SATC 2

This post has been created a month ago, thought I should really tidy up before my blog slowly vanishes from my thoughts.

I blame it all on long hours at work, lousy internet at home, the World cup. Right.. everything but my laziness. LoL

It was just any other Tuesday, until Nathan - Manager of Sultan Lounge, walked to my desk, and asked if I was doing anything tonite, No, he wasn't asking me out. He handed me 2 passes to the premiere of Sex and The City 2 ! Skyy Vodka did a launching of the movie in Sultan Lounge about 2 weeks ago, hence the 2nd invitation from them. The invitation said 7pm, Pavilion KL. Wahida and I hurried through our work, and intended to leave work at 6.15pm sharp. We made it on time at 7pm, just to find out that the movie was actually showing at 9pm, it's a cocktail reception from 7-9pm. Darned.. we could have left work a lil later, and perhaps drive over from the hotel? Oh well, still, it was good to leave work early for once !
We helped ourselves to the free flow cocktail, special concoctions made from juices and Skyy Vodka - the official Vodka for SATC 2. They served the same cocktails that they did at Sultan Lounge the other day, but less fancy this time. I don't have a picture of them but I found the following link, and my fave is Carrie & Samantha !
After sipping several glasses of cocktail, we are all ready to indulge in the comfort of Gold Class seats, and enjoy the much awaited movie of the year. Too bad we can't bring along the cocktails!
