(GIVEAWAY) Kronenbourg Event - the launch of Kronenbourg 1664 Signs of Attraction

 The launch of Kronenbourg 1664 Signs of Attraction 
17th February 2012, Shaw Lido 
(Collaboration with Starhub Blackberry (BASH), 8Days & Lunch Actually)

How did I know about the beer and  What do I think of the beer?
Well, during October last year, I managed to have a few sip of the BLANC, which has a little citrus twist to it. Being a hard-core partier previously, beer was my death zone. Which means, every time I drink, its either I burp damn disgustingly or just feel giddy after a short while. BUT, when I drank BLANC, it tasted so good, I can have bottles after bottles!

My boyfriend and I wanted to buy it during the atrium fair, but by the time we were there, they were closed, so we headed on to Cold Storage @ nex and... we bought the green bottle (which is more bitter in comparison with BLANC). I dont really like that as much as I like the BLANC. So yep! I think the drink is suitable to anyone, even when you are one who don't fancy beer. GO BUY AND TRY. Worth it! *swears*

How did I get my hands on the tickets?
I got 2 sets of tickets in total. One pair from Kronenbourg and the other from BASH (A collaboration with Starhub & Blackberry -- at least Starhub recognises Blackberry users k megaa <3!)

So what I did was... when I saw it on BASH, it was pretty late already, and I know that Starhub has very good response from its facebook users. Considering that I was registering for a chance on the last day, I was so confirmed that I wouldn't be able to attend the event. Therefore, I took my luck to email Kronenbourg themselves (spotted them on facebook).

Had a little bumper when I sent my email to Kronenbourg, cause there was an automatic reply saying the person was away (causing sadness in my face). BUT THANKFULLY, there were other personnel attending to the mail. Thanks to Kronenbourg for the super prompt reply, I was invited and classified as Media on their list. (Ok, this sounds a bit overly excited, but it has always been my dream to bring VLV to the next level and hearing that they classified my name as media just FWAHHHH - super happy). But on second thoughts, maybe they have no other classification lah. Whatever. Just let me be happy for the two seconds.

So what was involved in the event?
- Free Beer and French Canapes
- Free Cupid Angels to look (Oggle) at
- Free "THIS MEANS WAR" movie premier
- Goodie Bag for all guest (I'll show the pictures later)

I wanted to set up my dear friend - Janice Lim with a date, cause it was more like a single event. BUT THAT STUPID WOMEN, had to go for wisdom tooth extraction & surgery, so I was left with no choice.Ended up, after knowing I had 4 invites in total, I invited my "bitch" friend Minami & her boyfriend. Obviously I was with my own boyfriend.

Alright, picture time! (:


I was given the media kit

Thereafter, we left, cause we had to had proper dinner. So we dropped by at Ion's Fish&Co. Thank you Minami for the extravagant treat! (: Much <3 and kisses to you.

I didn't know that iPads are conquering the world ):

As we only had our food (urgently) served at 8.45pm, all of us gobbled our Seafood Platter for 2. Wah. Almost choke to death. Mega Fullness. Over here, I want to commend on the service provided by Fish & Co @ Ion (specifically), because they have the best service any Fish&Co. Outlet has. Totally amazing. They were so considerate to rush our dish out despite understanding and knowing that there may be unhappy customers who were earlier than us, but have yet to been served. 

I mean, MY MOVIE IS AT 9PM LEH. -- But the four of us, kinda got "dua"/Cheated. Cause when we rushed back to the theatre, thinking that we had missed the show, IT WAS STILL SHOWING TRAILERS LO.  Ok that was all forgiven as upon entry to the theatre, we were given goodie bags! (:


Here's a sneak on what's inside the goodie bag before I proceed on with a very short movie review..


Want to know what I'm giving away? CONTINUE TO READ. Don't play cheat and scroll down!

Basically, the movie plot is about how these two Spies are trying to woo the lead actress (Reese Witherspoon). Overall, the plot is pretty interesting, showing how the Spies used their job to get the "job" done. Can you imagine, if that was you? Quite cool ah? But, it was kinda predictable (at least for me), to know who she chose in the end. So.. if you want to know who she chose, go watch it. Overall its a romance/action/comedy flick. Its like a combination of all, which I doubt your male partner would feel bored in. Probably would remind them what they did in the past, when they "chased" after you!

Ratings: 4/5 popcorns!

Giveaway time!
Ok.. So.. I'm giving away these 2 of the iPhone 4 covers, well, mainly cause I DONT HAVE AN iPhone. I never like anything touch screen, they make my hands feel like butter and my brains - welp, stupid. But hey. I found out on facebook that you have to spend a certain amount then you would be given this exclusive cover ok. So don't "hiam" my give away!
