this is a back-dated entry.

our annual dinner and dance at suntec.

nothing special. it is pretty boring, at least to me. though there are some activities that try to bring us together.

the best dressed for different group of people with different clothes of different themes, a lucky draw (which none of us got lucky enough to win the prizes) as well as some jigsaw puzzle which formed the word (which you should have guessed it right) HSBC.

the dishes are just about average. no particular dishes which i like. perhaps the first dish was the most memorable since all of us are starving and they have to drag the time to 8pm before they are willing to serve any dishes to us.

did managed to find quite a lot of other colleagues working together in the same bank but at different places - HSBC building, Sing post as well as the respective branches. the relationship managers (idiotic RMs whose instructions are never clear) as well as people from the finance side and call centres.

they all said that this is a networking session. it indeed is.
