Flash matching
Feeling bored and alonely? I went to one of the matching parties. 20 guys and 20 gals. You have 3 mins to get the know the guy who sits in front of you and grade him on the marking sheet. After that he goes to the next table and another guy would come to yours. At the end of the game, if both parties give 6/10 or above, both will receive the e-mail address of another person within 24 hrs after the party over e-mail.Pros:
1. Get to know many people (guys) within a short period of time (3 hrs for my party)
2. Avoid the embarassment of people asking for your mobile phone number, which is prohabited during the party.
3. Reasonable price, it comes with drinks and bufffet high-tea.
Cons:
1. Time is too short, no enough time to talk.
2. Loose control of age group, participants ranges from colleague students to aging men.
3. Unbearable 3 mins if you happen to meet someone who refuses to talk.
4. Too dark, can't see!
5. Meeting too many people at one go. Can't remember or match the face to the name after the party. (I don't have a good memory)
Outcome:
Busy replying e-mails...
