Some kind of wonderful & a Bday

May 1, 2008

 

It was B.Bro’s bday last Tuesday. We had some dinner and booze at Jules Bar in Le Meridien Village.

with Stan (bday.boy) 

Jules Bar Satisfaction Ratings:

Entertainment  = 5 stars

Domination Band kickstarted the night with R&B songs, still pleasant to the ears followed by Multivitamins Band. They were soo funny and we had a good laugh not to mention he made fun on the audience.

FOOD & BEVERAGE = 4 stars

We had the Mexican Platter, another platter that I forgot the name and Crispy Pata. They had Kilkenny’s for the booze (which by the way an Irich cream ale and has stonger taste)  and I tried the Apricot & Mango Martini followed by Smirnoff Ice and a tea which by the way is free as it was their Ladies Night. 

Service = 3 stars

 

The service was pretty slow…slow…slow…We ask kabayan for our drinks  a whole lot…Really.

Overall, it was ok and we had fun. I even took photos of the couple who danced when their theme song (What a Wonderful World) was sung in upbeat sorta bossa version by the band. They were from New York having a vacation here in Dubai and I think they were in their seventies, isn’t that cool. They still get to date and enjoy life as a couple. 

What a wonderful world…..

Weight of what was

April 24, 2008

The “weight of what was” is actually a Ghost Whiperer episode title. For me, somehing else haunts me..My weight!! Yup, tried to weigh myself the other day and I was shocked! Really shocked at what came out. I gained so much weight. I remember before I got pregnant I only weighed 85lbs. having such a petite frame and I weighed 125lbs. until I gave birth. I immediately lost that pounds and from then on I was 95lbs. until the day I weighed myself..102lbs..

Now, how can I lost that extra pounds since I really can’t last a day without rice and with my personal chef (aka Mi Amour) cooking I don’t think I can do it.  But I guess I’ll start eating healthy this time by:

-consume half a cup of rice only

-drink lots of water

-fruit juice instead of soda, tea and coffee

-cut down on meat opt for fish and veggies

-fruits for dessert instead of chocolates

-muesli instead of fudge brownies (Mi amour’s specialty, oh my gosh!)

And this weekend, I will check some running shoes. I’ll start by jogging my way to slimville again as the bulges are coming to get me..

‘Gotta run..
