Singapore Grand Prix 2011 Day 1

A fantastic line-up at this year's Formula One Grand Prix in Singapore meant a trip down was essential.

Luckily we pre-empted this great line-up (knowing how high the standards are in Singapore and what pride they hold in any event that is held there) so we booked our room wayyyyyyy back - like in March!

As a result we got a mad rate at the brand spanking new, uber luxurious and swoon-worthy Fullerton Bay Hotel.

The 'basic' twin we got was right up my street. I LOVE it when interiors combine both comtemporary and classic finishes and designs. There is great usage of wood and glass, with clean lines without leaving you feeling cold. In fact the room was immensely cosy and had fantastic supplies with regards to office, degustation and bathroom accessories.

Vista of the bathroom from the bedroom area.
Alternative view of the bedroom from the bathroom. Kinky? YES. Fortunately there is an electric blind for those of us who are modest with the exposure of our bodies....
Everything you could possibly need in the bathroom - luxurious supplies that leave you wanting for nothing!

Mirrors on mirrors creating a neverending corridor
Guess which was my degustation favourite...
Birds Eye Maple wood EVERYWHERE. *LOVE* And hidden in the tiny desk drawer, full office supplies ranging from highlighter pens to post it notes. Spot the Bose ipod speakers which were particularly important whilst getting ready for the numerous F1 parties... Oh and me and my twin

What a stretch!

So I started this week with a 'To Do' List that is as long as both my arms together (which incidentally from the tip of one middle finger to the other, would equal my height - go google it) and I feel like crap.

Why? Cos of last weekend at Singapore's F1 which was crazy, followed by a week of hectic work which ended up with 2 projects I've been working on for nearly a year actually being CONFIRMED *yeaaaaaahbaybehhhhh*

Rounded up with a 'farewell' Friday night out for two friends returning to China (who will probably be back in 6 weeks >_<) and a Saturday night of hopping.

First to see my fave Salah Wrong play at Daikan... errr Daikanay.... errrr that place on Changkat next to the Green Man. The girls put together a great playlist of 90s tunes - nostalgic to say the least - although I must admit that Clem and I did confess that we didn't recognise a few tunes. Nonetheless it didn't stop us from head-banging and jumping up and down like over grown teenagers. Having said that, quite a large percentage of the crowd looked like they had only just graduated from teenage-hood, so Joyce and I reckoned they were probably hearing these songs for the very first time!

After only one beverage I wished the girls farewell as they bopped their heads on the dance floor and battled the human and vehicular traffic outside making my way to 7ate9 where DJ Nadia holds her newly secured bi-monthly residency. She provided us with such a great sound track - housey, nu disco tunes with a classic and sophisticated vibe that you can jump up and down or simply sway your head to - whatever suits your fancy. This is a great venue for a Saturday night especially if you don't wanna be squashed into a club with sweaty, over enthusiastic peeps, but you also don't wanna be at a lifeless bar - A great in-betweener.

And to top the night off, DJ Nazkimo came along to show DJ Nadia and our brand some love as he came decked in his PopMuseSic 'Piano Keys' tee shirt

*Phew* What an insane but amazing 10 day run I've had. Great work, great news, great friends and so much love. Positivity all the way!
