#WAMAZINGRACE 
We were hosted to an amazing fun time by Wisma Atria and Word of Mouth (WOM) and it was awesome fun. we gathered in the early morning and the 4 teams inclusive of ours had to compete to finish the tasks ASAP. Unfortunately we didn't manage to clinch first place but congrats to the grand winner! ( First prize winners get to go on to the grand finals! So cool). 
 In fact all of us were winners and were gifted shopping vouchers from Wisma! 

Speaking of which I was paired up with Virginia and everything was pretty much in a frenzy because we had to do the tasks while taking photos or videos but it was a very good exercise cum fun time to spend a Saturday morning! 

Before the race, all raring to go!


Here's an intro to the stations we went to and the brands who hosted us!
But First, Morning Breakfast
Entering into the mall from the main entrance from the train station, Joe & the Juice would have striked out for it's modernised, relaxing vibe in black and pink hues.
Joe & the Juice made its debut at Wisma Atria in August. Serving an array of organic coffee, freshly made fruit and vegetable juices and rye bread sandwiches. This contemporary Danish cafe offers a funky and healthy-packed experience to shoppers grabbing a breakfast bite or a lunch-to-go.

They really did feed us VERY well with the delish fruit juices and sandwiches. Tunacado, Turkey sandwiches were toasted to crisp and healthily flavorful too.
Big Love for a yummy headstart!


Race Starts!
1st stop: Qoosh Nail Spa
Our first stop saw us dashing up to Qoosh Nail Spa on level 3 and having our nails painted for each other on one hand. It was like dashing painting of the nails. And we had to record a video! 
Sorry no photos taken. 

2nd Stop: FitFlop
 We then sped to FitFlop at level 1. Guess you don't need much introduction. FitFlop carries ergonomic sandals, shoes and boots with world-class design, fashion sense and a innovating mix of beauty, brains and top-notch biomechanics.
In this station, we had to find the matching pair of sandals as was shown and tried it on with our suitable size before snapping photos! 



3rd stop: Joe & the Juice
We dashed back to Joe & the Juice and had to finish one big tall fruit juice and a small cup of lime plus one HUGE sandwich - which I was already too full by then. Because Virginia was sick and couldn't eat much so I  bravely took up the task of stuffing chewing.

See me below with my mouth full =DD

4th Stop: Xpressflower.com
A beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers can brighten up anyone’s day or a special occasion, such as a birthday or an anniversary. For the first time, Wisma Atria is delighted to welcome a home-grown floral shop, Xpressflower.com, into the mall at Level 1.

We really did brighten up our own day by making a bouquet according to the picture shown to us.

5th stop: Mido Optics
Located at Level 1, if you need to prescribe a stylish pair of spectacles or sunglasses then let Mido Optics do the magic for you.
Similarly, we had to find matching sunglasses from the range and took photos with them.
We look so cool no? =PP

Finally we completed the quests and came in 3rd~~ Hoo hoo... hahaha but it's the experience that counts
After the race~ ALL DONE and in glee.
