Raise your pints to Arthur Guinness as we kick off the month-long celebration of Arthursday music parties!

September 18, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

Let's celebrate the legacy of Arthur once again… all month long!

GUINNESS Arthur's Day 2012,  themed 'A Celebration Made of More', makes it comeback for Guinness fans and music lovers nationwide.

 

I was glad to be part of it too! 

 

Inspired by Arthur Guinness' bold legacies, this year's series of month-long Guinness parties pays tribute to the founder of Guinness, a man who dared to make bold choices in his time.

 

 

What exactly did he do, you wonder? 

Well, while other brewers boiled their barley back in the day, Arthur Guinness made the bold decision to roast his, creating a brew with more flavour, more taste and more look, which we now fondly know as the iconic black brew – Guinness.

 

Uh-huh! That's the one right there 

 

I was invited to usher in the Arthur's Day series of month-long parties at the official launch party.

Hey, ho… let's go! :D:D

 

Made my way to the party!

 

It was held at Studio Lounge @ Tropicana City Mall

 

Yup, there you have it… the remarkable man made of more!

Hello there, Arthur Guinness

MC Serena C hyping up the party and giving us a warm welcome!

 

The party saw a delightful spread of a buffet dinner for all its guests. 

I helped myself to their rendang chicken, satay, carved beef and so much more 

 

Enjoying dinner with some friends!

 

The many faces of Jessicat X Guinness 

 

3..2..1….

 

And the party kicks off with a bang!

 

Quite literally, as confetti exploded everywhere!

The lounge was filled with shimmery streaks and glitter :D

 

Local pop-rock band, Underheadlights, were amongst the band performing for us

 

A few local bands & artists vying for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity happening at the end of the month!

They are Underheadlights, Car Crash Hearts, Once Upon a Time There Was a Sausage Named Bob, Rhythm Nation, SonaOne and Busco.

 

 

Yup, they will be battling it out for a chance to be the opening act for Creed at the Arthur's Day concert in Indonesia!

All the best! May the best band win 

 

Need another pint for good luck? :D

 

No party is complete without its photographic evidence, yes?

Well… here they are! 

 

 

Soon after, theboyfie and I decided to check out the much-talked about Arthur's Lounge.

It looks like a huge container/caravan thingy from a  distance. 

 

Let's enter and find out….

 

Guinness draught stations were all lined up for guests to learn how to make their own pints!

 

One of the Guinness boys taught me how

 

I've always wondered how they made a pint so smooth, frothy and foamy! 

Finally, my question was answered as I was taught how to make my own pint of Guinness.

 

Success! My very own frothy Guinness and I 

 

Theboyfie had a hands-on experience too!

 

Both our perfectly made pints of Guinness!

 

Thanks Guinness, for imparting the art of making one of your draughts

Here's to a successful series of celebrations throughout the whole September.

 

To Arthur! :D

 

Speaking of which, my Sunday afternoon (Malaysia Day) was spent at Sid's Pub @ TTDI.

Headed there to attend one of the series of Arthur's Day month-long parties! :D

 

((STYLESHOT OF THE DAY))

Jessicat wears : Black Camisole by GUESS | Cream High-Waisted Shorts by PDI |

Accessories by Hard Rock | Hermes inspired skinny belt |

There was so much going on, Guinness revellers buzzing all over the pub vicinity :D

Local bands served as our entertainment for the afternoon as well.

 

Just as I was entering Sid's Pub

 

Warm & cosy pub setting. Perfect for an afternoon of mingling over deep dark Guinness 

 

Love their bar! I bet with the amount of alcohol stash they have, it could feed all alcoholics for a year!

 

The bartenders were such a friendly bunch 

 

Pretty Guinness usherettes were present too

 

Decided to have lunch there too soon after. 

We had an assortment of Chicken, Tuna & Cheese double-stacked sandwiches, Chicken & Pork Hotdogs

 

They were pretty damn good! :D

Thanks for the photo, Wilson! 

 

Really? Allow me to have another sip then 

 

Good food & good company!

 

Serena & I enjoying our pints! 

 

The more the merrier!

 

A perfect frothy pint of your favorite black brew for a perfect sunny afternoon 

 

Wanna have just as much fun as I did? Don't miss the next ones then 

There are 5 more Arthur's Day music parties being held :

 

Dirty Nelly's @ KL Live : 21st September 2012

Thank you Guinness for a fun Sunday afternoon!

Perhaps it was love after all *winks* ;);)

It’s the freakin’ weekend!

May 5, 2012 by thejessicat

 

Hollaaaaa! Hope your weekend is going swell, dear readers

Mine has been hectic but fun thus far! I just returned from a full day at the 'Avengers With Harley' event.

 

Many thanks to Harley Davidson for inviting me as their guest!

I had a swell time checkin' out and even riding your buncha sexy superbikes. It an was out-of-this-world experience! The private screening of Marvel's The Avenger's with good company & all the bikers was amazing too

 

More of that in another blogpost!

 

Random photo : sunny skies ahead!

 

   Oooh and here's a Health & Money tip for today! 

Steadfast in my daily routine is lots of gymtime and fresh fruits & vegetables everyday.

 

My gym essentials

 

To complement your healthy lifestyle, blend your own fresh fruit juice at home!

Theboyf and I bought a whole lot of fruits & veggies yesterday at the market and it only costed us 6 bucks altogether.  

 

Imagine buying fruit juice from a juice bar – 10 bucks for a blend of only 3 fruits, sugared, watered down and filled with ice.

Nope, not wise at all. 

 

This morning, we had a power combination of 5 types of fruits & 2 veggies

 

Let's see. Green apples, red apples, oranges, pears, a pineapple, celery sticks & carrots.

100% fresh, pure, concentrated fruit juice including the pulp for only RM6 FOR TWO HUGE GLASSES! 

Apart from the labour of cutting & juicing the fruits by ourselves (and rinsing the equipment thereafter) it is a fun thing to do together, I must say! 

 

Upon taking our 1st sip of our homemade fruit juice, we nodded in approval and high-fived each other for a job well done. 

 

Did some juicing with buddy Pamela at home too!

We used a combo of red apples, oranges, carrots & pears 😀

 

By the way, some of you have been asking me why I haven't been updating much this month.

Now that you've mentioned, it kinda struck me.  

 

Probably 'cos I'm often out and about even more lately that I hardly have the time to sit at my computer anymore.

Apologies! 🙁 You can still catch up with me via my twitter page :D

 

Promise I'll be updating a whole lot more, aight? 🙂 

Oh, and to make up for lost time, here's a back to back of some photos & happenings I've missed out on sharing with you peeps.

 

Saved a kitten from being crushed in the middle of the road

 

Speaking of felines, here are a few latest piccies of my furkid, Chivas.

He's such an adorable ball of fluff, 10 months old now 🙂

 

Just got him neutered!

 

Was extended an invitation to Werner's @ Changkat Bukit Bintang to attend a launch party jointly organized by Corset Me, Rarablack and Lovely Legs.

They held a sexy corset party – CANDYGIRL – and it was fun trying out their corsets, leggings and other outfits!

 

The ladies from Corset Me did a live demonstration of the proper & correct way to wear a corset

 

I've personally never worn an *actual* corset before!

I only own those corset-look-a-like tube tops from Guess, Forever 21 and MNG. 

 

This live demonstration was informational & pretty fun to watch

 

They then offered to let me try their corsets. I got to choose whichever corset that suits my style the most!

The kind lady-boss of Corset Me – Jaycee – helped me wear it properly. Thanks again!

 

Before I knew it, I was ushered to the studio area to do a photoshoot with their corset on.

 

My style was evident tonight – an edgy, rockerchick look with a feminine touch 

I picked a black Ed Hardy inspired corset

 

Felt so jittery throughout the photoshoot!

I've always felt more comfortable being the photographer than being photographed. But I hope I pulled it off!

 

Mui Victoria and I during the event

 

Michelle and I just before we left the event!

Two photos : one from my camera & one from hers 🙂

 

It was a fun and enlightening night. I had a great time!

 

Attended Carlsberg Where's The Party event

Thanks for the photos, Ed 🙂

 

Just some photos from ze clan's Christmas potluck party. I made roast! 😀 😀

Again, thanks for the photos Ed!

 

Brought theboyf back to Penang for the 1st time

 

Had my Industrial Piercing re-pierced because I didn't like the initial positioning

 

Went for a double date with my pals!

Some relaxation + shisha with good Iranian food at Shisha Lounge!

 

Had an amazing & fun-loving valentines!

 

Exchanged gifts! (More gift-exchange that I forgot to take photos of cos he opened mine real fast)

 

Had a milkshake phase

Speaking of which, it's been a while since we last had our dose of Milkshake Factory, ey? 😛

 

Played with food

 

Ate too much good food

 

…….. that it's time for a moneydiet

 

Went to Semenyih for the 1st time to accompany buddy Pam's trip Nottingham University

Photo taken while waiting for her 🙂

 

Played and experimented with pretty contact lenses!

Clockwise : olive green, ash, brown, violet

 

Had a random burst of OCD and I started to reorganize my contact lenses

 

Bought new grey diamond ones! Love how they have sucha strong affinity to the eyeballs

 

  Just so you know, all the contact lenses I'm wearing are plano ones.

Zero power, as I am neither short-sighted nor long-sighted.

 

But unfortunately, I have very high astigmatism.

Got my eyes checked!

 

Fell in love with this tiny car with a Union Jack roof!

 

Also fell in love with this random cloud I saw by the display window in the mall!

 

Camwhored in the car while waiting in the bubble jet carwash machine!

 

Attended one of the series of Guinness's St. Patrick's Day celebrations at Jarrod & Rawlins!

Brought along buddy Pam to join in the greeeeeeen Irish fun 

 

Massive retail therapy when I got real moody sometime last month

 

Pampered my nails – DIY at home! 😀

 

Random shot via iTouch at KLCC carpark

 

Random shot via iTouch at The Curve's carpark

 

Also a random shot, this time in Sunway instead!

 

Had a scrumptious dinner feast with the Aussiemates at Souled Out

 

Camwhoring with theboyf with full hopes of getting a nice photo but………

Such is life 

 

Attended the Laura Mercier Spring 2012 Collection & Swatch launch

 

Had my make up done by the professional make-up artists there!

 

Met the amazing Jodi Riley, the official, international make-up artist of Laura Mercier

She's so bubbly and full of personality!

 

Lastly, went back to school with buddy Pam to visit our high school teachers &

eat the famous Char Koay Teow at our canteen!

 

Surely you must miss your high school food after growing up with it for 11 years of your early life 😛

We certainly did.

 

That being said, have a good night (or a party night!)

and enjoy your Sunday ahead lovelies!
