Sunday, June 08, 2008 Today is Jenny's birthday and together with a few girls, we celebrated for her last night. Had dinner at The Pump Room and champagne there too. Got Jenny manicure and pedicure voucher as a birthday gift so that she can go pamper herself. Been a long time since I met the girls and it was lotsa fun last night!     DJ Console is behind.  Helipad is more of a chill-out place, rather than clubbing. We eventually went back to The Pump Room.  Labels: Birthday, Clubbing, Friends, Gathering Sunday, November 11, 2007 Wednesday, 7 November 2007 Was supposed to join Ashley at Zouk for her Hen's Night but because I was held up for dinner, only managed to reach Zouk about 10.40pm. The queue was crazy and I was waiting in the un-moving line for 45 minutes before I sms-ed Ashley to surrender. The queue was not moving and I doubt I could even get in by mid night. I finally left for St James reluctantly at 11.40pm. Would have loved to party with Ashley though. Sigh. :( Anyway, joined Charmaine and her friends at Gallery Bar for some drinks before going to Dragonfly to meet Annie, who was celebrating her birthday there. We danced and drank a lot. An old friend of mine, Peter, joined us. I had not seen him for 2 years and he suddenly called me and said he feel like dancing, hence thought of me. What a weird comment. Nonetheless, Peter joined us and opened another bottle. Geesh, been a while since I drank so much but thank god I did not knock out. Was telling Pauline (Annie's friend) to send me back in case I knocked out since she stays very near me.  Yes, I know I am fat. Been gaining weight! ARGH!!!!  She stays so near me, can party together in future!
Sunday, October 28, 2007 Saturday, 27 October 2007 Roy and I went to visit Shirley at her husband-to-be's house together with Florence and Phyllis at noon. After that, Florence mentioned going to Dragonfly and we were all game! My boy and I reached Vivo City pretty late and by the time we had our dinner at Sushi Tei, it was about 9pm. We were so famished that we started eating without taking any picture of the food we ordered. :P  
 
Labels: Clubbing Monday, September 10, 2007 Friday, 7 September 2007 Had a Girls Night Out with some girlfriends on Friday. Went for a light meal at Shooters before heading to The Arena, Singapore's No.1 International Live Music Venue. This club rocks. And I totally mean it. I thought it would be a little boring at first as the bands were really good but no one was grooving to the music. However, it was different after midnight when everyone started to relax and move to the music. 
Wednesday, September 05, 2007 Phyllis wanna go Zouk today for Mambo Night. I wanna go badly but was working late. Training tomorrow too. So, no MAMBO for me! *SULK*
Sunday, July 22, 2007 Saturday, 21 July 2007 Just got back from Insomnia Cafe at Chijmes. It was awesome dancing to the music once more. The rock band was pretty cool. Prefers the Filipino band to the local band. In any case, really enjoyed myself. Too bad got to leave early at about 1am as Jenny was tired. Oh yah, we had dinner at Hog's Breath Cafe before heading for Insomnia. It was so fun! Running through my day a little, woke up about 1pm and met Roy for lunch at 2pm. Happened to see him on MSN and he asked if wanna do lunch and he was willing to come down Yishun. Had chicken rice and fishball soup before proceeding to Swensen's for ice-cream. Yummy. This lunch date was unexpected but I really enjoyed it. Most importantly, Roy was good company. :) All in all, I had a wonderful Saturday. Think I should plan to go Insomnia again next weekend. Wanna boogie to some rock music! Wooohooo! 2.30pm: Chicken Rice, Fishball with Soup and Green Tea 3.30pm: Ice-Cream from Swensen's 8.30pm: Chicken & Vegetable Soup, Garlic Bread and Cripsy Chicken Salad 10.30pm - 1.30am: 3 bottles of Corona Beer, 1 bottle of Barcadi Breezer and 1 glass of Yellow Tail Chandonnay Exercise: 60 crunches at night Labels: Clubbing Sunday, July 08, 2007 Saturday, 7 July 2007 Woke up about 1pm and slacked at home the whole day. Got to know a new friend, Kenneth, recently and he came pick me about 9pm go Vivo City eat something before heading St James Power House. Realise that I know many Kenneths. Haha. Anyway, let's call him KTan. Coincidentally, KTan and I were from the same uni and same batch though different course. I had never seen him in school at all but then again, perhaps I did and did not remember. Afterall, I am not that good with faces and names of people I don't know personally. Apparently KTan knows Wenyu, Zijun and Cheryl. In fact, he just met Zijun 2 months back. It is indeed a small world. Anyway, went to meet Yee Faye and her colleagues at St James Gallery Bar for drinks. Boy, they sure drank lotsa. Quite a fun bunch. Games and drinks. Very rowdy. I was made to drink the tequila shot after losing in a game and totally dreaded it. KTan was kind enough to take the shot for me though he would be sending me back and he had already had a few shots. Basically, the whole group drowned a bottle of tequila, a bottle of white wine and a bottle of Hennessy. I had a glass of white wine, 2 Vodka Cranberry, 3 Lychee Martinis and 1 Whiskey Coke. Was still very sober though bloated after that. KTan and I went downstairs to Power House then Dragonfly to dance about 4am when the rest left. Had fun and no regret joining Yee Faye. Afterall, got to know new people. Happened to see Zuwei with Yee Faye's colleagues as all of them work in UOB. Also, coincidentally, this guy Stanley who also joined us, is someone KTan knows too. I thought Stanley looked quite familiar and when asked, realised we were both from the same secondary school. There are just so many concidences. The most freaky coincidence was actually knowing Enrique, this South-American guy who is a pilot with SIA now. Enrique joined us with his friend as they know one of Yee Faye's colleagues. Anyway, Enrique is from Bolivia and 6 more months before becoming a full pledged pilot with SIA. Apparently their training takes 2 years. So, he was chatting with me a bit about his country and what he was doing previously. We then headed for the bar for Martinis and when I took out my credit card to foot the bill, I pulled out my driver's license concurrently. I showed it to him and he was just tellig me he was surprised at my age. Also mentioned that we are the same age. So I asked him when is his birthday and he told me a date which freaked me out. Big time. It's the same birth date as mine. Same day, same month and same year! I refused to believe him until he showed me his identity card and I was convinced. It is so amazing. Two people, from two different parts of the world, in fact is one end of the world to the other end of the world, meeting at the same place and sharing the same birth date. Before knowing we shared the same birth date, we were already talking a little about music and dance. Apparently most South American men can Salsa or Latin Dance and I was pretty impressed. I was so excited to know someone sharing the same birthdate as me. This is definitely a first for me man! Enrique and his friend left about 3am and we exchanged contact. He actually knows the live band playing at Cuba Libre and mentioned going there for drinks and dance together. I love Cuba Libre and won't mind going again! :) Anyway, back to KTan. We were at Dragonfly for an hour from 4am but when the cantopop came onto the stage for their last set about 4.45am, we decided to leave. I was quite amused by the band as I have never been really a cheena or canto pop girl. KTan was grinning too but I did not ask much. We left about 5am and he sent me home. Poor him was so tired and he got to wake up about 8am to fetch his mum somewhere. I was kinda worried if he could drive being so tired so invited him into my house and made him a cup of hot tea. He was just sitting around for half an hour before going back. And I was dead beat after that! Though exhausted, I could not sleep after I showered about 6am. Went online to check some emails and finally slept at about 7am. It was a fun night. 2.30pm: Chicken Rice and Iced Tea 5pm: 1 Kiwi and 1 Orange 10pm: Half a BK Big Fish burger and Onion Rings Exercise: 30 crunches in the morning Sunday, 8 July 2007 Woke up about 11.30am to JM's sms on not being able to come fetch me for lunch. I did not want to go meet him without transport, so replied him we would do weekday lunch instead. Finally up about 12.30pm feeling sleepy but could not get back to bed. Had late lunch about 3pm before going for hair treatment.
Slacked somemore when I got back home then dinner about 8pm. It was a slow Sunday and I am still feeling sleepy. Thought about Jeff and he should be back tonight. Should be expecting a call or sms from him tomorrow. Gonna be a packed week starting tomorrow. In fact, I am dreading tomorrow already. Had wanted to go back office this weekend but did not. This means I will have to be in office early tomorrow morning to rush out a campaign proposal. I am out of idea. Argh. HELP. Need to think of something for August and September promotion. Quickly! :( 3pm: 1 bowl of Laksa 7pm: 1 Kiwi and 1 Orange 8pm: Half a plate of Bee Hoon, Half a Taiwan Sausage, 2 Fishballs, 1 Ngoh Hiang, 2 BBQ Chicken Wings and Iced Green Tea Exercise: 30 crunches at night Sunday, June 17, 2007 It has been about a week since I last blogged. It is amazing how the week just flew. It has been an hectic week with lotsa meetings, interviewing candidates for the account management position and most importantly, my performance appraisal. My appraisal was on Monday morning and I took the whole night before to prepare my appraisal paper. Apparently, what I wrote did not seem to be what my Marketing Manager wanted and after my appraisal, I had to do quite a lot of amendments. Because I was so busy the next few days after, I only handed in the final appraisal paper on Friday, and that was after burning midnight oil till 2am to complete! The only highlight of the week was partying with Phyllis on Wednesday. Florence was supposed to join us but she pulled disappearance act on us and only sms-ed after midnight on why she could not turn up. Well, she had wanted to come down after that but both Phy and me thought it was no point. Actually, both of us were quite tired before heading out but because I thought Florence was keen to join us so we decided to go ahead anyway. This was very bad for me as I had a meeting the next morning at 9am. Nevertheless, we enjoyed ourselves very much. Arrived at The Clinic @ The Cannery slightly past 11pm and the music was not bad at first but changed later on, which Phy and me were kinda bored. There was a bunch of Prudential agents (all guys) next to us and kept talking to us. I did not really want to elaborate more this always happens when I party. I just can't emphasize how much I want the guys to leave me alone!    Anyway, we eventually left for Zouk about 2.45am as we were craving for retro. Got there at 3am and partied till 4am. Shared a jug of Purplehaze with Phy while we danced away. It was really nice and coincidently, there were some transvestites there and hmm, they did put up some erotic dancing on the platform. Strangely, many people seemed awed by them and kept looking at them. Phy too kept looking and happily snapping their pictures! Haha. We managed to take pictures of ourselves at Zouk too though.
Sunday, June 10, 2007 Friday, 8 June 2007 It was Jenny's birthday on Friday and she sms-ed me pretty last minute to meet up. We ended up having dinner at Station Kitchen then going directly to Movida. Her friend, Jef, who just got back from overseas, was with us too. Had a real filling dinner and finally danced it out at Movida which was super crowded. Although we managed to get a table (all thanks to Jenny), it was like hijacked by some foreigners when they requested to put their bottle of whiskey on our table. Before we knew it, they were like occupying the whole table! In any case, am just glad Jenny had a fun birthday celebration. That is most important.  Happy Birthday Jenny!
Thursday, May 31, 2007 It has been a long time since I partied. Since today is a holiday, decided to meet Florence and Phyllis to go clubbing last night. It was perfect for Phyllis as it is the June holidays now and she is not teaching. Also, all of us have not partied for a while together, so it would be pretty enjoyable. In any case, we went to Clarke Quay last night, to this club called The Clinic. The music was quite good and fortunately, we managed to find a table and seats. Had Vodka Cranberry, a bottle of Moet Rose, Lychee Martini and a Mojito. The Mojito was not as nice as some latin clubs. Oh well, afterall, Clinic is not exactly a latino club. Oh, did I mention that I managed to smile my way to get the bartender to give me 3 lychees in my Martini? Haha. He was frowning and saying no, could not give me more than 1 lycee. Oh well, 3 lychees were just nice, 1 each for myself, Phyllis and Florence. Expectedly, I was kinda intoxicated by the high alcohol intake but not pissed drunk to the extent that I fell asleep. I was aware of my surrounding and was really trying to dance off the exhilarated feeling. It certainly didn't help that some stupid guys were trying to hit on me. There was this boyish looking guy who offered me his jug of god-knows-what but I rejected his "kind" offer. However, I lamented something like he looked younger than my younger brother. Then he got really agitated and kept telling me he was 28. He basically kept dancing up to me and telling me he was 28 and not young like I imagined him to be. Oh please, do I look like I give a damn? Please grow up, kid. Then there was this guy at the next table who kept telling me he was shy but would like to watch me dance instead of dancing with me. Shy, my foot. Oh, and his friend was such a seasoned player, telling me how hot I was and he only had eyes for me. Yah right. *YAWNZ* There were a few others and I basically was not very friendly. Think Phyllis would agree with me on that. My words to these men were always dripping with sarcasm. Ouch. Well, I can't help it. All I want is to have fun with my GAL friends and not get chatted up by nincompoops. Both Phyllis and Florence brought their cameras and we took quite a few pictures.   Nice digicam and pretty in red!        OMG! We are drinking blood!      STOP drooling!          Oh, special thanks to Anthony for coming down to fetch drunkard me. Haha. Phyllis was sober and called Anthony on my mobile phone while I was half pissed. And dear Anthony was home already but flew down in 20 minutes to come send both of us home. Phyllis was just telling me just now that I kept sprouting nonsense while in the car. Florence met her ex-colleague there and Phyllis told me that this ex-colleague sent Florence home. By the way, Kenneth came down to the club to look for me last night after his movie. He did not even inform that he would be coming and by the time he called and Phyllis answered my phone, he was already at Clarke Quay and wanted to send us back. By then, we were already waiting for Anthony. So, half drunk as I was, I still thanked Kenneth for coming and told him I was alright. I even bade him goodbye! :) It was quite a night and we all had lotsa fun. When I spoke to Anthony this afternoon, I was really laughing.
Hmm, maybe I should just buy him a carton of plastic bags to put in his car to standby. Haha! Thursday, September 28, 2006 Had dinner with Charmaine before heading to Zouk Winebar for drinks. Boy, was it crowded and errmm, the crowd was quite cosmopolitan (i.e. lotsa "ang mohs") which both of us were not exactly keen. It didn't help that the bunch of Caucasian men behind us were outrageously chatting up with some SPGs and making so much noise, making it quite hard for Charmaine and I to converse. We were quite annoyed really. Anyway, we had some wine and downed 2 jugs of Vodka Purplehaze. The waiter who served us was boyishly cute and kept telling us he was new. I just smiled. I didn't really feel like talking to anyone else. Finally it got a little unbearable as those guys behind kept inching towards us and we left. We wanted to check out Velvet before heading home but was greeted by a huge surprise outside. Apparently, Zouk, Phuture and Velvet were all full house and there was a sea of people outside. It was the first time I see such a crowd outside Zouk on a weekday. I mean, we have had been to Zouk/Winebar on Wednesdays but it was never like this. We didn't even bother to check out what was with the crowd but was busying trying to push our way outta the main road to get a cab. In the cab, Charmaine kept saying how tired she was while I was just grumbling how I wanna dance but no chance to. Oh well, I have been suffering from dancing deficiency syndrome lately and always yearning for some music to dance. It certainly doesn't help that my friends are no longer the partying sort and would rather spend time with their boyfriends than go clubbing with me. Suddenly, I feel as if I have aged a lot. I miss dancing and I miss partying with the girls. I am contemplating going back to Salsa or Waltz again. Or perhaps picking up Belly-Dancing. Time is always a hindrance and there will be training lined up in October and November, making working hours more tight. I guess I just have to manage my time and try to work out something. Oh yah, took this picture when I got home last night. Was a little tipsy and I think I looked silly! Haha!  C'mon... I said I was tipsy, NOT drunk! Friday, June 09, 2006 Been a long time since I last blogged and lotsa to update. Work has been busy as usual and that leaves me less time for myself. I have been catching up with my friends quite a bit of late though. Will be meeting Jenny for dinner and partying at ButterFactory and LiquidRoom. Hmm, that is if I can make it. Not sure why but I suddenly became voiceless on Wednesday morning and though it is Friday now, I still can't talk.
When I was in office yesterday and today, my colleagues were all commenting that my voice was so hoarse. Even when I talked to partners on phone, they kept asking me what was wrong. Sure hope my throat will improve by tomorrow! Anyway, better zoom into my updates! Partying I have been quite a retro freak of late. It so happens that Charmaine loves retro and we have been going Zouk for the last few Wednesdays. Yes, I know I am a little old for MAMBO JUMBO but we just dig the music. It is really fun when you can be partying with someone who can dance to the same genre of music as yourself. ButterFactory and LiquidRoom tomorrow will be more Hip Hop and R&B. A nice change and I can once again groove to the music. Been a while since I went partying with R&B lovers. In fact, I sorta like Hip Hop and R&B too. Actually, I realise that I can dance to most music, except techno. So, Music Underground is a No-No for me! Job Confirmation I had my Confirmation Review last Friday with 2 managers. 6 months passed so quickly. And yes, they will confirm me but I sure hope that I get a nice salary adjustment, especially when I have been performing to my best. Actually was a little disappointed when Bernard pointed out to me my overall grading. I merely exceeded their expectations by a little, not exactly above expectations though. Nevertheless, the review is good as they listed down my next 1 year objectives and I look forward to fulfilling them. Hopefully better than expected! With a new marketing colleague Eugene on board, I hope to be able to work with him and Charmaine to achieve better production and manage our accounts better. Bangkok in July After much procrastination, I finally booked my air tickets and accomodation to Bangkok from 22 - 25 July 2006. Will be going there with Mummy. Main aim is to go there and pray to the 4-Faced Buddha near World Trade Centre. Well, last November when I went Bangkok, I had prayed for a job switch as I felt quite stagnant in my previous job. I promised to go back in 2006 to pray if I get what I want. And after my Bangkok trip, I was called for so many interviews and finaly started my current job in mid December. So, in due respect, I will go back to pray, at the same time can do some shopping there. I need this break too. Been kinda stretched at work. Am missing Bangkok Tom Yum Soup already! Team Building Trip July is certainly full of activities. My boss is planning for a team building trip to Desaru for the whole department. 7 - 9 July. Will probably leave on Friday night after work then back on Monday. Think it will be quite fun though tiring. Team building games are always challenging and we got to learn to trust our team mates. Perhaps I should really shed some weight now in case my team mates got to carry me over a sea of fire or water during any of the game session! Marketing Event Did I just mention that July is a happening month? Well, Charmaine will be organising an event for the sales persons from a major account. Venue yet to be confirmed but date is fixed on 21 July, a day before my Bangkok trip! There will be awards giving, food, drinks, ktv and also door gifts. Hope it is a success! And I should also start planning for my event from an account I am handling. Will need to tabulate the contest results first then can plan the event. Similar to Charmaine's but mine is a smaller scale as the number of sales persons is fewer too. I better start working out the contest results soon man! Great Singapore Sale The GSS started officially on 27 May and I have purchased some tops and bags till date. Find my wardrobe getting boring and want a change. As I hardly wear suits to work nowadays, I find my office attire too casual for my own taste. Will probably shop again this weekend! Sunday, November 20, 2005 Anyway, the night was good. Headed for Double O. Was playing Retro and really enjoyed the music. Was in retro mood. Had wanted to go Bar None but in no mood for R&B. Had not listened to Douglas O for the longest time. Should find time to head for Bar None sometime soon man. Steven did dance, unlike many men there. I sure hope he enjoyed my company and I make a good dance partner. Haha. And he kept asking me if there are cute guys but I am usually quite oblivious to my surroundings, especially when I danced. I never bothered to even glance around. Left the club at 4am but thinking of the alcohol calories, do not feel too thrilled. My alcohol consumption for the night: 1 Glass Flaming Lamborghini 1 Jug Whiskey Coke 3 Glasses Lychee Martinis 1 Glass Vodka Ribena A few sips of Vodka RedBull (compliments from the group of young men at our table) Not too much but the calories can seriously cause my weight gain! Haha. All in all, had an enjoyable evening. Thanks Steve. Labels: Clubbing |
