TOP 5: BACK TO BACK

'MOST STICKY GAME AWARD'

This game was actually a bit unhygienic in the way that you have to be back to back, arm by arm with a co-player, regardless of you both sweating. You have no time to wipe the sweat, and in fact you’ll be in panic mode just finding a pair because every round you need to pair up with a different person.

Despite that, I think this was one of my most favorite games. It enabled us to get to know more of our classmates, in fact a lot of them. Plus, it’s fun and super exciting. There’s no exaggeration when I said super. It’s like we’re back to being children, only caring about winning, about finding a pair. It doesn’t matter who. Size doesn’t matter. Gender doesn’t matter. If you’re qualified to the standard set for a pair, then you’re good enough.

I experienced being pulled by someone, and next thing I know, we’re back to back. All of us were into the game. There’s no time for being in dreamland.

One good observation I had, we’re all sweaty and sticky. It’s a bit uncomfortable but what choice did we have? We’re in the game and I bet we all wanted to not be ‘it.’

My MVP for this round was Fitz. Well, it’s because of one incident, in which we were supposed to be a pair, but next thing I know, Eube (?) managed to take my place. It was hilarious and embarrassing at the same time because our classmates were laughing at the incident. I was laughing with them actually.  

For the variation, I think it would be nice if it could be done by group. Then, each member from a group would have to pair up with one from another. That way, there will be limited people to pair up with and a bigger possibility of tagging someone to be ‘it.’ Plus, the ‘it’ group can join in the crowd and pretend that they’re from another group. Those who pair up with the wrong people get to receive some sort of punishment to make the game more interesting.
