Were you there Conniechong? I was looking for you (even though I have no idea what you look like!). Thought I would say hello to a fellow Malaysian. I was there with the hubby around 1.30 pm.

Hi Crimper, my fellow Malaysian. I wasn't there, but had gone for the first meeting at Xintiandi. Well, we can arrange to meet somehow. What about this coming coffee meeting?

This is one of the reasons you go there. First time I went there I was alone and started making lots of new friends. Don't be shy. there are plenty of other people in the same situation. Just say hello and introduce yourself and you'll be set!

Real name is probably better since you are meeting for real. Its up to you though
I guess some people use their real names or personal nicknames as their tag on the forums.

Only strangers and my really, really close mates call me Kuldaen face to face. Smile

oh my goodness, I just typed in the exact sequence of the username above my post (the one with all the numbers) and out popped these 3 Chinese characters. How cool! Ok, please ignore my above posts and carry on with your coffee meeting discusion.

no. not strange at all. its was just that your login name on the left hand side is just numbers that represent the Unicode characters (#22909;#26031;#20339) instead of the chinese characters (好斯佳). A limitation of the forum software

Hello everyone, I am a newcomer to this site. I will be coming to Shanghai next week for vacation and I would love to meet new friends in Shanghai to take me around Shanghai for a great night life.

Does this meeting hold every sunday at noon? Cause I think I can join the 9/11/05 meeting. Is there a fee to the meeting?

I guess all I have to bring is my smile, my politness and my wallet. Right?!

Take care everyone and hope to see you guys there.

I lives in New York City, but I am a ABC who born in Shanghai but left and live in NYC since i was little.

Bye and be happy. Laughing

PS. IS there a address for Coffee Bean?? If I call a cab just tell them Coffee Bean in Xintiandi?

Thanks for everthing

No I don't think your name (the 3 Chinese characters) are strange at all. I just thought your login name was all those numbers rather than the 3 characters but Kuldaen explained it to me.
