Hard Rockin

Saturday 13 June 09

Had a good healthy day by the pool with Carolynn before heading to the Ipoh hor fun shop down the road with the boys. Khang said he'll paint me my birthday pressie so we headed to the art supply shop to get him a canvas and some paint. Quite a big canvas was bought so Khang (he's such a sweetie) would be pretty occupied soon.

Henry will be playing at Ol' Skool later in the night and I really wanted to go but Ivan wasn't too keen on heading there. Geoff & Diana asked us to go to Hard Rock to celebrate Ivan's belated birthday so we headed there instead. Geoff bought him a pair of luxuriously comfy Onitsuka Tiger that was designed for the Mini collection. Nice!

Funky Onitsuka Tiger

Hard Rock just renovated their premises. Was quite alright except I didn't quite agree with the dinner tables taking up the majority of the space. What a waste of dancing area and it's not very conducive for socialising. We parked ourselves and our Absolut at the bar nearer to the dance floor.

Our vodka bottle

As expected, the club was mainly filled with matsys (quite hunky but don think most were straight). Girls weren't that great. People quality has definitely dropped (maybe I'm one of them too? :P) There was this chinese girl that was doing some sotong moves on the dance floor. Why can't chinese people dance? That's what you get when you give a chinese girl too much to drink. At least it was entertaining.

Managed to have fun twirling and dancing the night away. Finished our bottle and headed back to DP for some maggie mee goreng. Avoided the road blocks. Traffic qi in effect hehe.

Day of Launches

Friday 12 June 2009

I attended the ASUS Eee PC launch in the afternoon as I was interested in getting a sleek little netbook for myself. Was hoping for a Media discount of sorts. I'm hooked. Please, please come back to me with a good discount.

Did some exercise by walking all around Curve, Ikea & Ikano in search of a digital weighing scale. Did you know the scales cost bout RM150 or so??? I know the normal ones cost RM19.90 at Watsons so I didn't expect the digital version to cost so much! Found a nice one at Fitness Concept but decided to hold on to see if I could get one at a cheaper price.

Rushed off to Deep's house cause he said the Solution Vodka launch (Russian vodka) starts at 7pm. Was me, Deep, Max, Henry, Khang and Farah as the driver in her lovely spacious Toyota Rush.

Arrived at 7.30pm after enduring the friday jam to town. Venue was at Le Blanc at Heritage Row. Was deserted when we got there so we created our own party first. Drinks were on the house so no issues there.

They had Orange, Lemon, Original and Peppermint flavour. Lemon & orange are nice. Can't really taste the original but peppermint sucked. And that was the bottle they gave away. Vodka goes down smooth- like all Russian ones do.

Party was alright.. they had a hip hop show & all. Been a long time since I grooved to hip hop. We left the club early.. at midnight! cause we started early. Ben followed us back cause he got ditched by his colleague.

After party at Deep's where he treated us to his delicious maggie mee. Good quiet night with good friends without much drama.
