A night we could hardly remember.

So did any of you guys go to the 7aste Monte Carlo event last Friday at Ecoba? It was totally an unforgettable night, yet it was also a night we could hardly remember =______=

I was again on duty that night. I invited some of my friends and asked them to bring along their friends too, as many as they can, whole kampung also can. And they really did bring the whole kampung (literally). We had almost 20 people in our group; can you imagine 20 alcoholics in a free flow event? We ended up being the most chaotic group of that night =______= All came to the event looking all glam up, but went home looking like a drunk-tard.

It was fun, memorable but yet….we wish we can forgot about drunken behavior. God knows what we did because we could hardly remember with our wine drained brain!

When we were still sober...

On the way to drunkland...

Totally K.O.

The aftermath was so severe, we all had hangover for the next 2 days. Our tongue was so numb, we could hardly taste anything we ate. And thus we made a vow, no more alcohol....for now ;P

Our alcohol deity, Alvin Cheok's birthday is coming soon. The status "Alcohol Deity" is not simply given to him, he is famous for having 0% reaction towards alcohol. So what is there to do on his birthday? Make him break his status again, like what we did last year, muahahahaha!

We have a plan....

All hail to the deity!

It's not me, it's the B.

Did I just gone hiatus for 2 months? O_______o

Dear bloggie, I’m so sorry for abandoning you for such a long time. It’s not that I don’t love you, but I don’t even have time for myself, put the blame on the boss!

In case you haven’t known yet, I left my previous skincare company and joined an interactive design agency. I loved working at my previous company; I love what I did there and the colleagues. But life goes on, everyone has to look forward for a better future. Contrary to everyone’s believe, sometimes it’s not all about the passion, it's the MONEY that counts $$$ding ding ding$$$

But with great power, comes great responsibility. I thought the workload I had at my previous company was heavy enough, but my present company is even crazier. At least I had longer dead line back then, but now…I’m challenged to finish 3-4 jobs in ONE day. Sometimes I’m required to stay back late in the office, but luckily I have a bunch of crazy and fun colleagues to work with. Though I’m the only girl here =___________________=

But I think I mix well with boys better than girls, because they’re more carefree, less sensitive and as a girl, I can take advantage =P I can always ask them to do things for me and they can’t say no. Nyek! Nyek! Nyek! Talking about that, I think I have more guy friends than girl friends O______o Can you imagine during my wedding day, my future husband comes banging the door with his buddies and going to have the shock of their lives to see all guys wearing skirts asking for ang pao?

I had a very interesting weekend with my colleagues last week. 3 programmers and 2 designers wacked a Porsche and Bentley with our boss to Penang for an event called 7aste, co-managed by our company together with Scenique, an event coordinating company. Before I tell you about the highlight of this working trip, let me show you some of the pictures taken with my ex college mate cum ex boyfriend but present colleague cum best buddy, Alvin Ho’s Blackberry. I know, it's complicated.

The event was held at 32 at the Mansion, somewhere around Gurney facing the beach.

Since Mild Seven is not legal to do an event to create awareness because it's a cigarette brand and everyone know it's a taboo in Malaysia, so they used the name 7aste instead.

DJ stage.

The interactive casino games done by my company's programmers and web designers. I did the backdrop design since I'm based in graphic. All managed by using touch screen.


Everyone trying their luck to win prizes like iPod Shuffle, iPod Touch and most of all, the star of the night, the one and only iPad!

So if you guys want to win these seductive prizes too, come join us on 8 October 2010 at Ecoba for our last stop =) Free flow of alcohol, great music, games and prizes! Just register as 7aste member here.

Me and my sweaty colleague, programmer Clarence, standing in front of the air cooler blasting in full speed while keeping the games system in check.

The event ended around 12am without any major dramas and fight *cis!* I waited all night for someone to throw a fist on someone's face but I got disappointed. We started to pack things up right after that and only reached back to our apartment for rest around 3am+ and with our tummies grumbling...we tapao-ed nasi kandar and roti canai. Eating at the break of dawn around 4am, it felt like we were Malays in the midst of buka puasa during the waktu sahur, hahaha!

Stupid monkey Alvin Ho kicked my bed the next morning at 11am. Why couldn't he let me sleep for a little longer! After having a heavy lunch at Chili's, Alvin Ho and I glamorously got into the mega luxurious Bentley and zoom our way back to KL.

Enjoying our life as rich brats for one day, this opportunity doesn't come all the time ;)

Full leather, even the dashboard. All hand made O___o
Classic and elegant looking clock.

The rest of my colleagues at the back driving the gigantic Hyundai Starex with our props, LCDs and monitors.

What was there to do in an expensive car? CAMWHORE!

While enjoying our "rich brats for a day" lives and singing "We Are The Champion" by Queens and laughing at other people's worn out cars...

GONG! GONG! GONG! *shake shake shake* GONG! GONG! GONG! *shake shake shake*

The Bentley suddenly transformed into a massage chair. It shook the juice out of us and made all sorts of funny sound. We couldn't even run more than 50km/h or the whole car would shook like as if it will fall to pieces in the middle of the road. So can you imagine a Bentley rolling like a tortoise at the side of the road? Even a lorry drove passed us and gave us that "WTF" stare. We thought we got a flat tire and decided to make a turn into a small town to check. As we turned, the whole car slanted to one side, screeched and stopped. We got down from the car and saw this...

The whole tire came off from the car!!!! O_____o

With only one nut dangling on the rim and the rest of the nuts all scattered around with the rim cover lying somewhere in the middle of the road.

Thanks to my boss for speeding the car 280km/h the night before, it was so fast the tire came loose and it totally came off when it was our turn driving it back.

It was utterly embarrassed to break down in the middle of the road especially you were driving a Bentley! One minute we were singing "We Are The Champions"...the next thing we know, we were soaking in sweat under the sun with the broken Bentley.

We thought fixing back the tire will solve the problem with kind help from a passerby. But a man riding in a motorbike claimed that the car's bearing was broken and needed to be tolled back. He passed me a namecard and obviously he is a foreman trying to earn some extra money from us seeing we were driving a luxurious car. But too bad, we were just 2 poor kids driving our boss' car. He found the wrong target.

We gave boss a call and he wanted the car to be tolled back to KL. It's totally understandable that he didn't want some strangers to lay hands on his expensive car. But risking our lives in the middle of the road for 3 hours for his friend to come save us from KL is totally unacceptable! We were in the middle of nowhere, stranded at the cornering road with only trees and grass everywhere and a big shining sun above our heads.

Then we saw a PLUS police car coming our way and we flagged them down. They must be God sent! They set up cones and lights to alert other cars, fixed back the tire on the car and called someone to toll the car straight back to KL! We didn’t know that Malaysia still have some hopeful police T___T

We thought we would have a comforting ride back to KL in the Bentley with air conditioner and “auto cruise” from the toll truck. But I wonder what karma did to us, the air conditioner went warm after 5 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!! We winded down the window to have some air outside coming in, though we had to bare with the noise and smoke outside, but at least we felt a bit airy. Then it rained =____________________________________=

…

WHAT DID WE DO TO DESERVE THIS?!!!!!

Ever since then, I don’t have good feelings with Bentley anymore.

In case you didn’t know, the Bentley I cursed in this whole post is worth RM 1.5 million. KA-CHING! $$$$$$

Latest Obsession.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually addicted to the supernatural teen drama,

The Vampire Diaries!

It's yet another soppy cheesy love story between a human and a vampire trapped in a condemned and forbidden relationship, just like the Twilight Saga. But AT LEAST The Vampire Diaries has pretty people like the HOT HOT HOT Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley!!!

Comparing to...

The scruffy looking Robert Pattinson that doesn't wash his hair for days, eewww....

And please, Kristen Steward and Robert Pattinson can't act at all. I can hardly feel the chemistry between them in the movie, they both look like they're out of breath while talking, especially Kristen Steward. Comparing to the leading lady in The Vampire Diaries, Nina Dobrev, she can act wayyyyyy better than Kristen Steward and she even look wayyyyyy better.

Even though the drama doesn't have nice computer animated graphics and effects like Twilight, but their story line is much better and they have nice soundtracks. And I just love the chemistry between Elena (Nina Dobrev) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) in the drama. Though I prefer Damon (Ian Somerhalder) because he plays a very sexy villain with his villain-ish eyes...

*weak knees*

I was so happy when I read in the gossip column that rumors are flying around that Ian and Nina are dating. They make a very cute couple!

Pretty girl + Hot dude = Match made in heaven!

But rumors will always be rumors. There are no proves and made out of zero evidences. And my eyes nearly popped out from their sockets when I saw this...

Ian is currently dating this woman and it's 100% proven with this picture of him holding her hand. This potato face over the cute pretty Nina Dobrev?!!!! Seriously! WTF?!

I know, I'm no longer a high school teenage girl anymore. I'm a career lady with plans and bright future ahead. Why am I fan girl-ing over some celebrities and their private lives?!

Girls will always be girls, we can't resist hot guys!

KILL MEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Singapore!

Finally I'm back from Singapore and I spent a day off from work to rest my poor legs. They suffered tremendous torture for walking non stop for 2 consecutive days! I came home with 3 blisters on my foot and torn boots! The sole of my boots came off! Imagine the intensiveness of our shopping marathon! We bombarded nearly 5 shopping malls in 2 days, but the stuff there ain't cheap. Everything is still much more expensive than the stuff in Malaysia even though they are on sale. So overall it didn't really satisfy my shopping hunger because I kept holding myself back from buying them, knowing Malaysia sells cheaper. Oh well, I guess I have an excuse for another shopping spree XD

Alvin and I boarded the Tiger Airway airplane at 2.30pm. We were both shocked when we were greeted by an air attendant that I guess...in her 50s? I know Tiger Airline is Singapore's budget airline like Malaysia's Air Asia, but I didn't know they cut budget on hiring younger air attendants too.

We took a mere 45 minutes to reach Singapore. After 20 minutes to take off and the "buckle up" sign was off, I got up from my seat and went to the toilet. By the time I went back to my seat, the captain announced that they were getting ready to land already =_=

My bestie Sau Yeen greeted us at the airport. Singapore is famous for their convenient public transports (unlike Malaysia =_=) so we went everywhere by MRT and bus.

And so our first stop was Bugis Street. The place where you can find cheap clothes that make you look like a million dollar.

We went straight to shop with our backpack. Not a very good idea.

Imagine walking non stop with a heavy bag while you're only a petite little mouse without an inch of muscle =(
Oh that bag I was holding contained the brand new Charles & Keith bag I bought. It was so nice I couldn't wait to come back to Malaysia to find out if it's cheaper! What if Malaysia doesn't have right?!
Classic yet luxury looking!

When night falls we took a stroll at the Orchard Road looking at the bright lighted buildings.

Later on we went to the crowded and happening Clarke Quay to have a drink. Amazing night scenery there with pretty lights =)

The next day we got up early and off to Sentosa! You must be guessing that we were there for the rides and games, but you were wrong! My main objective was...

VICTORIA'S SECRET!!!!!!!!!!
The first thing we did when we reached Sentosa was searching the directory for the Victoria's Secret outlet. The shop was still closed when we were there. So we waited and waited....

The shop was a tad small, I browsed through the shop in a short 15 minutes. But I made a few rounds again browsing each and every thing available in the store. But everything is so expensive I can get cheaper online! But I couldn't go home empty handed without anything from Victoria's Secret, so Alvin bought me a cute keychain since I pouted complaining everything is so overpriced =P

SGD38 for this keychain. Alvin converted it to Ringgit Malaysia after we came home to Malaysia, he nearly fainted when he found out he actually paid RM89 for a keychain, hahaha!

Some stupid poses we made while strolling around.

We didn't make it to the Universal Studio =( I wanted to go in so much. But tickets are sold out everyday and we didn't have enough time. But I swear I'll lay my foot there one day!

We then went up to the Merlion look out point. Paid SGD8 each for an entrance ticket but the Merlion look out point was quite a disappointment. The view is nothing to shout about, all I could see was incomplete buildings going through construction and the Merlion's interior is boring. We only spent 10-15 minutes there.

The stupid photographer on duty made me posed like a lion =_=

It started to rain drizzly when we were on top of the Merlion's head. Thank God we brought umbrella!

I thought it was flooding outside Vivo City since there was a big puddle of yellowish water and people were playing in the water like what kids usually do when it is flooding. But Sau Yeen said the water has been there since the opening of Vivo City and it was on purpose. O_o Can't they make the big puddle of water look more attractive? Rather than giving people the impression that it's flooding?

The iconic place of Singapore.

And so we ended our day earlier as planned since our legs were screaming for help. We jetted back to Malaysia at 10pm.

but best friends stay together no matter what!"
