what’s up with dec 16?
at the moment, i have FOUR post-work events lined up for this date! wow, seems like it’s an auspicious date, as my chinese friend would say. or just that people want to reunite before end of the year. and there is also a bunch of corporate events on that date too that i know of (which leads to thinking that there’s budgets left over hehe). here’s the list of tentative activities (in order of importance to me), can’t make up my mind which one to go to yet.
shanghai window - a gathering for china fans
open coffee - a gathering for IT fans
repats happy hour -monthly get together for returnee to serbia
humanitarian/student party - a friend is organizing, and there will be some celebrities
for me, the goal to attend just activities is to network. not hard-sell, name card swapping, but just to meet interesting people, hear new ideas, to expand my knowledge a bit but also to have fun. hence, the above order of things.
my friends the other day were convinced that i am wrong in such thinking, and had a whole different theory on deciding which event to attend by asking a very simple question: where can you meet more guys? :) watch this space, i’ll let you know which event i go to in the end! :)
