee!!

Rachel!:D

Hey everyone!! This is the 101th post of this blog!! WHOOTS!! lol haha.

Ok anyway, Xiao Yun, Navitha and I were at Daiso in Plaza Singapura, and we saw some candle thinggy that we thought could be used for the ACP candle holder thinggy. You know, the tin cans that we got from the recycling bin?? (:

We haven't bought them, juz took some pictures to see whether the rest of the class likes them. If yes, then maybe some kind onion will go down to Plaza Sing again to buy them.

THE PICS: *drumrollllls*

Taadaaaa~~~!!

















Yeap its 8 star-shaped candles per box and its quite cheap (:

Another pic:
















The same thing juz in a diff colour (:

LAST PIC:

















For me i prefer the rose-shaped ones compared to star-shaped ones. More attractive (:
But then they're more expensive.
Perhaps we can buy 1 box of rose candles and 2 boxes of star candles?

Anyway we can discuss it as a class on Thursday, but we've got to hurry.
SENSE OF URGENCY haha.
JYJYs for tomorrow's netball carn, we must win hor!!
