Dinner at Vino Vino

Last month on the 25th, we went to another very chic place for dinner. This was Vino Vino along Mohd Sultan Road. The ambience was not too bad, and the food was great. And very very expensive too I think. I didn't pay for it (come to think of it, I seldom had to pay for what I ate!!! Hahaha...)

We had a group of 11 people, and they put us in a corner. I found that a wee bit too squeezy for comfort though. Good thing Tweetie made them remove the partition they had up so that it didn't look like we were hidden right at the back of the restaurant.

That's the menu, and I had the NY Porterhouse Steak (400g!)

Anti-Pasto Platter

Prawn Cocktail Salad

NY Cut Porterhouse Steak

Me & the gigantic portion of steak

Brownie & Vanilla Ice Cream

The red wine they served with the Main Course

A very seductive looking Tweetie!

Michelle is just so cute!

Michelle can't drink, but she's always pictured holding glasses of wine & cocktails... I wonder why... Hmmm...

No idea how come Tweetie looks intoxicated here

The 3 Stooges

After dinner, we crossed the street into one of those pubs. I can't remember what the name of that place was (or rather didn't bother to remember!) It was almost deserted and I was wondering why we even bothered to go catch a drink there. But anyway, Charlie ordered a round of Lychee cocktail thingy for all of us. It was really very very strong. I didn't manage to finish that one.

Mei Chin & Michelle

Tweetie & me

Everyone else was quite exhausted by then, but Charlie, Tweetie, Michelle & me went on to KBox, and sang out hearts out to let some steam out... Unfortunately no pics of us crooning away at this point...

2008 Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix

Wah!!!!!!!!!!!! Ric just told me he has free tix to the Formula 1 Grand Prix!!! And what made me even more surprised was, his boss sponsoring! I'll be damned... I want free tix to the event too!!!

This year's F1 GP with be on 28 September 2008 on a street circuit of public roads around the Marina Bay area. I think it's gonna be a more than 5km long street circuit with very challenging corners and turns. Also the race will be the first held at night in F1 history!

It's gonna be a really exciting event this year. And I want free tix too!!! Erm, if I ask, will anyone give me tix???

Any kind sponsors willing to sponsor me with some free tix to the F1 GP?

Disgusting Sunday lunch

Since it was meant to be a lazy Sunday, we decided to just hop over to Ikea for lunch. Late lunch to be exact. So since there wasn't much of a crowd, we found nice seats at a round table near the windows (window seats, hehehe). It was nice to sit and eat in the sun without perspiring...

As I was enjoying my meatballs & cream of asparagus when this kid, this plump little girl, who's parents were seated at the table behind me, came running by. And guess what she was doing? As she ran towards her parents, she was spraying her saliva all over. Needless to say, her saliva was all over my hand and clothes! Ya, all over me. It was freaking groooossssssss! And you know what? Her parents just kept rooted in their seats even though they knew their daughter's saliva was all over me. All they said to her was "you see... your saliva all over people already..." And that's it!!! They saw me desperately wiping off those gross droplets, but yet they didn't even bother to apologise!

Geez.... I swear I would've walked over and slapped the daylights out of the father and mother. I seriously wanted to do that. The only thing was, I didn't wanna risk hurting & dirtying my hands further. Can't believe that manz! I mean, I can get angry with the kid. But I can't scold her. Children get playful and do all sorts of things rather innocently at times. But it's the bloody parents I'm angry with. They should've set a good example and apologise at the very least on behalf of their daughter lor. But they didn't lor... Can't believe such parents exist. Maybe they came down from some mountain! Damn... Just my luck...

ABALONE PRINCESS... 鲍鱼公主！！！

You guys think I'll stand a chance at becoming the next spokesperson for New Moon Abalone?

Peaceful Lunar New Year

A fairly peaceful Chinese New Year this time. Had to help the dowager prepare renunion dinner. Lots of washing and cutting. Only the 2 of us in the kitchen. The was of course another female in the house, but apparently she never bothered to offer any help... She was probably too haughty. I suspect her fingers might rot upon contact with water! Sigh... I am always the only one willing to lend a hand in the preparations and cleaning. And every year, I am assisgned the task of shredding the radish and carrots. It seems that I'm so patient, and I make very nice long shreds! Therefore, this year is no exception. So Princess Carol's Abalone Yu Sheng was served pre-dinner.

Oh, forgot to mention that there were 2 "worms" that managed to crawl out just as we lifted our chopsticks and stationed ourselves strategically to "Lo Hei"... (-_-)

Anyway, I have been suffering from a very bad allergy problem. Seafood overdosage... Yeah, you read this right, seafood overdosage. I have been leading a fantastically good life. Eating abalone and shark's fin and crabs and prawns and bamboo clams and geoduck and scallops and almost all the treasures of the sea pratically everyday. So as a punishment, I suffered from an outbreak of rash all over my hands... *** CRY***

Well, that has happened before, and will take some time to clear off, so I'm laying off seafood for now.

Didn't do much pictures this year. I was wither busy preparing food, or busy cleaning up, or even busier eating..... I think I must have put on like 3 kg already!!! Anyway, we spotted this cute cat, sleeping in a cosy box...

And I bought this super sweet blush... It's so pretty I doubt I can bear to use it!!!

恭喜发财！！！Happy New Year!!! GONG HEI FATT CHOY!!!

Finally had time to do my hair. Poor me have been working and rushing to the bones (Actually I put on weight because of excessive eating of pineapple tarts and cookies etc etc etc!).

Late yesterday evening, I went to see my stylist, Alan. I told him to do something simple and touch up color. And then I asked him how long it was going to take. His reply was “我要你陪我三个钟头。乖乖的坐在这里，三个钟头。哪里都不可以去！”

I looked like an alien! And that's Alan (in red) in the mirror reflection

So I sat there, for hours... And I meant HOURS! It wasn't 3 hours like he said. It was more than 4 hours!!! Hahaha... Poor me, and my butt! During that 4+ hours, I had rollers and steam and cream in my hair. At the end of it, I emerged with wild curls and red hair. Yes, RED! "Auspicious", he said. *** Fainted ***

But it was really relaxing to sit there and have so many people fuss over my hair. And the hair washes and massages really took the load off my head.

Thks Alan, for staying after hours just to fix my hair. I was the last customer for the day!


And to everyone reading my blog, I wish you all a very Happy, Healthy, Fruitful and Prosperous Lunar New Year!!! 恭喜发财！

我是谁？Who Am I???

很多人都很好奇。一直都在追问，我是谁。常常有人会 email 我，在 blog 这里留言，甚至在 facebook 问到我是不是演员，是不是模特儿，会拍什么戏等等等。

而为什么他们都会这样问呢？

可能偶尔会在某某海外或某某本地杂志上看见我的照片，同时也会在某某大场面上又看见我的出现。有时，到高级餐馆用餐时，又看见我和一大班来头不小的人一起用吃饭， 或去 party 的时候或许又会碰到我。奇怪的是我又经常出国，去很多很多很远很远的地方。。。 。。。

那。。。 我到底是谁？

是做什么的呢？

答案就是。。。 。。。 。。。 。。。

我是格格咯！

要叫我公主也行！哈哈哈。。。开玩笑的啦。。。不过，继续猜吧。。。 。。。

Oh, my Chinese has improved! See I managed to blog in Chinese again, hehehe...
