You just have to love partying with me!

The day i've been waiting for is finally here when Darius arrived on 13th of May. Parties were planned for the week. First, was Alley Bar for the Choya Green Party where we had some Choya Martinis garnished with Japanese Plum. Those are really yummy, to the point where you don't even know you're drinking alcohol! Upon arriving at the party, we were given some masquerade masks to put on and boy do the guys look gay in it!

The party ended at 10.30pm and we headed up to one of my favourite chill-out place - No. 5 Emerald Hill. The 1-for-1 martinis promo after 9pm is one of the best deals in town i must say. We had some delicious Lychee Martinis and curious Darius suddenly decided to order a dry Vodka Martini...wrong choice...Knowing No.5 uses 50ml pours instead of the 30ml we Asians are used to, the Martini tasted like we were drinking Vodka straight up! We struggled to finish it for at least half an hour and by then we were slightly 'happy' if you know what i mean. We finished off with another pair of Lychee Martini before heading off to Butter Factory to wash down the pungent taste of the ever-so-strong Vodka Martini. Unfortunately, Butter Factory was full of 'kids' on a Wednesday night but we still managed to satisfy ourselves with more drinks! Funny thing was, we ordered 2 glasses of Rum and Coke during their 2-for-1 promo, got 2 more glasses foc and while waiting for the bill, received a full jug for free! Basically we paid about $26 for 4 glasses and a jug! No wonder we got slightly wasted that night and shoved down some sinful banana prata with chocolate at Spize. Ewww...the calories.. but it was his first prata in almost 2 years!

Thursday was just a chilled out day when Darius came looking for me at the Trade Fair where we had some free flow of Hoegaarden and Stella Artois. After 4 beers, he confessed he felt a little tipsy... Hello?? What kinda German is that ;) Thursday was pretty chilled out though and we joined Anthony, Gio, Rouslan, Priya, Mike and Ryan for some Chilli Crab.

The mayhem continued on Friday with John Langan's Elegantly Wasted party at House where we had some Belvedere Cocktails. Unfortunately, the cocktails actually taste more like juice but the good crowd made up for it.

As usual these days, the night ended up at Butter Factory again!Somehow, we had too much Vodka Redbull and Darius did not want to leave even after the party was over so we went with Stefan to Home Club which unfortunately was closed by then! That left us with no other choice than to end up at Living Room... a whore-filled place. Good thing we did not stay there for long as every white guy in there probably thought i was a working girl.

I had some pre-game at my place the day after with Hartaz and Darius where Priya brought along some Absinthe and Grey Goose.. oops!

Guess where we were headed after pre-gaming...Butter Factory! Poor Darius who was visiting had to see the same club 3 times in a week! What can i say it's the best club right now and we were meeting up with Karen who came to visit from Scotland.






This time, i got really really wasted and ended up falling asleep at Niqqi's Cheese Prata all the way at Clementi for old times sake when we used to study at NUS.

Degeneratism 101

Well…

As everyone can see, Caryn’s already been super busy updating the blog.

While I’d really like to have had something up before now, extenuating (alcohol related) circumstances have prevented me from putting up my first post until now.

So… what DID go on last weekend?

We started off with Estelle’s playboy party, which had a decent turnout. The party itself at the Sail was entertaining (in its own way), though I’d have to say my ears bled a little from how loud the music was.

Then again, a little bit of noise shouldn’t be a problem when one’s chugging down a bottle or two of Grey Goose.

I do have to say though, I was expecting far more cute girls in skimpy outfits to show up. There were way too many clothes and way too few girls!

It was a pretty chilled out way to begin the weekend though, especially considering how quickly things spiraled out of control.

After a little (well, two hour) detour to the Tanglin Club for cheap drinks, I followed everyone up at Butter Factory, where just about everyone that was at the party seemed to be drunk past the point of no return.

It’s around this point that we see our other favorite protagonist, Caryn, looking dazed and confused after way too much liquor.

Butter was packed and entertaining as usual, and the crowd was pretty decent. I couldn’t really tell you how the music was though, considering the toxic mix of whiskey, tequila, jagermeister and vodka that my poor liver was trying to process.

Ah… but I wish that was the end of the night. While the other soldiers decided to go home and get some rest, a few of us decided to have a post-clubbing poker game.

That was not a good idea.

I guess it wouldn’t have been so bad if we had stopped drinking while we played, but who the hell does that? If you’re going to push through the morning, you may as well drink! Like the geniuses that we were, me and Danny (a good friend who seems to always be around when I get myself into entertaining trouble), busted out a bit more booze to get things rolling.

It was only seven hours, two McDonalds deliveries and a whole lot of poker played later that we realized it was 2 pm.

The rest of the weekend developed in a normal (albeit uninteresting) manner. After getting three hours of sleep, Saturday was spent at Supper Club and Attica, where once again, there was far too much vodka and tequila, and way too little sanity. On a side note, we found out that Balcony bar now has a closing time?! What the fuck? Where the fuck am I supposed to drink after all the clubs close???

You’d imagine that two such nights would be enough for a human being… But think again. I can’t go into details about what went on Sunday, but suffice to say it was rife with more entertainment and drinking.

Now I look forward to a week of recovery…

Shameless plug of the day: So… anyone got a card game they want to invite me to?
