Friday Faze: Let's Get Personal!

After a looong hiatus, Friday Faze was revived by its two crazy organisers.

The last FF of its kind -- FF5: Mission Up Close and Personal -- was designed to introduce the newbies and allow everyone to get to know one another a teeny bit better. That turned out to be a bonafide hit, so the idea was to recreate the experience as 90% of people from the last FF had already left...

Behind the scenes...

Hurdle 1:
Like the last one, a (new) list of survey questions was sent to everyone. As usual, it wasn't easy to get everyone to tear themselves away from their pressing work and fill in the 'frivolous' survey, save for some co-operative and kind souls. But in the end, almost everyone sent in their replies.

Hurdle 2:
Food for the event was provided by the canteen upstairs for convenience. Plus at $3 per person, there weren't a lot of other options! There was also a limited budget of $15 for prizes! :O



D-Day



The early-birds:

Girl talk

The three musketeers

The crowd munching on the surprisingly decent fare (samosas, sandwiches, tea, coffee) from the canteen while waiting for the others:

Munch munch

Yakety yak

More munching

Finally, it begins...

Part 1: Who's Who?

The co-host at work

The anticipating crowd

Task: Everyone had to introduce themselves and name four of their immediate cubicle neighbours*, or suffer a forfeit!

* Some people had pillars for 'neighbours' so it couldn't be helped :P

XW's turn

Amused

*Unfortunately, the two hosts were so caught up in the event that they completely forgot to take photos after Part 1! :O*


Part 2: MCIS's Believe It or Not!



Information gathered from the survey revealed some interesting trivia like these:






Votes were also tallied for the coolest guy and gal, and the most admired person.




Part 3: The Quiz Show



Everyone was divided into 5 groups to guess the correct answers to the tricky questions. Here're some of the most intriguing ones:
