Carnival 150 took place today between 11 am and 2pm. Several booths were set up, each supporting different causes. There was an anti-fur booth, a charity booth, a delight of India booth, a booth called d’ear earrings, an African booth selling accessories brought all the way from Tanzania and several other booths.
One particular booth caught my attention. Maybe because of the location or maybe not. The booth was called ‘Lefty Booth’. As the name suggests, the booth was dedicated to lefties. Items sold were items convenient to the lefties, like lefty scissors and lefty ruler.
The lefty booth
One of the team members, Elizabeth, knows a person who owns a store selling lefty items, which is the only lefty store in Malaysia. Therefore, she came up with the idea to create this booth. Besides, she and her team members wanted to create awareness to the people out there that lefties did exist and that they were equally important as the righties. Nevertheless, none of the members were a lefty.

Lastly, here is quote from the lefty T-shirt, “If the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body…then only left- handed people are in their right minds!”
