me, fish and rashie went to creativity and innovation skills workshop at the octagon centre that was held by PwC tadi. i was really excited prior to attending it....i had high expectations that it was going as awesome as the other workshops that were held by BT or Accenture. skalinya...kwang kwang kwang. it was....mediocre. no...it wasnt even that..it basically SUCKED.

the ladies presenting kept saying "um..em..um" like they couldn't find anything much to say...and they can't even elaborate on the interesting facts on the left/right brain! gah! i felt like shaking the chick and saying "ELABORATE!! GIVE US DETAILSSSS!!!"

the only fun part about the whole thing was that the group we chicks were with were cool. us 3 were in the same table with these 3 other chicks. and we all totally clicked.

anyways..one of the exercises that we had to do was brainstorm on this topic we were given. it was called "outrageous opposites". ok...for example. let's say your task was to create a new pizza. now the normal thing that you would suggest issss....new toppings rite? or a new flavour? simple enough rite? well for this task...you suggest a total opposite. something totally unheard of. something unconventional.

fun eh?

our group was given "summer social event". woohoo! siuk. lotsa ideas were flowing through us tarus. after much brainstorming...several laughs and silly ideas. we girls came up withhhh.....

our social summer event will be held INDOORS...and we would have an "ice theme". So all the decorations would have frost or something "icy". We would have a HuUUuuuugeeee heated pool, with icebergs floating around (plastic fake ones ofcourse). and we would have waiters serving the guest around in a penguin suit (to keep up with the whole ice theme). In conjunction with our ice-antarctic theme...our menu would be seafood. and and andd...we would also cater to our vegetarian guests...so we would have fish flavoured tofu. and did i mention that we are going to have fish-shaped cakes as well? (how awesome are we?). and for those guests who wants to stay in the pool and be served as well... we also have waiters in their swimsuits..serving them in the water!

since it's such a HUGE pool..one side of the pool will be completely iced over. where ppl can ice skate. so there are ice skates for hire. on the other corner of our HUGE indoor place...we would have ski slopes...skis are again, available for hire. and to keep up with the whole ice theme...we would put a snow making machine over the ski slopes..so everyone can have a feel for the whole skiing experience.

for entertainment...we organized synchronized swimming in the heated pool....some dancing with the ice skates on the ice...and also polka dance (a russian dance according to the russian girl in our group).

Later on in the evening...there will be some disco dancing on the ice.

And on the other farrr corner...we would set up a huge bonfire...so ppl can sit around it....have some mulled wine....marshmallows will also be provided if anyone feels like roasting some.

Guests who also feel like keeping themselves warm can also go in the makeshift igloo. Inside the igloo will be a bar and ppl can hang out in their and have some drinks.

SIUK KAN?? how cool was our idea?! hahaha.

ok...im going to go and watch wedding date now :P
