The Blindfold is Off!

I did the 40 hour famine on Saturday and Sunday and went without sight. I found it a really big challenge for me because I had nothing to do! I couldn't use my phone or computer or the television. All I had was my iPod which I misplaced at one point. I became an extremely messy eater and probably ended up with more food on the walls and floors than in my mouth. I also had a TOM (Tournament of Minds) meeting on Sunday and had to go to a place I had never been before so that was interesting. I suffered quite a few bruises but it was all worth it. So far, I've raised $110 and I have some other donations on the way.

Halloween isn't far away (okay 2 months away but...) and I'm getting really excited. Halloween is my favourite day of the year. I just love the whole mysterious and magical aspect of October 31st.

One of the things that has been making me continuously laugh over this week are the Old Spice Ads. They're so funny! Here's a link to my favourite one:

End of Live Below the Line

So Live Below the Line ended about 2 weeks ago. I'm reaaally happy to be eating normally again. Every now and then I feel super lucky when I grab a snack from the fridge or have a normal-sized dinner :)
This experience has really opened up my eyes. I always knew that in some places you don't get to eat as much as you like, but feeling hungry all the time for 5 days altered my perspective and I'm glad I did it. I raised $250 all up for education in Cambodia.

I'm going to do the 40 hour famine this weekend, and I'm going to experience being blind for the 40 hours. I think this will be a really interesting experience and I hope it will allow me to appreciate being able to see a little more. If you would like to help me raise money to fight the global food crisis, you can donate to me on this page:

Thanks guys :D

Living Below the Line

Hey there :)
Tomorrow will be the start of a long 5 days where I will live on $2 a day for food. I will be able to return to eating as much as I like on Saturday morning but unfortunately 1.4 billion people around the globe will continue to live on $2 a day for all of their basic needs. I hope my efforts will increase the awareness of poverty in developing countries and raise money to open schools in Cambodia, a country that was severely damaged by war and genocide. Education is an important part to ending extreme poverty.
Thank you soooo much to those kind people who donated, I really appreciate it and I'm sure those who benefit from the money will appreciate it too. If you still want to donate, visit my page: http://www.everydayhero.com.au/sarah_marshall_7
