aiyoyoyo

did you just see the news people ? Nissin cup noodle got into trouble in Japan. Found to have some pesticide inside the noodle and the poor old lady ate it.

Felt her tongue became numb and vomitted. Poor her so unlucky. Gracious, what on earth is manufacturers of food coming to ? It was the China Milk scare, than it pull many products that contain melamine down together. When all thought it was over, this Cup noodle got into another containmination problem. What the hell lar.

Also, many favourite local products like Khong Guan, Hello Kitty biscuits, Peanut biscuits etc all are in the news for the wrong reasons.

Now i don even know what are the food that are safe for consumption, omgoodness. Better stick to foodcourt thesedays... cos you never know what you are eating into your body.

Tk cares.


today morning woke up early in the morning to go school. My IG organised the ALC [ Adventure Learning Center ] which is actually going through those high elements like abseiling etc.

I was kinda disappointed because we only go through like one small part of the whole course. It was seriously no kick, and felt that to wake up in the morning and to 'play' that small section was not just.

Initially i thought we would like complete the whole thing or half of it but we just played one section. Seriously, no kick at all. Than there is this guy who is so good to that girl whom I once used to want to know. So, abit jealous lar, she kinda cute and wanted to make friend with her. But instead she seems closer to this new kid on the block. darn. forget it.

Haiz. hope we would have more area covered if we have the chance to play this playground again. Suddenly think back of my NPCC days where we challenge even bigger ones, so exciting and full of adrenaline rush.

Yawn. *

Tonight out for Jerry Farewell...into the twilight zone, NS. He will be a man finally. lol. All the best bro.





I gonna blog it finally. No photos yet, cos haven receive all of them. Would post in the next post.

Last Wednesday, 08/10/2008, i went out with Jingxuan, her bf, and her friend Ginna. Hmm, all because we wanted to go for the interview for the Borders @ WheelLock. So in the midst of interviewing, her bf clement, had to book in because of his fish up supervisor. Lucky he is able to come out back and join us a few hours later.


During the interview, i also enjoy myself. Hmm. Compare hands! wth! mine is thicker than urs lar. haha. Than after that, walk to MOS Burger to have our lunch. Eat eat eat, left fries cannot eat finish. Guess what ? The girls suggested to play '5-10-15'. All of us evenly kana lar, though i had some experience it before but cannot win leh. darn. than tt jingxuan ah, suggested to have combo fries with chilli and mayo, in the end, she kana. LOL!!!!

So after eating, they went to the nearby isetan market if i am not wrong. Took pictures of real expensive fruits, like 3 apples going for $13 ?... it was also real cold so the girls were like " So cold, but they still want to see-see those biscuits lar, snacks lar " haha i was okay. too bad no jacket to lend them. :< They were super hyper though.

Tuesday, 1241am.

So i am basically blogging about yesterday, the yesterday which just pass 41 mins ago.
As promised in the previous post, i will share the story of how Singapore Sling was created.


Back in the 1900s, Singapore was still under the British rule. Thus, only the rich people such as the Generals in the Army have the financial ability to afford drinks in pubs.

To add on, the alcohol that time was mainly a mix of Gin and Tonic, which is considered too strong for the local ladies. As a result, little local ladies went for the drink. Bemused at how the Generals cannot manage to pick up local girls, the General ask the bartender, and challenge him to come up with a unique cocktail that would attract the local ladies and make them addicted to the drink.

After some time, the bartender came up with Singapore Sling. It was a reddish cocktail. The pineapple juice, Grenadine, Angostura bitters and lime masked the coming sting of the gin and cherry brandy. Thus, the feeling was not immediate but indeed potent. So when the local ladies sip them, it felt refreshing as the fruit was topical, Pineapple with the sweet sweet taste.

One cup after one, they did not know that what they drank was potent alcholic content cocktail. So the Generals managed to stealthily sink the ladies guard and... happy hour man!


YUP! What a good story this drink came from right. Hmmm.


sunshine after the rain.

Thats all!


This happen yesterday.

THE SINGAPORE SLING ORIGINALS.

Alright, back to the topic. So there was also a challenge from the Group to our school. This challenge is that because they are producing this drink in Bottled form, for convenient sake and the quality wise, they want Republic Polytechnic to be part of history. Being in the Marketing IG ( IG = Interest Groups, aka known as CCA in secondary schools ), we are the co-ordinators cum organisers. Our aim is to hold a roadshow in the school, letting them know the product that we are helping to launch.

For participants, they can come out with posters, designs, ads, whatever their mind can think of to market this product. If chosen, they stand to win PS3, PSP, and iPod Nanos.

Going straight into the point, Roy the VP of the IG, Allan the Events In-charge of IG and me, an ordinary member of IG, decided to taste the drink for ourself. Being efficient, Roy made an private appointment to have a taste of the cocktail in Clarke Quay.

Thus, yesterday the three of us met up with Christine, the Head of Marketing of True Heritage Brew at its very own boutique in Clarke quay, block B.

Little do we know that we were so honoured to have the Boss, Designer of The True Heritage Brew with us. POW! Seriously as if were are having a business meeting. Seated outside, we formally introduce ourselves. I like the way we are treated like VIPs from the waiters, the envious look. I cant help but imagine what the waiters are thinking, " Wah such 19-20s teens, how can they be related to the Big Boss ".

Lol. At the wave of hands by the boss, we are served four cups of cocktail, the first picture i posted above. After some time, another handwave bought us another four bottled cocktails.The Boss told us a long story, but to cut short, record has the the a person who can drink the most cups of Singapore Sling only managed 7, and that to mix this cocktail, a very professional bartender could only do it because it is really hard to get that right flavour.

Thus, if you want to try the original POTENT Singapore sling, come down to the boutique at Clarke Quay, Block B. I do not know how much it cost, because its all ON THE HOUSE! haha. The trick is that the kick comes in after you drink them. Hmm, interesting.

I will post the history of how this drink was created in the next post, so if you are interested, stay tuned!

It was probably the once in a lifetime experience to sit down with high flyers at the young age, communicating and discussing the thoughts and ideas to launch the product to the public. So, with that, i end this LONG post.

Sling it Baby!!!
