Pipes of steel!
Ok here’s the deal about Carrie: i) GREAT voice ii) has blossomed into a good performer (miles from her robotic American Idol days) iii) she’s HOT… but you know not just that but also attractive in that (blonde) girl-next-door type way. She comes across as a humble and nice person… While the audience was decent, I felt that she deserved more energy/appplause cuz she really sang and performed all out. Most of the “boring-ness” of course came from the VIP section…but I guess Carrie & gang didn’t mind since it is a paid gig anyway (and not like the usual concert).
By 9+pm I was tired and severely hungry…My 2 friends had finished dinner already and one said we needed to meet 2 of her ex-colleagues from drinks at the Conrad but they said they would accompany me to eat at Orchard 1st. We, new Carrie U. fans, of course had to be let out systematically so I rushed out asap & grabbed a Red Bull on the way to meet my friends at Centrepoint. I had dinner at TCC (since it was the only thing nearby still serving food at that hour). We caught up, found out that friend #1 (Leng Sim) was now based in Singapore and that friend #2 Karen was STILL busy flying all over the world this year (which she’s been doing allllll yr round). After that, we went to meet 2 of Karen’s ex-colleagues at the Conrad for drinks.
The next day, I had a lunch appointment with my ex-gf, Alicia, at Bakerzin, Paragorn (which I was supposed to hv done the night b4 with Leng Sim and Karen). Then, cuz I was too tired to walk everywhere, just hung out at Centerpoint while waiting for my usual Singapore massage. The shop was sooo busy (it was Deepavali) and i ended up with a shorter session than planned. That night we went to out to a Jap buffet to have my niece’s bday dinner. Fun place…esp. for families and children! On Sun, I left on the Aeroline after having brekkie at a McDonalds 
Here’s to Singapore! Til the next time…
