X'mas Party in Office

On 24th Dec 07, my company organised an X'mas party with a small token of $3 from the participant. I am not sure if it the $3 is the culprit or otherwise, Not many people registered for it when we last counted on 21st Dec 07. On the actual day, almost a 100 of people join in, so it is not so bad though..

As i am the game organiser, i need to be at the venue earlier to make sure everything goes well. There is a delay in starting off the party as the food didnt arrive at the stipulated time. To keep everyone awake, i started one game know as Folding Newspaper.

It is a simple game. Each team comprises two members and all they need to do is to keep their body on the surface area of the newspaper. The surface area will get smaller as the newspaper are being folded into halves each round. The only team remains will be the winner. As the newspaper become smaller, there is no way it can be folded and a tie break is being down and a team of woman won the game.
After this game, lunch begins. I didnt eat much as i didnt feel like eating. After 30 minutes, we did a gift exchange for the first 20 people. Then, the second game started.

It is obstacle game and the team have to go through 3 sets of obstacle. First obstacle is to find the chocolates hidden inside a basin full of other items like straws, flour, pebbles and small items. Next obstacle is passing of rubber bands through the use of straws. All team members will line up in straight line holding the straws with their mouth and pass the rubber bands through the straws. All 10 rubbers must go through the process and into the container place next to the bench. Last obstacle is to eat up the pocky sticks hanging on a string. First team to complete the three obstacles wins.

Before we start the game, one of the guy of a team was not spontaneous enough to play as there is flour involved. There was delay for a while cos i need to a replacement for him. Dont understand why he is such a big size guy, so worried about the flour which can be dust off easily.

I was really disappointed and a few of my friends thought i am going to drop my tears.. LOL.. Nevertheless, the game still proceed and they have a great fun. As time is running short, we couldnt play more games and we proceed to lucky and gift exchange.

Here are some of the photos of the event.
