Finally...after weeks of work...I got some time to blog. Of course I got to update with this cool party that Amex threw. It was the re-launch party of their Platinum card at Sentosa. Quite a cool set up actually. It was down on the beach in Sentosa next to Cafe Del Mar. When I swung in, I was whisked off to the VIP section and drink in hand. Caught up with my old friend Glenn Ong and his lovely wife Jamie, reconnected with my old school mate Felix, Derek Tan who just picked up his new F430 Ferari which is totally happening.... Stephanie, Wong Li Lin (her husband Alan Wu was hosting)......and happily indulged in their signature drink, Pure Platinum. One thing that does stick in my head was the food. It was totally fantastic!!!! The highlight of the entertainment for me was the set with DJ Flame and Maniam. Way cooooool!!! They must have spent a bomb on catering which was well worth it! Kudos guys!! Actually, this new position for Amex is quite interesting, it gives you quite a few interesting and unusual perks like you own Q at clubs like MoS and one-4-one on house pour's all night! Cool!!! Anyway....gotta go get me one soon to keep financing my nites out on the town!!! Hahaha! Well...lucky I got a real full time job now then!

We are the Champs!!!

Oh Yeah! The truth is out and while one never wants to win a championship due to a disqualification, a win is a win irregardless. McLaren made a mistake and paid the ultimate price. While the debates will rage long into the future as to what was fair and was the penalty too much or too litte...if the drivers should have had some form of punishment...but in the end....Ferrari claims their Constructors Title! Forza Ferrari!!! More updates to come shortly especially on the Ferrari Owner's Club local drive where Royston and me WON!!!! Oh happy day...or wonderful nite out on the town!!!!!

Then tomorrow is the Jon Ong's birthday at Hard Rock then I am off to the Amex Platinum event....then on Sunday is F1 MONZA!!!! Much to my joy I saw on the news today that McLaren has been fined $50K for some illegal gearbox modification....Ha! Serves them right....steal our secrets then get caught!!! Oh well....for all of you guys that got invites to this Amex party but don't quite know where it is....I have stuck a map here to help you get your nite out on the town (rather...the beach) before you get lost!!! Here's to a good weekend after my first week at work on my new job.....and for those who are wondering what I mean.....its only a initial reduction on my nights out on the town weekdays...but the potential of even BIGGER nites out in the near future! Stay tuned!!!

L.I.V.E. Platinum

Hot of the press!!!! Looks like this Amex party is gonna be the coolest thing this side of a ice cream cone!!! Really am looking forward to a big nite out on the town this weekend (though technically it is NOT going to be IN town but out on DA BEACH!!!). I am currently seeking applicants who may want to drive me and a posse of buxom beauties there in their fast Ferrari's....but as yet, no applicants have stepped forward.....probablly they haven't got their Amex Platinum card yet. (That being said, neither do I but...I have the invites!!!) Just in case you guys are curious to know more about the party, you can check out their website....http://www.americanexpress.com/sg/campaigns/liveplatinum/index.shtml for more details! Hope to catch the usual suspects there!!!

F1 Istabul @ the new Maserati Showroom

Its my very own Super Sunday.....and in case you guys don't know what I mean....its time for us to gather once again to catch the F1. This time Hong Seh kindly hosted us at their new showroom at the Copthorne Waterfront Hotel. We anticipated this not too have that big a turn out but as with all Ferrari events, you always have to expect the unexpected and the turn out was quite good! Apart from Edward and Anastasia, Caroline, Charmaine and Felicia....we also had Arthur and friends as well as Royston who came straight down from a long ride from Malaysia! Of course we were all extactic that in the end we whooooped McLaren's rear end with Massa and Raikkonen coming in first and second with Alonso pulling in third. Poor Hamilton had a run of bad luck with a tyre blow out leaving him fifth I think and him finally learning that its not going to always be smooth sailing. I wonder what will come along next year between Alonso and Hamilton....I really doubt that McLaren can hold two of these boys in the same squad for much longer. A totally great nite out on the town with a result that we were all happy with!!!!

Mercedes Gala Charity Dinner

Saturday rolls around again and the big party to be at is in the Shangri-La. Mercedes Benz is throwing their annual charity Gala Dinner in aid of MILK (Mainly I Love Kids to those of you not in the know....). Being guest of Julian who was part of the sponsors with their excellent range from Giorgio Ferrari, it was a night out on the town with Tattinger, Dalmore, cigars and very cool cars. Of course there where quite a few familiar faces in the house, Giorgio himself, Alex Yeo who let them his classic Mercades Benz.....and after that we all decided to rock on down to MoS where I bumpped into Step and Belle, Bobby as well as a bunch of his friends who were all ACS boys but many generations down.....my good friend Marcus and James who are planningt buy a Azimuth as well! A big enough night...but I am still looking forward to watching Ferrari kick McLaren's butt in Istanbul Park the next day....although I enjoyed the hospitality of Mercades. Hahahaha!

Yuki's Birthday

Was invited to my fav socialite and resident hot mama's big birthday bash Yuki Lange last Friday. Her very cool and large pad down in Chatsworth even has a pin ball machine in the living room!!!! Yuki had invited more than a few friends that we all mutually knew for dinner. Very excellent food....150 bottles of champagne.....and a guest list that the Tatler would be proud of! Of course in full attendance was Phillip from Tatler and good friend Benedict Goh, our very own resident pro-driver, Hafiz Koh who came with Christina Liang...of course we had a long bevy of lovely ladies...Felicia, Ning, Jamie, Lyndnn and a long list of other rich and famous. The company was certainly excellent and the conversation, well.......interesting to say the least. Anyway...to cap a excellent nite out on the town, we headed to check out my first Friday at Thumper where we bumpped into Boon and Alexis, Patrick, Edwin, KC and his lady love. The start of what I am sure is gonna be a great weekend!

Something cool this way comes......

A few weeks ago I heard rumbles of a very interesting party that is supposed to take place on 8 Sep 2007....and of course I had to make it my business to get myself a few invites! Well...on the eve of a new turn in my life.......the secret is out. Amex has come up with a plan for something very different. A series of parties and events for the very elite. And the first of them will be held on at the Emerald Hall down on Siloso Beach. Apparently it promises to be quite something out of this world. We got DJ Papp and Morrison in da house....backed up with Angela Flame (I can remember those days of her in Mohd Sultan!!!). Another well loved face that will be there will be my old friend Tabla Maniam. Well well.....I certainly haven't heard his beats in quite a while and I am certainly looking forward to a good nite out on the town indeed! Well....brace yourself folks......looks like the party continues with Amex joining in the purveyors of fun soon! The word is out....and do make sure you are amongst the very elite that get the invites! Looks like this weekend is gonna be a real busy one......APEC, Tempus, Jonny's Birthday....of course L.I.V.E. PLATINUM....Urban Beach Party......I hope my liver can last!

LUSH Party with Chivas!

Thats right...how could I miss this one! It was the Lush party sponsored by my great boys from Chivas and it was a blast! We were back at the National Museum in Muse Bar for this one and as you would expect, with all the Chivas flowing, I had a great time! Jeremy and Elaina were there of course together with Chris Ho, Boon's partner from Indonesia Satia,....and of course Bernard and more of the usual suspects! They had a really interesting giant size Martini glass of vodka jelly's and finger food that was quite good! Must say a big thank you to Brandon for his hospitality! Oh...also must really try keep the booze intake in check though....had a splitting headache from a big nite out on the town...as usual!!! (Hmmm...I think I have said this repeatedly before though......oh well....CHEERS!!!)

Solitaire Nite @ Novus

Solitaire Magazine had their anniversary party at Novus Restuarant and Bar on a Tuesday nite out on the town so Felicia and myself headed down to check it out. Was quite a interesting little party with a rather interesting crowd of mainly industry people. Caught Christina Liang there together with Sulian and Julian as well as connected with Maxime Labey who has now moved to Chopard from Jager. The party had a disctinct lack of food so we hooked up with Rosemary and headed to Timbre to catch up with our new partner Danny and enjoy their excellent pizza's! YUMMMMM!
Just in case you guys think all I do is have a life after the sun goes down, I actually do stuff in the day too! Alvin had invited me to participate in the SilkAir Monopoly Challenge so off I went on a Sat afternoon to play a game I haven't touched in more than 15 years! Well...playing against 3 young bucks was sure interesting....I found out that some of them play it day and night online actually...but of course, you cannot beat age and experience over being young and energetic and I happily kicked ass! Actually, I came in 10th out of the 1000 participants on the heats so I was invited back the next day to compete against the top 16! Well...it sure was exciting as we were told all 16 of us were assured of winning a pair of tickets to somewhere! Well...had to drag my ass down to Ngee Ann at 10 am for a 12.30 heat.....and played on a board that was 50 m X 50 m!!! Was quite fun throwing the huge dice!! Hahahaha! I got off to a quick start bagging the 3 purples and building first....but unfortuantely didn't sitck to my game plan to get the reds or yellow's and ended up hitting 2 red hotels that knocked me out of the game. Oh well...at least I got a pair of tickets to Cebu!!! Overall a good day that ended up at night out on the town!!

Conrad's Birthday

What can I say about Conrad but he is sure DA MAN! When he throws a party everyone turns up! And now he is involved with this interesting Lychee Vodka thing with Shannon, it even gets more interesting! As expected the whole tribe turned up, Amanda before she left for Europe, David Furman-Lim...forgot Christabelle Campbell's name who is our 3rd runner up in Miss World (I am still wondering how I got to know her from way back when....) Belle, Andrea Fonseka...and alot of booze! Of course we moved to MoS later where we caught up with Michael and Stanley who introduced me to their good friend from Hong Kong Lambert who is in a similar business as me and who I am hooking up with! Shawn also turned up.....and it all turned out to be a long long big big nigt out on the town....man...this is getting to be too hard!! Hahahaha!
