Advertorial : Ephyra Treasure Hunt 2014

http://oceanlife2u.com/ 

This is My first actual advertorial. Pardon me (please comment) if there's any mistake whatsoever.  Here's to many more Advert to come? Insya Allah..

This time my entry would be about Ephyra product and an event that happening last Saturday :



Where : Putrajaya - KLIA2 - Putrajaya
When : 24th May 2014 (Saturday)
Who : Team of Bloggers (4 each team, 7 teams total)

Event sponsored by Oceanlife2U and organized by Team DenaiHati yang ohsem. Kena mention ohsem sbb mmg enjoy event yg diaorg telah jalankan ni.

Meeting point was @ PuspanitaPuri Car Park around 9 am. Once there, everyone need to do their own InstaVideo, showing you preparing and enjoying the Ephyra drink. i was lucky to have Nuar on my team, as he knows how to edit the video for Instagram and more importantly, how to edit the InstaVideo. Ohsem jugak utk ko sbb jadi team mate yg terer!

Here's my InstaVideo :


just a tip - you need to have team mates that's active on social media to take part in this kind of game.


My personal opinion about the product? : Well i like to see the result first. After a sachet, i took one kuih and thats all. I didnt eat anything yet that morning. Will share with you later in this post.

Two other team mates, blogger Dikna and Kak Dyana. < Havoc!! even though we have never met each other before.

Briefing was given by Team Denaihati, and followed by details given by the founder herself, Puan Amiza. She even gave out our team names, and ours was Acai Beri! Groups given names according to 9 Ephyra's ingredients.

Pn Amiza Amiruddin


Wefie!! *istilah social media je utk event ari ni*

Flag off around 10.45 am, first clue was : Taman Botani.


i like the 2nd last Question.

We were given a number of questions which answer can be found easily around the park. 


Ok semua tunjuk gigi anda..!! *background kereta yg lalu
lalang hon kat kitaorg*











Once done, we need to take a Wefie by the roadside (with Ephyra billboard at the background) right before the Bangi Exit and then drive straight to KLIA2 for our next set of task.

Upon arriving, we were impressed by the modern look of the airport, and how hard to find a parking space.. hehe.. but compared to old LCCT, this facility is much, much better.

We need to find the Starbucks cafe and get our tasks there.

1st task (InstaVideo + Questions)
Questions part was easy. The InstaVideo was not so. Imagine we had to find a Guy in Blue shirt, get him to be featured in our video while one of us promoting what Ephyra is to him. Ha!! Bagi kat i mmg asyik CUT! je lah jawabnyer. Nebes!!

once done, uploading it was another thing. The internet prolly so congested inside the building, we need to find some place else to do it. And theres one nice corner far end of the building where it got better reception and of course - good internet connection. Now that already time wasted.

and there's interval time : 10 minutes once each task submitted.. so layan Starbucks dulu la..
once the 10 minutes is up, its time to continue. 

2nd task : Find a foreigner and take a picture with him.

3rd task : Do a Wefie at the KLIA2 wording

4th Task (InstaVideo)
Find a Lady in Turquoise dress/shirt and do the same thing. Explain what is Ephyra in 15 sec vid.

5th task (instaVideo)
do a group cheer in front of 3 tourist

Missed the task where we need to find something 'spicy'.. :(


 
berWefie kat KLIA2

once done, around 2.30 pm, its time for lunch.

we headed for Petronas Station (right after the airport exit) and have a Nasi Ayam while solving another set of question. Googable punyer riddle la.. jawab santai2 jer..

Ok here is how i feel after hours of driving and running and walking around @ KLIA2. I still feel energetic and not that hungry though (although its already 3pm) and prolly this Ephyra product is good for dieting. I havent tried the one that i got (yet) but i will share in another post what happened after 10 sackets (10 days) :).. im thinking if it is a good supplement, prolly i can use it to help me with my preparation for my Full Marathon this coming October..

once submitted the question, we were given another clue saying we need to get back to Putrajaya, take a shuttle to the Ephyra Booth @ Jom Heboh Carnival.

Once we reached PICC, there's no parking available so we headed straight for the Jom Heboh instead. 



a'ah.. menapak dari jambatan ni sampai la ke tapak jualan Ephyra. Yup. Gigih.


Sambil2 posing dalam kepenatan

We were the 5th team to arrive @ Jom Heboh site and at the Ephyra booth for the final task(s). Turns out the last task is the Blind Soccer! According to their product Ambassador, Norman Hakim, the game chosen because of the World Cup Fever, and to promote active lifestyle of those using Ephyra. Sihat, Cantik, Bertenaga.. so this one suits the theme.
Happening!

Its a sudden death match but our team manage to score a goal for a bonus point. Once done, we need to present the group cheer that we InstaVideo earlier, then only we completed the Hunt.


Biasalah team captain akan rebut2 nak
pegang mock card hadiah tu.. haha..
The result was announced about half an hour later, and we did win! 2nd place. Nebes sbb ada 3 other groups that start with A :P

Event ends around 7 pm.

The event prolly the best idea to promote such product, as it not only represent beauty, but also for health and energy.

Back to Back : Jejak Pelancongan Putrajaya n Rentap Extreme Explorace 2014

Where : Putrajaya
Time : 5.30am - 2.00 pm (for Jejak Pelancongan Putrajaya)
3.00 pm - 4.00 pm (for Rentap Extreme Explorace @ Tapak Fiesta Riuh Sakan 2014)
Achievement (chewahh..) .. eh jap.. kena baca dulu story baru tau.. hehe..
When : Saturday, 26th April
Team : Fakri, Ellah, Lek, Myself 
Syuk join the 2nd event. 
5.00 am - Dah siap bangun, initial plan was to park our car depan Perbadanan Putrajaya around 5.30am. Tertidur balik, woke up @ 5.30am. Sudahnya sampai kat blockade tu around 5.45am. Still among the earliest. 2nd car in the line. Learnt our lesson @ the previous hunt (a week before) @ Melaka. That story have to wait. We flunked that one.. hehe..

thats what ppl call GIGIH.. 

Breakfast @ 7am, and final brieifing @ 8 am.(note : sedap dia punya Bihun Goreng, which i ate for lunch) :P

So, flag off around 8.30am. and we have till 3.00 pm to finish everything.

 the driver i shall be today

7 locations. Questions vary (based on Sports/World Cup) but not that easily googalable okeh. Treasure hunt element is still there. Especially for the first location @ Presint 14 / Diplomatic. Yup, this year format is totally different from last year. I hope they will revert to the 2013 format next year. (of courselah Treasure hunters x minat sangat format camni, kitaorg adventure racer lah at advantage nyer).

1st Location : Presint 14/Diplomatic
Mmg payah soklannyer.. ie.. Lin Dan kehilangan Ann.. ok .. cuba teka apa jawapannyer?




p/s : gambar xde kena mengena dengan jawapan

Boleh jawab dlm comment. Kalu betul dpt hadiah.. hehe.. Ops, sape masuk ari tu takleh aa jawab..

Kalu nak soklan lain pun boleh. nanti saya share. We hate this part. But we love the challenge.

Abiskan sejam kat sini, left with 3 Qs unanswered. yg berjawap pun mungkin 50% je betul.. Back to the control point @ Perbadanan to get the passport for 2nd part.

Location 2 : Taman Cabaran P20
Not like last year la. Nothing extreme. just to test how sharp is your observation skill, while trying to cope with other team member that eagerly want to help (which makes thing more chaotic) haha.. gaduh2 manja.. + stress kan sape yg pegang pen masa tu..

Location 3 : Taman Saujana Hijau P11
Here, we need to answer a crossword puzzle. senang sangat. jawapan ada da.. so pilih jawapan yang betul. tak mencabar pun.
 

aha.. why they put a bunting such as this as a checkpoint marker? 

Location 4 : Taman Wetland @ Padang Semarak
Yang ni pun jawab soklan. Mencabarnya sbb dah panas terik. Rentung la sambil2 cari jawapannya. 20 minutes gak nak siapkan.

 rentung. dah tengah hari dah time nih. quizzes

aha.. dan saya lupa nak snap bunting yg ada kat tepi tu.. *dush*!
at this point, no one actually know that the bunting is actually part of the game!

Once done, back to the control point to get the question for the 3rd part. 


 3rd part ni senang. diaorg letak mcm logo pasukan bola. then jawab soklan based on the logo. senang jugak sbb team 2 tau banyak pasal bola. bagus gak budak2 ni. 


 Aha.. punya laju lupa amik gambar :P 

Easy peasy. Then proceed with 2nd passport for 3 more locations :


Location 5 : PICC (Hall 1 n 2)
kat sini mmg tricky sket. Dengar bunyi, tulis huruf yg mewakili bunyi tu. So jawapan berdasarkan susunan bunyi. Tak senang sbb dia ada dua set. Satu utk huruf2 apa yang bunyi tu wakili, and right next to it (yup, mmg bercampur2 bunyinya) susunan bunyi yg perlu kita susun jadi jawapannya.. (sport based juga).

Contoh la.. X - utk angsa, N -utk bunyi enjin kete I - bunyi siren polis, S - bunyi lembu.
so susunan dia.. X-N-I-S.. ape tuh? 

logiknya.. X (roman number) so dia jadi Ten + N+I+S = Tennis! wei!! tak reti ah! haha.. 
(jawapan tau lepas da abis game)  

Nak jugak berselfie. ok syok sendiri..

W for *sound) Moo = Cow

listing out all the alphabets that represent the sound

time to relax a bit.. or merajuk.. or layan perasaan.. haha..

 Ops dont forget the bunting..

Location 6 : Taman Pancarona P18
Ok sampai sini mcm ada mini stadium. So ada jumble words questions. Isikan jawapan yang betul. haha.. biasa2 je. kejap je dapat ni. Camne? ade 8 kepala (2 team) so mmg cepat lah siap. Sport based remember? kalu general mmg die la.. 


 guess who is this? hint : Olahragawan



Location 7 : Pusat Futsal 1Malaysia, P18 @ Youthport
kat sini test korang punye memory. Marshall kat masuk, then keluar, tak leh masuk balik. Tp sebab ramai sgt org, saya tengok ramai jer yg mengelat. Tp tak susah sangat. dari gambar dia bg tu, teka mana salah. Senang.



Once done, back to the Contol point for the bonus task/questions.
So balik ke control point utk submit passport. 

Turn out that my habit sometimes tu bagus juga. all those buntings are the clue for this last part. Its the answer to the bonus question! Walla! settle our hunt around 2.oopm..

Prize giving some time around 5pm. The result for the hunt you need to wait. 

Oh yer.. kalu treasure hunt sure lah ada 'treasure' nak kena beli.. contoh mcm ni :

3-3  soklan ke laut! actually i did get this one right. yes. the answer is sehelai daun!
and i thought green tea.. haha.. need to do better on this


Ok. lets go to the 2nd event of the day.

Rentap Extreme Explorace @ tapak Fiesta Riuh Sakan, Monument Alaf Baru, Putrajaya. 


Actually, the reason we signing up for this one as its so cheap! RM20 jer satu team! 

But.. to my suprise, we will up against team of Marathon Runners, Iron Man, Adventure Racers. Wahh.. macam xde harapan jer? But giving up that early isnt an option. We have to try our best la then. Kitaorg? buat2 tak tahu jer..



layan dulu..


Budget Goodx2 = alah.. poyo lah nak kena terang jugak.. haha.. 

Once it started, we need to find 10 CPs to get all the stamp. Its not that extreme per se, more like fast! Explorace is all about who finish first, and gets all the stamp. 


also, there's a task you need to write Pantun. Empat kerat. 
kitaorg buat mmg ntah hapa2 lah pantunnyer. janji marshall terima. 


So again, we got a Soduku challenge in one of the task. mmg Challenging as i need to solve it like under 5 minutes or so.


Mmg tetap dan berpencen lah saya kalu ada task ni.. Argh.. but with the right strategy, we manage to cover most of the CP in the fastest time, ahead of other teams. And our team found the CP 7, which was quite hidden from the sight. you need to go up the Monument Alaf Baru for that.
 
see.. its hidden kan?

So we went for the 3rd last CP, CP 9. We need to find pokok cili padi semerah around the Fiesta site. Easy eh? as there's only 2 place selling plants there. But they didnt sell any pokok cili! Argh.. where can this pokok cili be? After running around like mad, the pokok cili were put just behind the Starting point. 


Ok, we came to the 2nd last CP, CP 6. Where the heck is it? to our suprise, its right there next to the last CP.. haha.. mesti baru jap tadi dia letak. 

Kara-tak-ok! Well, suruh kitaorg karaoke mmg tak ok lah. But we were the first time in the queue, so others have to wait. This subjective task kind a test your patience, as the marshall asked us to sing again as he didnt satisfied with our singing..

Done! so we come down to the last CP, CP10. Again, this one a bit subjective. appoint a mascot, and sing or dance your team cheer! Adoi!! but Fakri came up with a nice cheer song, and Ellah was the mascot.. alololo.. x comel tp belasah je la.. 


So we sang :

"Everywhere we go.. people want to know.. who we are..

so we tell them, we are the mighty, mighty Budget Good-Good!"


Ha! takde nyer kena nyanyi sekali.. 2 kali kena ulang.. haha.. and we finished 1st.

wuhuu!

Ok. Lets go back to the 1st event venue and waiting for the prize giving ceremony.. 
we triump! dalam category PBT la.. (Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan). we got 2nd. Our 2nd team got 1st.. haha.. mcm mana tu? tp xpe, hadiah campur 2, bahagi 8.. so fair lah kan? 

and yours truly dpt lucky draw.. yay!!   


Done here. Lari2 anak balik ke Fiesta RiuhSakan site for the 2nd prize giving ceremony. Kesian pulak biar Syuk amik hadiah sorang2.. kot2 lah masuk paper kan.. utk Explorace siap dapat medal. All and all, terubat lah kiciwa kalah kat Melaka. Alhamdulillah. 

flashy medal!
 
 

Last but not least, Congrats on your winning, rival team Kaki Lari n Bisa Habis. Member2 jugak diaorg ni. 

Ehh.. jap jap.. tak abis lagi..cam biasalah nak cite gak part ni..



Ok thats all! Upcoming events? We might be going to JB soon! (8th June). I'll update you on that.

(Contest + Ads) Pengalaman Aku Dan Kereta

Pengalaman Aku dan Kereta ni, nak aku kongsikan kenangan bersama kereta lama, Wira 1.5 (auto) yang kini telah dijual. Bukan kete buatan Malaysia tak best.. takpelah.. baca dulu.. :)

Cerita ni agak emosi sket lah.. for me.. tapi semuanya bergantung pada cara tuan punya jaga/maintain kereta jugak.

Kitaorg dapat bayar deposit kereta ni hasil duit tabungan bekerja. Tak lah banyak, tapi dapat lah bayar deposit lebih sket. So selepas 2 tahun, sbb tergoda dengan tawaran utk pasang set NGV (dan harga minyak yg naik time tu) maka kereta ni pun jadi lah hybrid. So dah lama dah aku guna kete hybrid nih.. :P 


After a long while (7 years ) kereta ni start ada problem. Duit repair toksah cite, credit card guna sampai max. Tp masalah tak selesai. Suspect utama, sbb guna kit NGV. Tp pegi lah forum mana2 pun, ttp diaorg kata guna kit NGV takkan rosakkan enjin kete. Masalahnyer, kete Wira ni, yg versi 2000 ke atas kot (kalu tak silap) dia lain sket. So bertukar2 kedai aku try solvekan masalah dia. Duit dicurahkan macam air.*Sob..Sob*

Pengalamannyer? bukan kat atas tu.. Tu pengalaman pahit. Shahdu aa duit bulan2 abis repair yg tak tahu ape rosak. Pengalaman lagi shahdu, tahun terakhir, dan bulan2 terakhir sblm kitaorg decide nak tukar kete lain..

Tahun2 terakhir aku xcited sebenarnya. Kete dah nak abis bayar kan. Tp ttp masalah tak selesai. Bayangkan boleh pulak rosak aircond tetengah highway, bateri tetiba kong parking kat Jeti Langkawi.. macam2 la. Aku ni bukan lah tuan yg culas, tp  mungkin lah tak berapa mahir soal2 repair kete nih. Antar bengkel, org soh tukar, aku tukar.

Bulan-bulan terakhir? lagi best. Enjin bila panas je baru boleh nak start enjin senang. Nop, bukan pasal alternator atau starter. (chewah, ada gak la aku tahu pasal kete) tp pasal dlm Piston ke, blok dia yg problem. So, kalu nak soh kedai buat, RM7 k. Aku tanya brader yg pomen tu.. "kalu dah repair selesai ke Masalah?" dia jawab apa tau? "Tengok la, kalu ada problem lain, saya tak jamin" aik? ko ni pomen ke aper?

Bila enjin panas je blh start, pepagi mmg lah hampeh. Bayangkan, 2 bulan aku naik turun blok umah ting 16 utk start enjin kete bagi panas jam 11.30 ke 12 tgh malam, then tido, then bangun balik sblm subuh utk kasi panas enjin (dlm kul 5 pagi) so that xde problem nak start gi keje. Hari yg aku malas nak buat? haa.. sengah jam lah dok kat bawah tu try nak start.

Ok pengalaman kelakar? hehe.. ada gak.. dalam stress2 kete camtu.. ada lah sesekali bila start kete tu akan buat bunyi 'POM!'.. tindak balas minyak ngan gas dlm enjin.. so nak jadi cite.. satu pagi aku try start. susah sket sbb malam tak panaskan enjin tu.. Start je amik kau.. "POM!" .. dah le belakang tu bas stop! aku tengok belakang, terkujat orang kat bas stop tu.. haha!! sorry lah bang, kak.. problem kete ni.. Aku bingung! 


Pengalaman tak boleh blah.. eh ada gak yg macam ni? ada.. yg membawa kepada nak tukar ke kereta baru. 

-iklan- aku bukan ape.. sayang oo kete ni sbb da pakai 7 tahun.. dah habis bayar.. tp apakan daya.. - 

ok yg tak boleh blah.. last aku blk kg Wife.. so pepagi tu biasalah. .sesi start kete.. "POM"!! satu kampung kau terkejut! haha.. dengan Pak mertua aku siap keluar.. "Ape ni? ape yg meletup ni?" Aku nak gelak pun ada, nak nanges pun ada.. so aku cite lah kat pak mertua aku.. dia memahami.. tp yg tak paham mekanik sana pun tak pasti apa masalah dia.. dalam hati kata mmg lah problem ni sbb NGV kit nih..  in a long run mmg lah akan effect enjin gak. takde maknanyer nyer jimat..

So, bile otw balik umah kitaorg, wife suggest jom kita try usha2 kete lain. dah teruk sgt kete ni. Aku terima jer, walau aku masih sayang dan harap dpt repair kete ni. Singgah ke showroom Toyota. Usha Vios. Terus berkenan. Terus booking. haha.. tak boleh blah betul. sbb org kat showroom tu kata "x kisah enjin camne, janji u hantar kereta tu, masih ok masa hari serahan utk tukar kereta baru".. bayar duit booking.. done. 


Ehh.. belum lagi.. pengalaman yang tak abis2 lagi.. kete baru dapatnyer sebulan lagi wey!! so kena bertahan la aku turun lewat malam, bangun awal pagi utk panaskan enjin. Malu muka enjin meletop2 tolak tepi.. Ku gigihkan juga dengan doa agar kete ni yg masih dpt bertahan sblm kena jual. 

Alhamdulillah. Urusanku dipermudahkanNya. Kete ni aku takmo modified ke apa. Akan hantar serbis ikut masa. Guna lah kete ape pun, serbis jgn kantoi okeh! Oh yer.. road tax pun kekadang kita lupa kan bila mati? apa kata korang aku suggest something yg membantu hidup korang pas ni?
