About Me

My photo
I can't live without my mascara (because i have small eyes)... I love good chocolate, good cheese and good wine (especially White Chardonnay)... I love colourful patent leather ballerina from Salvatore Ferragamo (but they ain't have my size and I stil can't afford it)... I like reading (book, magazine and even map)... I like writing (and that's why I'm here)... I love travelling (and always wanted to be a back-packer)... I'm like an active volcano (so don't mess with me)... I have high standards and principles for myself, as well as for others (so sometimes people hate me)...

A for Alcohol.V for Vodka

Kinda fall in love with alcohol...well, i think three years ago when I first tried Gin Tonic and realised how good the alcohol plays in "connecting people" (Of course, Nokia is always the pioneer in connecting people :P)


Frankly, I think some people will still have some stereotypical and prejudicial view towards girls who drink. At least the first one I met is my auntie. Whenever she sees me drink, she will day "good girls don't drink" and yeah..you got it, I don't give a damn.


I like all kinda alcohol and don't mind trying them out to experience how they could play with my palate. Haha... but I kinda have "resistance" towards beers. The only beer I can accept is only Heineken. I don't know why but my Dutch friend, Sjakie told me that Heineken is the worst beer in Netherlands. Really? Haha... i don't quite like beers mainly because I don't like the feeling of "bursting tummy" after a few bottle.



I like white wine, I like Gin Tonic and I like Vodka (especially vodka kurant, because a purple maniac like me would like anything in purple, haha, and I wish to collect all the different flavours and version from Swedish Absolut Vodka, they are gorgeous). I remember I was drunk, well, half-drunken (but vomitted) in the beautiful beach of Langkawi after a bottle of Chardonnay followed by a bottle of Merlot (if not mistaken, but I can be 100% sure that it was a bottle of red wine). That was freaking awkward. I can't accept throwing up after drinking. Though my situation was not those crazy-drunken-girl-yelling-while-vomiting, I was just sitting alone, vomiting silently, (haha..) but I was really embarassed the next day :(



One of my favourite drink - bombay Sapphire Gin. Chase it with Tonic, Ice and a slice of lemon. Hmmm... Wonderful!







The Absolut Vodka in Blackcurrant flavour. Very nice. Can drink it with some berries-flavoured sparkling mineral water and of course, don't miss out a slice of lemom, which will make it tastes much better.







The Absolut Vodka family ... aren't they look magnificent in a big family? I wish I can have all these as soon as possible!!

Chinese New Year is about to end and I have finished a bottle of Vodka Kurrant with my parents. Had some red wine as well and I tried Chivas Whisky with my dad (I can only say I am not at the age of appreciating Whisky :P). Which was fun. When alcohol is around, people are at their best ease and talk more than usual.


Don't worry, I am not an alcoholic, I know my limit and i strongly against alcoholism. But nest time, when you have a small argument with your loved one, why not puring each other some wine (or beers or whatever cocktails you want) and talk to sort the problem out. But don't be too drunk, it is always a dangerous matter to be too drunk in front of people, cos' you might not know what will you say...
