Famine 30, 2013

Everyone ask me why did I took part in this event?
I went to get hungry for 30 hours without food but plain water only.
Why?
I just smile and answer: 'I wanna lose some weight.'

On the very early morning, with bunch of batchmates, we 'bertolak' to Kledang la.
Firstly, we have our 'LAST' breakfast.
After that, we register ourselves at the primary school for the start of the event.
This marked the start of the 30 hours hunger game!

From self-introducing activities to team activities, we enjoyed it.
Self-Introduction
Picture tells story
Video sharing
Family games (with faked OKU family members)
Station games
Water games (to experience how people lives in drought bring waters back home)

And the night we slept in the hall with the not enough sleeping back.
The next morning, we reached KL for the Famine 30 Charity concert.
 Over the hall, there are approximately 18,000 attendees.
All of us full with fight hunger spirit.
 When the performer ask us to show our handphone light, the hall is filled with stars.

Not to forget, the VIP aka 饥饿爱心大使,范范 came far from Taiwan.
 林宇中, shaking hand with fans.

After the concert end, we finally get some light food.
A bun and box of soya drink.
Then we are back to UTP, but we do like some ice-cream at Mcd first. LOL
Everyone are appreciating the Sundae cone for the first time in our life, just because we know we are lucky enough to afford for the ice-cream.

You must be wondering, 'Are you really not feeling hungry?'
Of course not!
With this small hunger, what are we compared to those African kids? 
They had been living in hunger for the whole life time.

Therefore, the objectives of this event is to create the awareness of public upon some unlucky people in the world who really need what we thought cheap stuffs in our normal life.
Maybe, we shall took part in the next year too.
Maybe.
