The Big Two


Round 2 of Boys' night out - feat. Jordon, Viiinz, Mel & me.
Venue: Ministry of Sound
Time: Stamp before 1030pm (haha.. sOooo chEap!)


The theme was Casino style. Party event was celebrating MOS's 2nd yr anniversary. Live band (no comment) and babelicious dancers (wow!) was there to boost the atmosphere!!


We ordered some house pour, followed by jugs of Vodka & finally a shot of Tequila for our virgin clubber, Melvyn.


It was a fun night, as our boys are busy checking out hot babes.. while the other poor boy(s) were grind by aunties, heavy-weight champion & even "muscular" feminine stud. (Puke!)


Alright, let's skip the dirty dancing part~
Here's some photos using my N95 & Mel's SE W850.. ^^





Jeez.. after party, we head down to our regular prata shop & gobble some pratas. Jordon, the food king have ordered 1 egg + 1 plain prata (followed by 1 plate of Indian Rojak) and finished off with 1 Mac' cheeseburger - Scary!!


And the resultant for such carnage...



Requested video for Viiinz (showing off to his Taiwan friends)


Mel, easy on the dance step ^^

The Warlords

Today we went to watch a movie called "The Warlords" at Cathay Cineleisure. Uhh lala~ before entering Cineplex, we encountered some chio xmas's DBS staff giving F.O.C mineral water.. somehow, it tastes better than what we usually bought. (HAHA! wad crap?)


While waiting for the Geylang swimmer, whom wished to be discreet... we ate our lunch at the famous Xing Wang HK Cafe at level 2. Followed by 1hr of OTOT shopping, and then a game of Time Crisis at level 4's CMI arcade.. hmm, at this moment, Laksa spotted Ms Fierce (not my wife alright?!) and faster inform me.. hah! as if she gonna eat me alive inside Cineleisure..


Soon after I wasted 2 tokens, the bigshot G.swimmer arrived. We bought the tixs and went to Takashimaya, Wisma.. finally landed on Starbucks @ LIAT Tower. I didn't know that Starbucks actually sell Cheesefries, amazingly, my G.swimmer friend ordered 1 packet of hot & cheesy cheesefries for me.. - so sweet~!


After our kopi-session, we went down to Borders (not to check out books but bxxbs - HIS' idea). Heehee.. nah, just kidding.. we went to Level 2 Wheelock Place and shop around.. mess around with the iPODs and Transformer, kekee..



Finally we had our dinner @ Taka's B1 MOS Burger, ahhh.. can't believe that all 5 different types of HP straps are all SOLD-OUT!! Darn...
