Happy Chinese New Year!

We had a network reunion dinner at ZhenFa in Marina South last night. Original plan proposed by Liqin and I was a small network reunion dinner for Carpe Diem members, but because we invited Mr Yuanjie, Mr DongXu, Mr Guan Xiang and Mr Alvin, we had a bigger network reunion dinner with members from other divisions as well. =)

Carpe Diem occupied two tables and we had lots of fun playing and eating together. When we were all too full to finish the leftovers on our table, Mr Travis suggested that we play Zhong Ji Mi Ma; Whoever got the number had to eat one item from the table. All of us got it at least once except for PeiShan. It was super duper fun! HaHa~!

After dinner, Yong Chuan suggested that we go to the Hongbao River for a walk. Carpe Diem decided to go on foot while the rest went in Mr Yuanjie's car. From there, the adventure begins.

The route we took:

Marina South -> Marina City Park -> Nicoll Highway -> Marina Square -> Suntec City -> Esplanade Drive -> Hongbao River

We took 1.5 hours to reach our destination. Most of the group left when we reached Marina Square, but Qing Yong, Liqin, Wei Qi and I made it to the end. =) However, by the time we reached Hongbao River, most of the shops had already closed. We left after visiting the 12 zodiac animal display.

Though it was a tiring day, it was fun hanging out with so many people who think alike. Hope that we can have such gatherings more often in the future.
