Hope is restored

This year I attended HKESA singles' night, but rather as a host (as opposed to a participant :3). It was hosted at Kaze lounge and restaurant, which had a pretty good atmosphere itself. This reduced most of our work (like decoration and stuff). At the beginning of the week, we had a lot more guys than expected and even had to make a wait list, so we pretty much freaked out that we couldn't get the guy:girl ratio even. I felt even more useless since I, being a girl, couldn't get any girls to sign up (some PR I am). But by the end of the week, we managed to get a whole heap of girls (girls like to last minute things ae?).

We got there, we set up, and started the event. I even arranged the roses all pretty in a basket :D. To be honest we were a little pushed for time, since we started quite late due to latecomers, and there turned out to be a lot more girls attending than we had intended to (too much promoting ._.;;) that we had to get some of our committee guys to stand in and there were more pairs to take care of. My job turned from basket girl to showing the guys how to rotate to the different tables. Sounds tedious? Nah not really. It wasn't too hard of a job and gave me a bit of free time to mingle with the other execs/committees. It was a LITTLE disappointing that I couldn't meet many NEW people seeing as I wasn't participating, but I wasn't too bothered about it :3. Interesting how I had a whole bunch of guys come to me at the end of the night asking to buy roses, didn't think they'd sell so well (the length guys would go to to impress girls they're intereted in ae?). Although I ended up buying one myself, it's nice to have something pretty to look at~

Favourite part of the night? Making the promo video. It was great to be a part of something useful and was definitely good for a laugh watching the others put up a performance XD.

The night was a surprisingly great success :D I feel so proud to have such a great result due to all our hard work and effort. By far the best organised event yet, since everyone had pulled their weight and done what they were meant to do :3 (tbh I think it was because we had finally recruited our committee so we had a vast addition of good ideas and helping hands). After that night, I do see the possibility our other events will turn out just as well :). Very much looking forward to camp now~ ^^
