1T05 CLASS PARTEHHHHHH BABY!
The following was copied/pasted from Sonia's blog:hey guys,
thanks for taking time out of your busy schedules to read this.
anyway, we need to settle certain issues for the long-awaited christmas party in order for it to be a blast and not some messy last minute arrangement.
main issues:
1. Theme
Okay, submission of desired themes for the party are to be in by 25th Nov after which i'll be putting all submissions onto a poll and put it up for all to vote. PLEASE VOTE GUYS, cos everything revolves around the theme (such as what YOU will be wearing, decor [maybe?] and even the food and music)The date whereby i'll be announcing the results of the poll (i think you'll be able to keep track of it by looking at it right? hmm...) is 30th Nov. So if you dont vote by then, THATS YOUR LOSS. not trying to be mean but you know, if i dont set a deadline for everything, we wont get anything done. i think you guys should know that by now.
2. Food
There are two choices, BBQ or Potluck.
However, i think kerri (our venue provider) would very much prefer a potluck to avoid a mess. but the problem that persists right now, is the warmth of the food. im afraid the stuff may turn soggy/cold. Please also submit suggestions on the type of food you wish to eat at the party/can provide. Moreover, i think its very important that everyone helps to clean up after the party and not just dump it to the people who leave last/kerri herself. Hence if people are gonna have to leave early, we are gonna have to end the party early so as to make it fair and make everyone do his/her part of the cleaning up. Please also give me dessert suggestions okay?
3. Drinks
I need suggestions guys. Cos i dont want the party to revolve around ONLY a few people's likings. so i need a rough gauge on the different types of drinks we are gonna have. I've already asked MEL (who is leaving for bangkok today) to help get 2-3 bottles of VODKA RASPBERRY from the airport(if you guys dont want it then nvm ill buy them all from her) for the party (cheaper deals!)
4. Decor
As for this issue, im not too sure if we still should have this. I need to know what the budget is gonna be like for everyone as well. Cos everyone will be sharing the burden of the budget EQUALLY! so again, YOU gotta give your opinions or we wont know.
5. Games/Activities
We need to have stuff to do right? So GIVE ME YOUR SUGGESTIONS PLEASE! either that, or if someone could offer to help to plan this part it would be a heck load off me man! any takers?? thankyouverymuch.
6. Exchange of presents
Every christmas party needs the presence of presents! so basically, ive come up with a plan since we cant possibly have everyone meeting up just to draw lots can we? Hence, ive drawn up a number plan with everyone's names. This "game" will be played on a first come first serve basis and highly confidential. i'll give you a range of numbers you can choose from and from there, you pick one. Whomever's name has been put next to that number will be the person whom you are getting the gift for. To make it fair, i'll take the last number left standing. also, ill note down who is getting a gift for who so as to ensure that everyone gets gifts. lets play fair okay? By the way, there'll be a budget for the presents since we're all not that rich. each present is to be between the range of $8 to $15 bucks okay? no more no less. Please also try NOT to tell anyone whom youre buying for in order not to spoil the fun. as we already know, word spreads fast. dont spoil it for anyone. (okay, mine will be spoilt though.. ): )
7. Music
Yongyan has gladly volunteered his services hence everyone is to submit the songs yuo guys wanna hear at the party to him and he'll dl and burn them. Submission is due on 10th Dec. So again, if you dont submit what you wanna hear, chances are, you'll be listening to music you cant stand. then ill be laughing at you.
8. Invites
Basically, Ivan will be in charge of piecing together an invite via photoshop and will be sending it virtually to everyone in 1T05. lets invite miss lee okay? so ill get him to email one to miss lee and ill msg her again to confirm if she's coming. if she is, ill add her to the list of 'exchange of presents'
9. Budget
As we'll be sharing everything, i need a rough gauge on budget. Hence pls tell me how much youre willing to fork out for this party and ill get an average okay? cos lets jus say, if everyone forks out $5 we'll only have $90 as budget (only to cover the food maybe? cant cover much)
10. Time Arrangements
Tell me what time you guys can make it until. like lets say 6pm-10pm? then cleaning up from 10pm-11pm? TELL ME GUYS!!!
so sorry this is so long.. hehh.. arts student what. oh wait. im no longer one. ):
