Maxim trade party 16 Sep
Went to attend (or mainly help-out)
Maxim traders party at Rouge. left teh office during lunch time to go there to help out.
Heh heh, we took a long time to have lunch.
Went to this
Serene Centre ( along adam rd, b4 turn into Bk timah rd) to have main meal at the
Black Canyon . I ate the American fried rice, which other ate the green curry, Quite funny when it's logo look like an outback America franchise, it serves fusion food, like my colleague who ordered this spagetti in green curry sauce.
According to my colleagues, though the green curry doesn't look spicy and it seems diluted, it is very very hot.
Then went to have 'dessert' at
Island Creamery, just a few shops away, . OOOOOh, they have nice mudpie and unique ice cream flavours. we ordered a scoop of horlicks ice cream, teh-tarik ice cream, chendol ice-cream and reverse oreo ice cream, with a big slice of mudpie. emmmhhhh,Ice-cream tasted so yummy. I like the teh-tarik ice cream the most.
Together with D., we packed arodn 500 goodie bags for teh guests. Luckily the small items were redemned in a way where they have to present the coupons to the Maxim girls (models). So we only need to slot in a coupon and the copy of Singapore Maxim into the goodie bag.
Party started from 7-10pm. and I helped out at the counter from 7-9pm. lots of gate-crashers and cheapo people. only our RSPV list, less than 100 confrimed turning up. Yet we had more than 400 guests. there were lots of cases where one people bring in lots of friends.
Drinks serve on the house were Chiva (whisky) shots and a cocktail called "Chivas Maxim" -- a drink specially concocted for the nite. There were two version, one is chiva with lime. one is Chiva with lime plus some scotch whisky (that taste weird).
Shall i say that lucky I was on duty, or else I would be drunk. for i only get to drink 2 glasses after my work. Was told that a few of our colleagues were drunk, one gotta be carried out ofter she concussed, and two got into a fight. Apparently, this Chiva is quite potent, a guy immediately turn red after taking a double-shot.
Anyway, my group and i stick to our selves an din mixed around with teh trade people ( no point lah). We went to take our "Magazine cover photo" at the Canon booth where they were promoting the photo printers. those interested get to stand in front of this big magazine cover, and have yr pic taken by the canon digital camera and collect yr photo prints from the new small photo printers. We jokingly asked for male models uinstead of the female Maxim girl, and our good colleague really help to arrange for two male models to take pic with 5 of us .
Special request woah. And i gotta stand beside one model.
Anyway, saw a few things which really make us shake heads. Like ppl from top management really like dun care abt their image, grab every opportunities to be close with the models. Hai.......
Guys......
