The Expendables 2

ABBEY: SPOILER ALERT: Ok, we had a long wait for this sequel. After hours spent on cleaning the house we rewarded ourselves to watch this action star-packed movie. Lead by Stallone, they went to mountains of Albania to retrieve a computer that shows a blueprint of a plutonium mine. Unfortunately they were intercepted by Van Damme's group which led to the killing of their youngest member. Revenge as their motive, they track down their enemies. The movie is great. I had a lot of laughs watching it. They pulled it off again just like the first. By the way beware of the "lone wolf" :))



WILL: It is holiday and I really want to stay home, but Abbey insisted to go out and watch this movie, anyway, I turned down so many movie dates he scheduled, this one I cannot resist the insisting aura of my hubby. 3PM schedule was full house then we settled for 5PM.
      The story is quite usual but the casting is awesome. It is like you watch a 8-in-1 movie. Its is comedy more than an action. 7/10.

Fred Perry : Sub-Sonic Live (Singapore) @ The Lawn

ABBEY: This is our second invitation for Fred Perry Sub-Sonic Live. Like the first free flow of drink for those who were Fred Perry apparel. The drinks were catered by 42 Below Vodka. Singtel also had a caricature booth. After queuing we had our turn to be "cartoonized". It went well. 

Kudos to the artists. They also gave us a magazine in which we are inset as part of the first party. The song artist is good as well. The stage is better this time as we can see their faces now. Before going home we finished 2 songs of Charlie Lim. This guy plays the guitar really good. I hope we can be part again of the next gathering :)










WILL: They created a culture... The Fred Perry Subculture. A clothing brand that helps the underground music to surface on music scene. We are glad that our RSVP was placed in and got the invite for this event.We got there at The Lawn around 8PM, band is playing and all were flocking their way to the stage.
      One serving of 42 and below accompany us all through the night. One cup is enough, Abbey still need to go to the office after the party. Singtel is one of the sponsor, now they have this caricature booth and we never let this opportunity pass and sat our butt and wait for the man or lady on the another side of two-way mirror to finish the job. We got the picture and mouthed a thank you. We paved our way to the stage and listened to the bands.
      Fascinating and relaxing event. This is a great night to enjoy the weekend. We are really looking forward for the next schedule of Fred Perry Subculture.
      Thanks Fred Perry and to all the sponsors. Keep up the help of the music artists!

Magnum Temptation Hazelnut

ABBEY: This is new flavor of Magnum ice cream. This time they put hazelnut in their frozen delight. The taste is creamy and caramel-sweet. 

Back in Philippines, this ice cream is a phenomenon. Its just the curiosity that I bought it but I prefer their original flavor. A 3-stick pack costs 6sgd





WILL: As my previous post about this ice cream sensation, I am not that grateful as others may seem, or I san say unlike Abbey. Haha! Abbey love this a lot, me?, I am not that so in to this. Actually, a pack was stocked in our freezer for over a month. I just ate one of those when I got a tooth extraction.
      The taste? As usual, the crunchy chocolate that envelopes the vanilla ice cream and hazelnut. Good for a dessert though.
