You must have experienced this: you come to a party without really knowing who’s who. You are seated to a table, hoping someone will open the chitchat. Then you find everyone is doing the same thing, feeling awkward not knowing how to start a conversation. You look around and notice a few special tables with prominent guests but you have no clue who they are and how to approach them. You leave feeling a bit of loss: why am I coming to this party in the first place?
Not in this party! In this year’s Bay Street Chinese Xmas Party, we shall have around 40 named tables, each hosted by the head of that table. Check them out below. Would you still feel at loss how to break the ice?
So if you feel you could identify with some “head” of table, if you feel it would be just fun simply to find out what the table is about, or if you feel you now have an urge to table-hop and propose a toast, join us at the party!
Simply go to http://theccfa.net/event-2069380/Registration to register your name and email address! Then forward the receipt or digital ticket to Jinke (xmas.jinke@gmail.com) and reserve your desired tables. You need to submit at least three tables names and it will be offered as First-Come-First-Served! Of course you can opt to keep the suspense and find out your table when you check in at the door.
Yes, it’s that simple!
