What a wonderful world...

Busy busy busy... Long post now!

Thursday 28 October 2004: F4, PHD
Decided to go to PHD and tried to convince Ivan to go, but alas common sense and logic prevailed! ;) Went to F4 before the PHD as we got to the city way early. It's been a while since I've been there. Managed to have a quick word with Domique who owns the place. My friends and I used to go there all the time last year. It's a nice place...except for the DAMN STEPS! Anybody who has ever been there will know what I mean!!! :p

Anyways PHD was good, Otek was great, Soul-T was pumping out some good bass and Ben whatevahislastnameis I didn't like that much - too much building up and not actually ending up anywhere!! Then this "guay-loh" with "ho lun dai bor", like airbags hugged me like 3-4 times whilst trying to talk to me - I was like in shock. My friend who saw it said she would hug me and it would take me about 5 seconds to respond and hug back! Lol, anyways nice crowd.

Friday 29 October 2004: Mark's Birthday, Loft
Attended a seminar in the city, which in other words I slept in the back row, recovering from PHD! Boooooring seminar! Was held at Crown Promenade Hotel, so I just grabbed free pens and mints (which came handy later!)

'Networking' drinks were supposed to start at 4:15 after the last seminar, but I found a friend I hadn't seen for ages and we hit the bar at 3.00!! By the time I met my other friends at 6.00 at the Loft I was "happy"! :p I think we drank non-stop until we were kicked out by security at 10.00!! Here are some quotes:

Me: "Andrew, look! *points at Joanie* Fucking Gayvin's cutting my lunch!!"
Andrew: "kekekeke"

Joanie: "I'm getting married, and I'm going to Japan for my honeymoon"
Sam: "Oh ok, congratulations, let me buy you a drink"
(later on)
Sam: "Wah! Joanie lied to me!"

We ended up at Ha Long for dinner after a couple of the guys visited the curb and toilets for a quick detox session. Why do we always end up there? Guess it's because the owner know us now! I mean we were so drunk that half of us left without paying! We were like $17 short and the owner said, don't worry, pay next time! Lucky we scrapped up enough!

Then on the way out I saw some fellow bloggers, and due to me being blur blur on alcohol, I can only remember some of them! I know Gavin was there, with Lynn? Lola? and another girl? Not wanting to embaress myself I quickly fled! :p Sorry guys... next time!

It's funny how the memory works... I hardly remember anything of last night... but bits and pieces have come back! The only thing that doesn't come back is the money in my wallet... or lack thereof!!!

Anyways, a good night! Too bad I didn't bring my camera!

Saturday 30 October 2004: Jessica's Birthday @ Shark Fin
