The One about Oktoberfest 2009.....

Was asked by Lydia earlier during the week on whether i would be keen to go for Oktoberfest this year proudly organised by Erdinger & Timbre Mobile located at East Coast Park. Even though i was currently on a diet (and Savings) plan, the temptation for cheap beer and good food was simply too great! So decided to go for the 'Eat now, Think later' mentality.

When we reached i realised that everyone else must have had the exact idea too as it was pcked with people! Thank god for the table reservation made were we able to secure a place. Bumped into quite a number of friends that i havent met in quite a while (Bernie, Charlene, Philbert thats you!). There was also a performance by Swiss funk band Starch and with that in place, The Circle of enjoyment is once again complete! (Good food, Drinks, Music ,Company)

Lynn, Jerms and Beckie were around too as we helped ourselves to the beer, pizza, wings and sausages. In fact we may have even ordered a little too much as there were plenty of leftovers! But seriously, food was awesome la... i was just too stuffed to finish them all.

As usual, the event was also filled with cute female service staff dressed as German Beer maids complete with the pigtails. I guess i must have a little to much to drink coz at one point i could have sworn that i slammed my beer mug on the table and called out 'MORE ALE WENCH!' oops..... not the most clever of ideas....

Lyd's chef friend joined us after that too... Haha... didnt manage to help us finish the food though coz he felt it was too overcooked.... lol... Till then!

The one about Casse's Wedding & SQ's birthday...

Was invited by Qin to celebrate her birthday at her workplace in Clarke Quay. Javern and I was rather early as we spent the morning at Casse & Benny's Wedding. didnt get to take much pictures as there was already quite a few professional photographers there (My lil old camera looks like a toy compared to theirs) Saw quite a number of familar faces though (Hi Charlotte, Sharon, Elaine...etc) but most of them were pretty busy doing their job as jie meis la.

Letf slightly earlier than planned as Jav and i both had to make our way to Clarke Quay for Qins birthday next. Somehow we managed to reach rather early and had some extra time to chill. It wasnt long before the rest all arrived and we made our way slowly for dinner and thereafter for Drinks.

It was a pretty relaxing evening with us playing games such as dice and darts (Lynn is suprisingly good for a beginner). Got the birthday girl a cake but she ended up feeding the cake to everyone else....*#$%$^%$....... But I guess we all got our revenge when she was loaded with a few 151s in the end! 1st one courtesy of me!

So Here it is.... Happy Birthday Qin! Hope you had a great one =)

The one about Ready Set Glo: The Mad Decent Tour....

Well i always gotta give it up for Ning who have always invited us to the most awesome parties and events. This one is of course no exception. Recieved an txt msg we simply two words the day before that went 'Tommorow... Zouk' and considering the fact that Cash and Judy were both performing there too i decided to check it out.

Turns out i was not dissapointed to say the least! Would should be the guest Dj that night but Dim Mak label owner and remixer du jour Steve Aoki! This time however he brought his partner in crime Diplo who had been the person responsible for the remixes by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Hot Chi1p,Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears to name a few. Music was simply great that evening! This was of course part of the monthly parties brought to us by 42below vodka!

Apart from that was also the quirkiness of Steve aokis personality that brought a new life to the party. Among all of it the few that i had a strong impression of was him ripping his shirt of on stage as well as spraying champagne on everyone on the dance floor.... Ok... all of a sudden i am quite happy i was not that close to the console.

While there i also managed to check out a new flavour of 42 below which was plum flavoured. Tasted exactly like plum wine but with a stronger kick and buzz of course. Hmm..... the next time i am gonna mix it with Soda....

The one about Singtel Grid Girl Finals 2009...

Was invited by Crystal to support her at the finals of the Singtel Grid Girls competition and imagine my suprise to bump into many friends that i didn't expect to see! Chermaine was one of them as i was under the impression that she couln't make it. Later did i realise it was just part of her plan to give Crystal a suprise.. Haha Sweeeeet.

It was also rather funny as i managed to catch up a while with Feliza as well. Funny because we both saw one another but dared not approach one another for fear that we recognised the wrong person. Event was rather amazing even though Crystal's section of supporters was completely packed so that I and Chermaine had to park ourselves in another section, but no matter! We still cheered as l0ud as possible for both parties as well.

Nick was there as well with his trusty little camera and took a picture of me in another section! Haha... don't anyhow post the picture k bro, you are gonna get meinto so much trouble

Didnt came as a suprise when we saw who was the overall winner though as she was already given quite high marks in all the graded segments prior to the competition. Nevertheless we are all very proud of you babe! Hoot! Congratulations to Cordy as well who came in second runner up in the competition as well =).

The one about the Birthday celebration 2009....

Even though the main activities of the celebration wa pretty much the same as any other year. But this year turned out to be a rather special day after all! I guess i was having mixed emotions with regards to the whole thing and don't get me wrong, i have pretty much let it go and come to terms with the fact that what has happened is a reality and will not change in whatever way.

However, part of me was actually hoping that maybe they would at least drop a birthday greeting.... perhaps a card... perhaps a sms.... whatever. After all i did the same ya? Well... it did not happen and if you are reading this (and i am very sure you are not), just want to say Congratz for finding what you have been looking for all this while.

On to more cheerful stuffs, as a safeguard in case i got toally wasted. I decided to book a hotel room once again. Spent the day relaxing before heading to Dbl O to catch Cash & Judy's performance (Awesome as usual). Seriously thought i could escape from all the drinking but it was totally naive to think that Joe, Fran, Jasper, Jason, Jack and the rest of the gang would let me off that easily. Simply put, i was 70% gone when we left Dbl O for Butter and once we reached Butter factory, Cash and Jack delivered the killing blows of a shot of flaming 151's each. Couldnt remember a thing after that but i was told that we went for supper, followed by back to the hotel for board games.

The next day was an exciting day of Wakeboarding (or at least trying to) and Prawning till the morning! Call me slow but it is seriously the first time i have attempted both activities and even though i pretty much suck at both, I have a pretty great time after all. Just want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who made this a special and memorable day for me. Special thanks to 'Family' (hehe... you guys know who you are)
