1 for 1 Swensens

Because good things are meant to be shared, here's a one for one swensens sundae voucher for you MR-ians to enjoy. Only can be used for the weekdays this week. I wonder if earthquake is included.. someone can even plan an ice-cream outing if you're free haha. Enjoy :)

To the night cycling people: my friend will only start to upload the images tomorrow because she have night classes to attend today. File size is humongous because you know SLR lah. So expect to wait some time before full set is received. Will ask her to upload on facebook for easier tagging.

Lup Sup Lobang Princess,

Night Cycling Event

To those who are going for the overnight cycling event (Me, lon, ZQ, peng and kel), below are the information that you need.

NIGHT CYCLING
Date: 24th May 08 (Saturday)
Time to meet: 9pm
Place to meet: Bedok MRT Control Station
Things to Bring: Cash (for bike rental and food), Extra set of clothes and soap if you want to bath and clean yourself at ECP after everything (to prevent stinking on the way home).

The bike shop closes at 10pm and opens at 8am. So expect to stay overnight till around morning 8am then we'll take public transport back home.

The route has been planned, me and delon will bring the maps. Basically we'll cycle (if i am not wrong, around 20km), around geylang and esplanade area then we'll stop by a few recommended eateries to makan. We will ensure that we meet with all safety precautions etc.

Okay, see you all then :)

Proposed Outing

I'm proposing an outing. It's Man Utd vs Chelsea (Champions League Final). Never did we watched a single soccer match together before, so let's make history now. Be it you are a soccer fanatic, join us.

Meeting Details
Date: 22nd May 2008
Venue: Plaza Singapura
Time: 12am

Things we can do while waiting for the match
1. Watch a movie.
2. Play pool.
3. Go drinking
4. Supper
5. NOTHING!

Match Details
Date: 22nd May 2008
Time: 2.30am to 5am (if there's extra time or even penalty shootout, the whole match would be possibly be dragged till 6am)
Teams: Man Utd VS Chelsea
Compeition: Champions League Final

Match Watching Details
Venue: The Alps Cafe (http://www.alpscafe-sg.com/)
Location: Prinsep Street (Opposite Paradiz Centre)

As it's a weekday, i've planned to meet before the last bus, therefore, that explains that we have to meet at that time. Can't possibily meet after 12am, less those who's driving of course.
And again, as it's a weekday, there's no NightRider but perhaps Taxi all around.

Another thing to note, i might want to reach there say, 2am in order to ensure we have seats! You won't want to search for a place when the match has started, at the very least, that's what i hate and don't want to happen because my team's there playing and yet i'm not watching?

Last thing to note, if we were to watch a movie, i would suggest meeting earlier so that it won't eat into our intended match watching time.

TAG YOUR ATTENDANCE AT YOUR TAGBOARD AND THOSE WHOSE NAME ARE BEING TAGGED, CAN SHUXIA OR PENG (FREQUENT MIXED RICE VISITOR) HELP TO POST IT BELOW HERE. MANY THANKS.

1. Kelvin
2. Delon (Cannot go because next day got class)
3. Xia (Don't mind going if the rest are going as well! :)
4: Peng (just do it!)

To Peeps interested in betting, what's more exciting than watching a match when you know you have place a bet on it. I'll be helping you guys to place the precious bet. Hope you HUAT (provided you are at loggerheads with me). Below odds are as of 12.04pm, 18 May 2008. For the updated current odds, go to (http://www.singaporepools.com.sg/Sports?page=display_details&type=all&match=0501). Call/sms and let me know what you want to bet. Many thanks. By either this evening or tommorrow afternoon please.

F&B Director

CYCLING ROUTE

after studying route other ppl take and our requirements and also playing with google earth (its really fun) and street directory. i roughly came up with a route, hopfully all these careful planing will lead to a smooth trip and not : " WTF we are suppose to be on that flyover, how come we are under it, now how."

there will be lots of urban roads, which i reckon most comes with walking path, in the case theres no urban path, we will have to ride on the road itself. In such conditions we have to be extremely cautious about traffic around us. even though it will be late in the night, the area we are going are quite famous for NITE ACTIVITY*cough geylang* so i expect huge traffic in that area, both human n vehicle. in such conjested area, we will follow traffic flow and rules.

In the event of unexpected route diversion, eg. nicoll highway collapse. if we are not hurt or aniting, we will contact authority and remain calm. Jking, route diversion as in the road doesnt link, den we will take a break, examine the map n figure a way out :D. so much for crapping i present to you:

*with special thanks to xia for tediously jion all the different map parts with photoshop


OPERATIONAL TOO WILL ROUTE

Google earth version with REALISTIC blueprint!


Street directory version with all the detail rd

Opening Your Luggage the Unconventional Way

Someone happened to send me this video on how to open your luggage if you lose your keys, and it really scares me how easy it is to do so.





Now I know why people (like my relatives) complain of missing items when traveling, despite taking extra efforts to lock up their luggages.

If any of you are going to buy new luggages, I'll strongly advise you to get those hard covered ones when extra lock (both the conventional lock and numerical lock). Otherwise, hand carry all valuables and important documents (like Rolex, LV, Gucci, PSP, Lappie, MP3).

Yours Truly,
Mildred

I was looking around for demonstration of the mambo dance moves that are made famous in zouk and this is one of them I have seen.



Super lame especially with that paper bag over the head. Guess the only place we can learn is to go for more mambo sessions! And all drinks are 1 for 1 before 12.

Bangkok Itinerary

PHEW! I finally finished planning the bangkok itnerary. So much more challenging than Phuket because there's so many different opening hours, opening days etc to look out for. Basically I have covered almost all the places that most people recommended. At least I tried to.

Kel, if you don't mind and think the planning is fine, you may also want to follow my humble itinerary by just playing around with the days to fit your flight :)

FRESH FROM THE OVEN :
Mixed Rice Bangkok Itinerary


Have sent a copy of this to your emails as well. I am still compiling the information on all the specific places and locations, that one needs a lot more work because I still have 2 and half more fourms to refer to (with 200+ pages in each of them, -_-). But at least the most important itinerary is out already! =)

Do feel free to feedback if you feel that there should be changes made, Thank yous all. Planning all these makes me itch to just fly now.

pat on the back,
xia

Event Notice: Mambo

ZQ cannot make it on the 21st May, Kel cannot make it on 7th and 14th May. Wah, how like that. Can we fix Zouk next Wed, still. Kel, we meet up some other day when you are out? You plan an outing for a day when you are out can can? *sorries* (hint: NIGHT CYCLING + Food Hunt!)

Sads, it's so hard to plan an outing with full attendance. Can't wait for all you army guys to ORD. Sorry if I cannot accomodate everyone, already tried my best to plan :(

DATE: 28th May 08 (WED)
PLACE: 7pm at TIONG BAHRU MRT (Dinner then Zouk) Sorry for changing so many times.

Confirmed Attendees: Xia, Lon, Peng and ZQ. Mil, need your reply. As for Yilin, sighs will ask again.

Anyways, I'm in the midst of planning the Bangkok Itinerary. Give me another 2 weeks, I'll try to get it done. After that, I will send to you guys and let me know if you want any changes to be done. Meanwhile, if you have any places that you DIE DIE must go in BKK, say it now.

ps: Layout changed! (duh.)
