name on the guestlist at reception.

pictures, a collection of the world’s most desirable jewellery
creations and features some of Asia’s eminent entrepreneurs, high
society and celebrated personalities.
I wore my Caramel
Python Skin Leather Jacket with white shirt & woven leather
boots toting my new Damier Graphite Tadao to attend this event. Saw
some familliar faces that night, a party with nice finger foods
& champagne. Lots of gorgeous timepieces, Van Cleef &
Arpels "Charms" collection is very interesting, a watch of
exceptional elegance & high taste that would look good on any
ladies. Baume & Mercier Reviera Collection look wonderful too,
simple yet elegant Lengendary Line with both Classical & Sporty
Line, i love their dodecagonal face. Leon Lai & Michele
Reis look wonderful despite their age. Leon Lai got lots of pinkish
energy surrounding him while Michele pale in comparision. I feel
that she is having some issues with her personal live. Well thats
just my intuitive reading.
I left Paragon about
9:30pm meeting a good friend of mine for dinner, we decide to try
out "Dai Ka Jie" at Heeren. Ordered their signature Roast duck,
Fried Otak, Claypot Stingray & Fish Maw soup. Ambience so so,
only roast duck is nice, the rest of food too oily, Service wise
not so good perhaps it is near closing hour however the waiter that
serve us is still fine before i left gave him a little
tip.
Another day has
ended.
Blessed Be,

"The simple sharing of joy, be it physical, emotional, psychic, or
intellectual, forms a bridge between the sharers which can be the
basis for understanding much of what is not shared between them,
and lessens the threat of their difference."
