What is Famine 30?

I decided to look it up because I'll sound unprofessional if I just answer "neh you go there fast 30 hours together with your friends then go countdown lo then eat together".

OK so according to the World Vision Malaysia website, The 30-Hour Famine is a global youth movement against hunger and poverty. Participants will learn about the real-world issues of hunger and injustice as they fast and raise funds to tackle the root causes of poverty.

This was my 2nd year taking part in this event.  I went to the DIY camp at MMU last year and this year, all of us decided to join the camp at Taylor's University.

They separated us into 20groups by our names. It was sad when I know many of them got into the same group but I'm all alone.. And then I spot kahfai's name! But he couldn't make it... But Pughal took over his place soooo yea it wasn't that bad after all.

Opening ceremony of the event-

Then, we proceeded to some ice breaking games.

After some rest, we continued with another game. In this game, we need to find our new group members which consists of 6 people: grandpa, grandma, dad, mum & 2kids. The name of my ''tribe" was 纳希9. Surprisingly, I was in the same group together with Yue Lynn, Sue Wen and Sue Ning!!! I was soooooo relieved because I don't have to go through those awkward-knowing-new-group-members thingy. The grandparents of our family are Sin Ling & Jonathan.

In the first station, we are required to build a house and the family who builds the best house will be awarded some cash (game cash). 

In the second station, we need to grab some materials which were hung up high. Tbh I think we did a great job lifting Sue Ning up hahahahaha.

Later on, we were required to jump, collect water and finally the last station, the children had to split with the adults. The adults will be working in the "mine" collecting staples and stuff and prevent themselves from getting "shot" by newspaper balls whereas the kids had to go 2 floors up, frog jump/ duck walk and then write "全力以赴，踢走饥饿" & "Kick Out Hunger" with paint. I was the kid so I had to do the duck walk and OUCH MY MUSCLES HURT SO MUCH I SUFFERED MUSCLE ACHE FOR THE WHOLE WEEK D:

 We were one of the fastest group to finish our tasks hehe and we got more rest time compared to others! Later on, we went back to our original groups and had another game session. There were 20 stations and we had to play as much games as possible to collect the "info card" which will help us in the following Q&A session.

w/ the group 20 peeps

Not sure if it was after the q&a or earlier or what but yea the group photo!

At night, a mini concert was held. There were dance groups, local singers etc. While waiting for Wee (one of the invited singers), a mini karaokae session was held. Our gang very syok-sendirily went up the stage and sang Let Her Go & 那些年 ahaha. (No photos were taken :< ) 

And then Wee came. His voice is just... urgh so good it gave me goosebumps. The machine(?) remix thingy he did was really really cool. Woei Yan's sis got chosen up to accompany him in his performance lmao it was really awkwardddddddd

The next day, everyone was awake an hour before the morning call like wtf I want more sleep urgh. We did the sinchan dance as morning exercise. And after that, we went for some outdoor shooting lololol. coughs the kinda fail heart shape coughs

Afterwards, we divided ourselves into groups of 14 and we had a problem here because there're 22 of us :/ However, we settled the problem and we had to play games to "earn" materials for the next session, fashion show. 

bts before going on stage-

Our group did charsiewpau HAHAHA it was pretty lame though lolllll. 

And the other half gang sang and dressed lanlangor as ladygaga.

Around 2-3pm, we sat down and watched the live stream from the stadium because the stadium couldn't fit every single participants and Taylor's didn't make reservations earlier. We countdown-ed together and ate our breads together wheee we made it!

Later on, we went to Hometown steamboat at Bandar Puteri for dinner.

Hope we'll all participate in Famine 30 again next year. Let's make this an annual event! :D

Oh and the videographer of the event did this video! Do check it out!

There were some performances and both of us quickly ran down to buy some bread cause we'll be having a late dinner for sure.

And then we came back, stood at a good place and started waiting. Oh god it was so hot even inside the mall.

So there was this Korea Royal Hanbok Fashion Show.

Around 5:30pm, this pair of twins came out to sing play the Kayarang (a korean traditional instrument).

Both of them are really CUTE & LOVELY my goodness.

They even sang our national anthem tgt with the kayarang hahahahaha. 

So if you wanna meet them they'll be having their last performance at 1pm tomorrow!

And then I forgotten which emcee came out to entertain us from 6-7pm. He gave out ties and masks and even 짜장면 (jajangmyeon, a type of chinese noodle 炸酱面 originated from China actually, but there's a difference between that 2 uhm which idk what).

OK so around 7pm, there were people screaming from backstage. And all of us knew. MBLAQ CAME INTO THE VENUE.

And he did those you know, pre-concert-cheering-thingy-so-that-oppa-can-feel-your-love.

AND THEY CAME IN SOBS I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES

They started off with Be A Man, their latest single released in March and then it was followed by Mona Lisa. CRIES SO MUCH FEELS MONALISA WAS THE SONG THAT MADE ME KNEW MBLAQ 3 YEARS AGO!!!! ;___;
