Stay @ Ritz Carlton

Stayed at Ritz Carlton over the weekend with my honey. I was impressed with their attentive service, sweet personal touch and warm at home feel. The room wasn't as huge as I had hoped it to be but the by the window bathtub was good and offered a splendid skyline. The breakfast was above average as well, it was a relaxing getaway for us though I didn't get to do any official work according to my plan (just pretending to be hardworking and showing that my work is consuming me. Hahaha). I will choose to stay there again.

Priates Of The Caribbean At World's End

Watched "Pirates Of The Caribbean At World's End" last night and I was disappointed with the movie. It was patchy and nowhere as nice and fun as "Dead Man's Chest". The marketing team has definitely drum up the anticipation too much and it killed this movie. Not recommended.

Jordin Sparks - Winner of latest AI contest

When I watched American Idol Finale last night, I felt it was lackluste. The fighting wasn't really close and both finalists weren't really pulling all stops to fight. My verdict? Best vocal goes to Jordin and best performance belongs to Blake. And I am glad that substance was chosen over gimmicky as music is all about longevity. Congrats to Jordin Sparks for being crowned the latest AI winner!

Phantom Of The Opera

Watched "The Phantom Of The Opera" last night with my honey. It was awesome! The props were great, the singing immaculate but the acting lacked some serious oomph. Still, it was worth all the moolah spent.

Worthy Final 4 For AI6




Just saw the news flash for the final 4 for AI6, they are Lakisha, Blake, Melinda & Jordin! It is indeed the most worthy final 4 for this season. Blake is very unique and dares to bring his own music persona onto the songs he perform, he stands out easily among his peers for all 6 seasons but is America ready for such an artiste? The powerhouses of the 3 divas are my favs, and I have secretly harboured the hope of seeing all 3 of them slugging it on the finals night. Jordin Sparks is young and full of potential. Lakisha Jones is feisty but able to tone down when the need arises (I always have a soft spot for plus size powerhouses) and I love big girls who are willing to embrace their sizes and be confident. Melinda Doolittle is such a sweet and humble lady but her innocence demeanour might be translated into fake act if overdone. Still, her voice is the most controlled and impressive among the lot. I love these final 4!

A Trip To National Museum

Made a trip to National Museum with my honey yesterday, the pictures shown at the photography exhibition was filled so many superstars that I had a fun time deciphering which was my favourite. We also made our way to the rest of the exhibition halls to take in the artistic feel. Suddenly, I felt elevated a notch higher after brushing aside the "arts'. Hahaha! After that, we had dinner with our friends and I bought a liuli and Starwalker perfume, nice shopping I had :)
