heart day

my friends and i attended a valentine party last night.  the hosts warmly welcomed us and pushed us to get our food right away.  thanks : )

after filling our plates, they suddenly went, "wait, injection before eating..."

???

they then taped a toothpick at the junction of our arm and forearm (that part behind the elbow, i don't know what it's called : }).  you had to keep your arms straight otherwise the toothpick would pierce your flesh.  yikes, how are we going to eat if we cannot bend our arms?

they said we'll have to feed each other.  it's a valentine party, you take care of your friends.  hmmm... nice idea...

so, arms straight, my friends and i fed each other.  uncomfortable but fun : )

i went back to the spread eyeing the barbecue.  i was trying to figure out a way to get one when a guy came over and said he was going to take care of it.  he picked up a stick and fed me.  sweet... and cute, too... taken though, so pass : }

after eating, there were games.  one was where you had to list down the names of four persons, still living, dearest and most important to you.  we made our lists. and then a journey of elimination : }

the four are in a boat and there's a storm.  you had to sacrifice one person otherwise the boat would sink.  who would you let go?  ooops.  this went on until you are left with only one person.  hmmm... not the most pleasant of games.  the decision-making part and the stories and explanations after tug at your heartstrings...

according to the host, the times they played this game, he noticed a pattern.  the wives sacrificed the husbands first. the husbands kept the wives to the end.  hmmm!!!  hmmmm???  hmmmm...
