What I felt when playing the game
It felt very exhausting whether you are a catcher or a runner. If you are a runner, you have to run away from an ever growing line of catchers. If you are a catcher, you have to coordinate with fellow catchers to catch the runners. Both tasks are very tiring.
What I observed in my classmates when playing the game
My classmates invented new tactics like joining of the heads and disconnecting the line to catch some of the runners. Another tactic is for the runners to slide unsuspectedly to a hole in the line of catchers.
What variations would I give
A possible variation is for two or more line of catchers to compete in getting the most runners. The longest line of catchers wins.

What I felt when playing the game
I felt mostly relaxed when carrying the egg and only become nervous when there are signs that the egg may fall. I also felt that I walk slower than my classmates. I laughed at the state of the eggs and the gym after playing the game.
What I observed in my classmates when playing the game
Most of my classmates lacked the relaxed attitude that I have but are faster than me. All of my classmates probably laughed at the same things that I laughed at and they also laughed when an egg accidentally falls down.
What variations would I give
Making an obstacle course or a relay race or a combination of both are good ideas for variations of this game.

What I felt when playing the game
It felt exhausting when you are the one being thrown balls of socks at. However, it felt satisfying when I am the one throwing the balls. Most of the time, however, the opposing team just catches the ball that I throw at them which leaves me frustrated and embarrassed to my team.
What I observed in my classmates when playing the game
Most of my classmates seemed to enjoy being thrown at a lot more than throwing since their faces are surprisingly usually happier than those who are throwing the balls.
What variations would I give
A good variation will be forming a circle instead of two lines. Another variation will be letting the ones who are getting hit to catch a ball and become a thrower, while the one who threw the ball that was caught will join the ones who are getting hit.

What I felt when playing the game
I felt nostalgic when playing this game since I always play this game with my friends back when I was a kid. I get frustrated when my finger is about to reach my opponent’s body part (legs, elbows, head, etc.) when he or she suddenly just moves the said part away from me.
What I observed in my classmates when playing the game
My classmates most likely felt the same way as I did. Most of them are competitive in getting their finger to touch the opponent’s body.
What variations would I give
A possible variation will be getting your finger to touch your opponent’s head to win the game. Another variation is to get your opponent’s finger to touch you.

What I felt when playing the game
I felt suspense throughout the game as I not only had to mind which number was called but I also had to be aware about my opponent since he or she can just tag me to win the round. Variations of the game made it more confusing for me. I feel satisfied when I beat my opponent in getting the “panyo” to my side.
What I observed in my classmates when playing the game
I think that my classmates also felt suspense in thinking how they would get the “panyo” to their side. Some were confused in knowing if their number was called.
What variations would I give
A good variation will be adding more “panyo” and getting them to your side while preventing your opponent from getting all the “panyo” to his or her side.
