The One about Christmas....

It was Christmas eve and i was originally intending to spend the evening with a good dinner with my family before heading down to a bar for some standard wings and beer while counting down to the much anticipated day itself. However, as i was requested to be the designated Hotel Santa Clause for the day some adjustments had to be made to my original plans.
Invited my Dad, Mum and Bro over to Tien Court for a great Xmas eve dinner! A little pricey, but i figured since i was unable to have Xmas eve dinner with them i reckoned the next best thing was to keep them in close proximity during the dinner period! So as my family were having their xmas dinner, i decided to go around the entire hotel 'Hohoho~ing' away and terorizing the rest of my collegues (That inclues you Tara! and thanks for the chicken wings!). It was happy and nice to see all the happy faces around.
Gatecrashed Joey's Xmas party that was also held in my hotel after that and special credit to Joey who managed the decorations in the place all by herself! There was lots of food and drinks to go around that evening and not to mention the Special pasta made by Joey and the party packs that was sponsored by Daphne!
Spent the remaining of the evening playing Twister and other games with everyone (Never knew that it could actually be that tiring. And of course followed by the Xmas countdown followed by the gift exchange session! Recieved a lot of col gifts that i am thankful for from everyone so i would like to take this opportunity to Thank everyone for them! Merry Xmas!

The one about a Howling happy hour!!!

Recieved a call from Connie a week before the event that she was the lucky winner of the private happy hour party that was held at Howl atg the moon! It was also very sweet of Connie for the invitation to the event. Had a prior engagement before the party so headed down as soon as i could.

As usual the atmosphere and energy in the place never fails to amuse and entertain me. Whats more was that this time we actually managed to pull off a prank on Connie herself! Lets just say we changed the quote of the day to something more interesting that got her called up on stage!

With all the alchohol that was consumed that day, It was only a matter of time where everyone started to bring the dancing on to the stage. Special mention to Connie and Ellery who were the dancing queens of the night! As for the new frieds we met that night (Pat, Kate) Hope to meet up with you guys again soon!

The one about Zoukout!!!

Have been looking to this event for almost the entire year! Yes it is none other than Zoukout! Managed to purchase Zoukout passes at discounted rates thanks to Daphne (thanks babe!) Met up with everyone early before making our way to Sentosa and taking a slow walk along the beach to the Zoukout party area.

As it was the first Zoukout for many of us, we decided to do a little exploring at the whole area. It was filled with many awesome booths to be checked out! I managed to get a Zoukout T-Shirt for myself in the process too! Decided to check out the musical area after that and it was filled with performances from many different artists (Nouvelle Vague, Electrico) as well as music of many different Genres (Electro, Hip Hop, Retro) There was something for all and everyone was dancing the night away!

Managed to get outselves access to the Heineken, Chivas, 42 Below & Singtel VIP tentages as well though it really isn't something to be really proud of, but it definately helped to spice up the entire party! Singtel for providing the 2 hours free flow and 42 below for having the most happening booth in the whole area with dancers, caricature artists and more!

Danced all the way till 3am before DJ Sasha started his set for the night. It was a pity that we did not manage to stay till Above and Beyong started theirs though. But no matter! there will always be another time! Can;t wait for ZOUKOUT 2009!!!

The one about the C.H.A.I emporium launch....

Recieved an invite to the launch party of the CHAI Fashion Emporium located at the 1st floor of Liang Court and decided to attend it with Connie and Adeline. Now just a little introduction about it, CHAI actually stands for : cosmetics.home.apparel.intimates (It also happens to be the surname of the owner)

This all new fashion emporium is nothing like i have ever seen before! In fact i strongly believe that there is something for everyone right in that store. Ranging from items such as cosmetics by well known brands to even designer toys by the guys from Play Imaginative. Apart from that, the outlet is also connected to a Blush! lingerie boutique specially for the ladies.

The event was definately a blast in my books. Each person was given a goodie bag filled with items upon entry. Apart from that, they were also given a card which contained directions to certain booths for other freebies. I was a little lazy to collect the additional items so i headed straight to the refreshment area followed by some casual Shopping and the Fasion show.

Definately had a lot of fun during the event and it was also a great opportunity to catch up with some friends too! Once again, Special thanks to Shauna for the invite!

The one about Red, Blue and Gold

Met up with Edwina for a day of Shopping, Ktv and icecream before heading over to Rebel for an event that i have been looking forward to for quite a while already. It was the Red, Blue and Gold party that organised by a few members from the Acsian community. Thus, linked up with a few old friends (a.k.a Jeff, Chris & Max) to attend the event... Javern came too!

Quite suprisingly i was rather impressed with what the event had to offer! Popcorn and Candy Floss machines as well as Ice cream carts too! Needless to mention there were also many hotties selling Vodka ribena drinks in school waterbottles (haha... rather cute actually) All profits were donated to the M.I.L.K foundation. The Event ended with a auction of the Hotties! (both Male and Female) hahaha....

It was great catching up with old friends finding out what they had been up to upon graduation... rather nostalgic la.. But also it was a night of partying too! Great to me able to hang out with everyone again!

The one about Suprises....

Organised a Dinner/ KTV belated birthday celebration for May. The whole outing/celebration was planned under the context that it was going to be a casual dinner with Me and Jav only. What May didn't know was that i had a couple of suprises in store for her.

Suprise #1: When May arrived at the Dining place (Pasta de waraku) Francesca was there waiting with me and Javern! Soonly after, Jerraine appeared during our dinner as well! This was after Jerraine orginally informed May that she couldn't make it due to work committments of course.

Suprise #2: We finished our dinner and headed over to Kbox for a karaoke session were suprise #2 awaited May. This suprise was none other than Daphne and April who appeared for the party with a cake! (From Nydc some more... Wah... nice!) We had lotsa fun singing and dancing to some old tunes from the karaoke system while i concurrently awaited the arrival of the special guest (Suprise #3)

Suprise #3: This suprise arrived late because she was caught in a jam. And it was none other than Joey who was supposed to be in Hong kong at that period of time. May was pleasantly suprised of courseand i breathed a sigh of relieve. Hahaha... keeping secrets is tough work!

The one about Twilight...

Attended 987fms latest RSVP party thanks to invitation from Desiree! Decided to attend with Mellisia, Pearlyn, Jav and PJ. Was rather excited as this time the party was a tie in with the novel (and now movie) 'Twilight'.

The idea of the party was for everyone to dress in in black. Make up artists were there to make everyone more 'vampiric' and everyone were given a pair of fangs to put on as well! All this was done as 987fm was trying to organise an attempt to break a world record fo having the most people dressed as vampires in a single location on one night. It was pretty cool actually!
Seeing every dressed in the Emo/goth fashion was something that i have not checked out before. There were vampires of every style, enthnicity ad age too!! If there is ever a part 2 of this event, you can rest assured that i will be there. Head over to the butter factory after that to meet up ith Lyddie, Grace and Denise for a night of Dancing!

The one with the pretty Heineken girl....

Haha.... i was thinking of different possible titles for the particular entry and somehow i decided to settle with this one. Was supposed to link up with Javern first at CQ before meeting up with Cash to decided on a place to chill for the rest of the evening. As we had quite a lot of time to kill we decided to walk around the entire Clarke Quay area to check out the newly opened outlets.

As we were walking around, we came across a Xmas Greeting Billboard sponsored by Heineken! A really pretty girl came by and invited us to put up our own greeting by putting in pegs on the billboard. It was rather difficult as the pegs kept falling out but we managed to finish a word 'Beer!' in the end (The girl was really cute la... didn't wanna dissapoint her)

Decided to chill at Yello Jello after that (A new Retro Bar that took over the original location of Kandi Bar) and coincidentally bumped into Des who was attending the heineken event there as well! Had a couple of beers and checked out the Band which was very 'Archie' like if you know what i mean. We managed to stay till 12 b4 finally heading to Bellini Grande and Rebel to find Cash, Sam, Judy and Matt to party the night away.

The one about Zirca....

Recieved invites to the preview of Zirca (Previously MOS) courtesy of Javern. And as i havent been clubbing for quite a while already, decided it would probably be a good idea to check it out!

Linked up with Connie and gang at the entrance before proceeding in for the event. Bumped into Terrence and Shirlyn as well who took the opprtunity to introduced Shermin and Sharon who were also making their way into the Club.
The Ambience of the location was great! Imagine a fusion or MOS together with the likes of Atticca and Crazy horseand you will get Zirca. There were a couple of Dance and Percussion Performances as well a 'dance' item performed by two ladies in a suspended pool of water (you gotta see it to be able to understand la)

Overall it was a great event! Special thanks to Shermin who managed to squeeze into the crowd of people to get drinks for everyone!
