Happy Birthday !! Marriage Congratulations!! (again)

Went to a lovely birthday/wedding pool party yesterday.. crazy company, salacious setup, fried food (perfect for my mild hangover), great games mixed in with a little macallan's 18 yr, music and 'chips' (refer to above picture)

It was a lovely evening... lots of chitter chatter between people meeting for the first time and amongst friends catching up and making up for lost time...

I found the games particularly enjoyable. There was a bit of everything - general trivia, music, physical challenge and my favourite - the ICE BREAKER

ICE BREAKER = write 3 things about urself on a piece of paper, one of which must be a complete LIE. Everyone will announce their chosen 3 statements and each of us must decipher/gauge/guess which of those statements for each person is the LIE. The person who guesses the most correct lies is obviously the winner.... Lots of laughing followed statements such as

1."I LOVE WOMEN" (frm those who CLEARLY bat for the other team)
2."I'M 21 YEARS OLD"
3."I HAD 10 ORGASMS IN A ROW"
4."I DID NOT HAVE SEX LAST NIGHT"
5."I'M REALLY A MAN"

I cant believe I even managed to do a bit of networking too... my business card case actually came home EMPTY! Let's hope somethng comes of it.

I was somewhat somber, sensible and sleepy last night. Pretty worn out actually and spent the last hour of the evening watching the MEN *EXCHANGE MONEY*... (incidently bringing one of them some luck each time I cut the deck!) My lap companion was of course GUCCI who is just So adorable... I wanted to take him home with me...

It was great seeing Nino, Mui, Ida, Harold, Nefta, Jason, Sheila and Enjoyce again ... memories of Bali ;) (and of course we missed those who couldnt make it...)

Happy Birthday D... You're so blessed to have such a wonderful husband, Gucci, family and friends. And you friends are blessed to have you in return!

fffffffffff***ing upset :'(

was feeling reminiscent of my London life... particularly my London life way back in the 90s. Went to dig out all my old digital photos stored on CD only to find I cant access any of the photos.

NONE.

NADA.

A big fat ZERO.

My life before moving back here in 2003 is all lost!!!!

I'm devastated.....

3 of my favourite things in one day?? Blessed


Long Drive - leaving Singapore and crossing the bridge


Soothing Sunset



Glowing Full Moon

.. yet i'm still missing ..

Crystal Clear Christina

Well well well.. it's been quite a busy time since my last full entry... Let me see...


OUTSIDE SPORE INDDOR STADIUM AND ALL EXCITED TO SEE CHRISTINA!!

Spore was GREAT... chilled the first 2 nights with family and shopping in the day.


LARISSA & LAUREN

Saturday nite ROCKED. Christina Aguilera IS a STAR. An INTERNATIONAL STAR. I was blown away. Everything about the show - the set, the outfits (she changed for every song), the band, the dancers, the circus set-up, the sound quality, the choreography, her beauty (she was radiating and definitely looks better in real life) and of course, HER VOICE. Perfect Control. Perfect Pitch. Perfect Performance. She opened with AINT NO OTHER MAN,


AINT NO OTHER MAN

She followed with most of her big hits, some songs off the current album, current single CANDYMAN, and closed with BEAUTIFUL. OH MOTHER made a good friend of mine cry and brought me clse to tears. Her rendition of HURT was definitely the highlight of the night for me.

OH... did I forget to mention that ths Boogaloo had FRONT ROW SEATS..... yeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrr


Yup I was THIS CLOSE.... awesome :)

TALENT. PURE TALENT. REAL TALENT. wat the hell am i doing...

i miss you
