pleasent nite out

Plans on catching a movie was like demolished after the usual jim gang members were all occupied with their commitments. Peeps like Ian working and then Ah seng had to leave for the land of aussie this afternoon, crazy sotong ever so busy. But still at the end met up with Darren and his gf Yuting as well as my Bud Steven. We had dinner at TCC, and then drop by at a place near Steven's place PAHANG RD OR PAHANG LANE its near ALWIWI Street. That place is ever so charming, had wine at this store that looks like a wine cellar wonderful place for peeps who enjoy red wine(finest things in life), sited at a dim lighted table the ambience was cosy. After the drink, steve was complaning about being hungry so we decided to walk down the street, in search for a place to eat. As we walk down we came across many shop houses where people sat outside smoking seesha, it got us all so excited. Well when was the last time I had that well guess it was 2 years ago. Hahaha. Well the AROMA of the smoke was nice. Probably we will visit that place again for a bonk.

The roads at Arab Street look pretty much different from the ones in the daytime. Everything seems so serene. In the end we dropped by a muslim store had chicken mutabuck(not sure if its spelled this way), teh terak and also Mee Pattaya. Sat there till 1 and all of us were scared away by a flying cockroach. SCARY! I hate those black fucking creatures, always lurking around.

Overall had a interesting nite out. But of cause how could I not update alittle on the Creative Circle Award 2006 which Steven was present last night. Saatchi & Saatchi Sg won the much acclaim BEST OF SHOW award. The images monsters a little scary but the copy does make alot of sense.





The copy for one of the ad reads like this:
Your mother acts as though nothing happened.
She makes dinner and sits at the table, staring into her plate.
He stumbles in drunk, stands behind her and says,
“I’m sorry. Do you forgive me?”
She sits silent for a long time.
You can see the bruise over her eye turning purple.
You can feel her sadness filling the room.
She nods without looking up.
He forces a kiss on her then smiles at you as if to say
everything’s fine now.
You stare into your plate.

According to Steven O&M SG was the biggest winner this year, they won it big in both the ad as well as interactive categories with trophies that stacked in a heap. Following that was KINETIC advertising, fuck they are favourites at all local award show in gunning some metals, so at CCA it was no exception that they do well. Agencies who received awards were BATES SG whose Nokia Ad won the BEST OF ILLUSTRATION, which as follow MCCAN ERICKSON SG, BBDO SG and of cause last but not least JWT SG. Black Design won the BEST OF SHOW award for the DESIGN category, for anyones info BLACK DESIGN's CD is none other then JACKSON TAN of the infamous design collective PHUNK:STUDIO.

Well hope the medal tally would be up on the website. Probably we will have a clearer picture of the overall tabulated format.

Yawnz time to go to bed already eyes are getting droopy.
