Valentine’s Day 2007

Here’s our stall at Waterfront opposite of Hilton. The cosplayers helped to sell the roses and the plushies. Business wasn’t good. Too many people selling and the flowers were all in bad shape 🙁 because we got the wrong flowers. Most of the bouquets dried up due to the wrong type of flowers used. They were so fresh and pretty on the 13th.

Other stalls at Waterfront.

Left: Another stall at Waterfront bus stop.
Right: Our cosplayers at Padungan. Tried to sell all the roses. They only managed to sell two there.

Then later at night after they went home, we reduced the price to RM5 and most of our buyers were our own friends(-.-“). Then we tried to cleared it by giving it out free when people buy a soft toy but no one bought any soft toys. 2 stalks left and one was sold at RM3/stalk. The last stalk wasn’t sold. 9 stalks were damaged 🙁 because of the stupid small purple flowers that were wrapped together with the roses. They sucked up all the water of the roses. We suffered a loss lucky not much and good thing we didn’t take too many flowers.

I noticed that this year, not many people want to buy flowers as gift. They prefer things that are more practical. Me too. I’m happy if you give me flower but I’m happier if you give me CASH 😛 or give me something practical. Do you know that the flowers cost a bomb and using that money, you can do better things with it? Too commercialised. I don’t care a damn about Valentine’s Day, there is no need to do all these things. You’ll get stuck in jam, eat overpriced dinners, buy overpriced gifts etc. Don’t see any point for it. Just stay at home and enjoy each other company is better. As long that you have the heart, any day can be Valentine’s Day.

Kenny Sia spotted with his girlfriend, Samantha. 😛 Such a big bouquet she got. So sweet~~
