Velvet Night Out.
had a great night last night.
got some free invite to Velvet…
finals of the Heineken DJ competition thingy…
i went alone. much to the wonder of a few of my frens…
but i wanna try clubbing alone, and see what it could bring for me.
i reached Velvet early. Maybe an hour too early.
but i placed myself right beside the dancefloor,
at a corner facing the DJ console… 
then i waited. alone. watching the place SLOWLY fill up.
and wondering when someone would come and share my table w me.
then this guy finally asked, together w 2 of his friends…
turned out he works in MTV Mobile,
under my old big boss (Lee Cheok Yew)…
and he’s some happening marketing cum PR guy…
so i made myself some new frens!
they were frenly and offered me drinks also,
which i couldn’t resist…
so i drank with them the Cocoa Haze,
mixed from vodka, peach cooler, apple schnapp…
nice, light drink… 
~~~
and vodka redbull…
i tried lychee martini finally… YUM!! i like!
know a girl named Hui-something, din manage to get her number.
she’s a lawyer. a boozehead. very nice and frenly girl.
chatty, very chatty.
nickey. chio asian looking babe hailing from shanghai.
not cheena at all, and is a student from lasalle.
she dance very well indeed! got the attention of al the gwailohs!
ivy. hip party girl. very friendly and not as wild as nickey.
student in MDIS, and jus lives across the street from Zouk!
a little more reserved, but seemingly more sincere.
danny. the mtv mobile guy. UBER frenly n UBER party head.
will be at Zouk almost every Friday night. WHEE!!!
he can sign me in to Velvet next time. >:)
another guy whom din appear to be too frenly.
works with WKRZ. he’s into house music, so he’s in his element!
these few ppl liked the 1st DJ Feng better,
he plays deep house and more groovy tunes…
the other DJ Mervin (i think) plays hard house, n tribal-tech…
what Singaporeans usually like…
so no prizes for guessing who won.
guess deep house n disco-influenced dance music
is still a very niche market huh.
look at the crowd at the Global Underground arena,
and compare w those at Velvet Underground arena at Zoukout.
YAY! new cheongster frens!
but i broke nehhh… how to be able to tahan???
then on my way out i met into Mervyn n Steven.
used to be my colleagues at Mediasucks.
Mervyn is now doing Advertising and Promotions with Europa grp.
so see when got cheonging trips, can call him!!!
Steven is doing retail with Billabong n some other surfer wear.
so next time if i wanna buy beachy-wear – can call him!
SHIOK!
wheee, then i went with them to Zouk,
and witnessed for myself the plight of Mambo Jumbo nights.
HORROR HORROR.
synchronised actions. perfect lip-synching to RETRO, TOP 40 tracks.
not to mention there were a couple of transvetites,
and horrifying gay men who acted like DIVAS and action many many!
URGHHHHHH… … pukology…
famous DJs, Christian Smith and Tiesto marvelled at the sight before them.
they were standing right beside us.
and i bet they got some negative culture shock.
it’s like the ah bengs doing their kungfu-dance fusion moves.
we feasted our eyes on a snogging couple too…
HORROR HORROR.
but pure entertainment.
Yes i am a clubbing snob u may call me.
but i like the music, the crowd, and the atmosphere of Velvet.
no doubt about that.
the giant Keith Haring installation.
the Andy Warhol rendition of The Scream.
the Phillipe Starck seats and the luminous bar counter.
i like… … …
guess cheonging alone has it’s benefits.
u’ll have more of a chance to blend into another grp of ppl.
if not we’ll always just mingle among our own frens ma…
all in all, i had great fun last night.
oh, and did i mention this long-haired girl came up to me and said,
“You are very hot!” OMG OMG.
this happened on the dance floor.
and she proceeded to dance dirty (sort of) and rub up against me.
WOAH, i was flattered, and a little embarrassed.
but i played along oso la…
then i went off with my new-found frens, she stayed on e dancefloor.
hmm, i kena hit on by a char bor sial… XP
Billzzzzzzzz.

i remembered running less than 5% of the track
and walking the rest of the way when i was in sec sch.
now i actually jogged the whole length of it?!
omg omg…
but i felt powerful after the jog.
POWWEEEEERRRRRFOOOLLL….

with a couple of girls whom he gotta know from sports club in TP.

Juliah, “Lenny”, Josephine…
and a Juliah n Jo oso quite cheongster…
so now i think i would have some new clubbing mates liao…
ngyak ngyak ngyak…
go dance n lose flab!
sinfully bought a Hed Kandi compilation cd again…
urgh urgh… but i could never resist a great Deep House cd…
packaged with a wonderful Jason Brooks illustration,
of a babe with pouty lips and skinny figure…
how to resist?
was busy contemplating if i shld go to Centro w my sec sch fren…
thinking abt it the whole day.
but the buying of the cd confirmed my choice…
no clubbing for me!
yeap and anyway been drinking a little too much recently…
so… jus rest well is what i shld do.
will DEFINITELY go club on the long Deepavali weekend…
and of course harryass’s yatch (which he might be renting) for his BD…
YAY! a night of great music n alcohol under the stars,
in e middle of nowhere, dousing myself in e night sea breeze…
ahz… this could be heaven…
and of course. Halloween. >:)
Twilight Samurai.
yay! the screening of Twilight Samurai was incredible!
got after-show entertainment!~
some dumbass uncle keeeeeeep talking n talking during the show.
AND the worse is at the climax, the most dramamama part of the movie,
where the story would conclude, HE GOT LOUDER.
then our dear fwen, auranoir shouted across,
“you down there, shuddup la!”
*then the guy started cursing, swearing, threatening, grumbling…
louder and louder and getting even more vulgar-er…*
then cloverz said, “shuddup laaa…”
and the above statement marked by asterisks
continued throughout the rest of the show…
spoiling ALL our moods, and pissing everyone in e theatre off…
when the lights came on,
some guy stood up and threw something at the mindless uncle…
FWAH… there goes the sparks and the middle fingers and F-words…
INTERESTING! (i shld have clapped loudly and cheered)
auranoir followed suit and F-ed the old bugger verbally…
complete with fingers n stuff…
tt sent me laughing incredulously outta da cinema…
WOOHOOO!!!
happening boy…
i guess the uncle shld have picked a noisier show
so he can talk during e show.
u know, all the car crashes and gun fights are noisy enough to cover up his voice… >:P
NOT during a poignant, introspective movie like Twilight Samurai?!
WTF WTF…
really brainless twit this uncle is.
ok enough of dumbass story-telling on my part here…
but the show was not bad – pacing was good, development too…
but my mind did wander a little during the show.
but nice to lose urself in another world.
lose yourself in a completely different culture,
it’s why i love movies.
during the few hrs in the cinema,
u allow urself to be brought into another person’s realm,
absorbing the mood and atmosphere…
perfect escapist heaven, dun u think?
Needing Closure.
i need closure.
on something i don’t wanna mention.
on someone i don’t wanna reveal.
i need closure.
no closure, no me, no more.
and it’s got nothing to do with what i wrote in the prev post.
Depression.
mood: depressed
after months and months of anticipation for the addition of my little room,
after planning n getting all hot and bothered :X over the decor.
my mum tells me we might be moving away very soon.
where to?
i dunno, but…
i think most probably some place where i can’t have my own space still.
and i’m going crazy, i want my own room.
where i can call my haven, sanctuary, hideout, bla bla bla…
where i can decorate with all my favorite things…
hanging retro curtains, painting the walls with retro designs,
and be able to hide somewhere n use e comp,
n not disturbing my mama and stuff…
why can’t i have my own space?
why i always can’t have what i want? it’s just a little request?
alright if we are moving, i am NOT going to pay for any utility bills.
my brother can pay all of it.
mood: still depressed. haven felt like crying in months. but now i do.
Movie Gaaaaalore.
Muahahaah…
watched 28 days later at ricky’s house with a couple of u guys…
fun trip…
but seriously (no offence to ricky)
i would still prefer to watch the show in a cinema….
but thank you jialin for borrowing the DVD,
and ricky for being so tolerant of the mess we made with the KFC,
and thanks guys for being soooooo…
full of shit. hahaaha no la…
jus tt we all talk a little too much,
maybe tt’s why din catch the essence of the story n stuff much…
dun u think???
ok next suggested movie is Twilight Samurai.
award-winning old skool Japanese warlord bla bla bla…
some
and of course. Kill Bill opening 23 Oct!
any takers?
Shop shop shop.
YAY! went shopping alone today…
irritated the hell outta the girls
(pretty girls wearing black, and serving the customers coffee or milo…)
working at That CD Shop located at Pacific Plaza…
there i was, bobbing my head to this $44.90 CD (deep house – MY FAVE!),
and a pile of more CDs,
and bought nothing… they bugged me a great deal…
“It’s limited edition! Only 500 sets worldwide! Well worth the money!”
wanted to buy this other cheap Ministry Of Sound one,
but turn out not very nice leehhhhhh…
and so, i sadly, malu-edly, meekly, politely declined…
shrugging my shoulders, and left mumbling to myself, “$44.90?!”
i spent the money on 3 tee shirts instead
(the other levels in far east got alot of new little shops
with not-so-common designs… NICE…).
i can always download those music!
*looks away with tears in my eyes*
OHHHH! *agony agony agony*
i remembered there had been one of those emails flying ard,
that u have to fill in some questions about yourself,
and forward it to ur frens… let them know u betta!
usually are boring favorite food shit,
but there’s one i remembered well…
“where would you choose to max out your credit card?”
i was stumped by this one man…
just gave some crappy answer…
now i know where i want to max out my credit card -
the dance and lounge section of That CD Shop.
maybe i can do the italian job on the 2nd level
- the rack can all go down! MOahahahahaha…
