Today’s my 1st day of filming for an Episode of Police & Thief. Got casted a supporting role (rather bit role) in the sitcom. Don’t really wanna tell you much about the episode as I don’t wanna give away any surprises! 😉 But U must watch it!

Mark Lee & me.JPGActing with Mark Lee, Constance Song & Suhaimi is simply wonderful! Mark Lee is a natural comedian making anything and everything funny! Just can’t stop laughing even though some scene were meant to be serious!

Me & Constance Song.JPG

Constance Song is very professional and a wonderful actress! I’m so happy to be able to meet her in real life, furthermore work with her! I can’t believe my luck! She’s soooooo gorgeous! Don’t need much to make her look pretty! And her eyes are very captivating… Initially I thought she was a little unfriendly but later I just realised that when she doesn’t smile she just has this “ice queen” look! Not her fault really…. Still 100% gorgeous in my books!

Sgt Dollah.JPGAnd Suhaimi is very very down to earth! No airs at all!

The experience is simply great! Can’t wait for my next day of filiming to work with them again!

Will let U know when this episode will air soon! Cos I don’t know yet!!

One Degree 15 – Mary K

November 8, 2007 by Jessica Tan

IMG_1572 - one15 club.jpg
Went to One Degree 15 yacht club for buffet lunch and the spread was fantastic! Had my favorite popiah, sashimi, satay, stir fried beef and best of all Durian desserts!!! *yummmm*

After having such a fulfilling meal, I just had to walk my tummy off! *haha* and chanced upon this beauty Mary K!

IMG_1566 - jessica and mary k.jpg

Mary K is a work ship used at oil rigs to tow 200 ton anchors, mix n provide cement for rigs around the world. And we were lucky to bump into the Operations Manager Charles who gave us a personal tour inside Mary K! *how fortunate!* not everyday one gets to step onto such a massive ship!

IMG_1568 - jessica and mary k.jpg
Joining us in the tour was an American family which stopped over in Singapore for the past month before sailing back to Florida. Their 55 footer boat was docked right beside Mary K! Their family members include 15 yr old son Paul, 11 yr old son Garret, parents and 3 yr old chocolate labby Natalie! Can U believe that the family’s been away from home for 2 years! The children are home school on board and they’ve visited plenty of places like Tahiti, Panama, Costa Rica, Fiji, Australia, Indonesia and many more!

Natalie’s sucha darling… she was immediately drawn to my jeans cos of Joey’s fur (my gf Joycelin’s dog) that remained on my jeans!

MMMMMMMMmmmmmm Mango!

November 7, 2007 by Jessica Tan

Recently I was introduced to this wonderful dessert creation!

It’s this mango dessert found in ABC Brickworks Market. The shop owner will shave a bowlful of fine ice almost as soft as snow and he’ll drizzle the ice with evaporated milk, then plops on a dollop of mango puree. After which, he cuts half a slice of fresh mango and puts it on top, adding more evaporated milk and now adding condensed milk. Mmmmmm…. The best thing is that this fresh mango dessert costs an affordable $2! For those mango fans out there, you can add more fresh mango for $1 only upon request. (That’s me of course! My sinful $3 PLEASURE)

Fruit can’t taste any better! 🙂

Enjoy!

XOXO

Ferragamo Show

November 7, 2007 by Jessica Tan

Was given Ferragamo’s latest platform sandal in velvet red to wear and wow did it make me feel tall!!! It’s 12 cm heels is a definite YES for every girl and it’s sooo comfortable to wear them even for long hours. (trust me I was standing in them for more than 3 hours and my feet didn’t complain one bit!)

IMG_1555 - jessica (noise reduced) - small.jpg

They’ve been known for comfortable shoes to many of us out there and to me the price it worth the comfort! It’s hard to find nice high heels that don’t kill you while you wear them. Tried and tested… Ferragamo you’ve done it! Don’t my calves looks extremely toned and slender cos of the heels?

And I can’t help to feel special in that dress cos it’s the exact same dress that Claudia Schieffer wore in their ad campaign!

IMG_1562 - jessica (noise reduced) - small.jpg

How I wish I’m as gorgeous as Claudia Schieffer!! Well… I’ll just have to settle with the dress we now share! *haha*

And the best thing about tonight is that I got to meet Mrs Ferragamo herself and her daughter! What an honour!!! Also I met the current designer for Ferragamo’s men’s wear Mr. Milano. 🙂

The biggest star there was this Korean actress whom I managed to get w photo op with. (I beg your pardon I forgot her name cos I don’t follow Korean dramas) But she’s stunning! Was mesmerized by her beauty…

All I have to say…. thank you Ferragamo for such a great evening!

Love,
Jess

P.S. hope to get more photos from the press to post it up here!

November 6, 2007 by Jessica Tan

I’m invited to go down to the fashion show tonight as a guest to watch it and I’m thrilled! What’s made me more excited was the phonecall I that woke me up this morning. It was from the Brand Manager of Ferragamo and she called to ask if she could dress me up in Ferragamo!

Yes of course!!!

I’ve never worn anything from Ferragamo before and simply love their shoes! (I’m a shoes & bags whore) After that phonecall I couldn’t really go back to sleep cos of the adrenalin rush. Heee…….

Just came back from their boutique and collected this black silk low-cut dress they picked out for me and chose shoes to go along with it… Felt like a princess! I lurve the shoes!!!!

Okie gotta go get ready for tonight’s event! Look out for photos!

Love,
Jess

Meeting SR Nathan

November 5, 2007 by Jessica Tan

DSC02008 - lighter small.jpg

Mr Nathan invited everyone in Mediacorp who participated in the recent President’s Star Charity show to the Grand Ballroom in the Istana for a reception just to say “thank you”. And of course I accepted his invite! I’ve never been inside the Istana ever so I am really curious to know how it looks like inside.

As we were driving into the Istana with the sun-setting in the backgroud, the view was simply picturesque, just like a painting! There’s a 9-hole golf course inside the compounds for Members of the Parliament and a couple of wandering swans on the lawn! The Istana’s huge! Around 16 hectres big if I’m not wrong….. can’t imagine what’s it like to upkeep such a big home!

mr president.JPGOne thing I really wanted to do when I was in the Istana was to shake the President’s hand and take a photo with him! (I know I sound like a tourist or something but it’s rare to have a photo taken with a President! And not just A President, it’s Singapore’s) Was really really happy when I got my photo with him! *HAHAH*

After that was accomplished, I just mingled around and enjoyed the buffet spread and went camera crazy with the rest who were there! 😛

Stardust

November 3, 2007 by Jessica Tan

Went to watch Stardust in a GV Max cinema and really enjoyed the show. It’s a simple pretty straight forward show without too much sub plots or twists in the story which makes it a good show to watch just for pure entertainment without getting a splitting headache! And the all star cast does help too! *hehe* It’s been such a long time since I’ve seen Claire Danes in the movies and this is a good comeback for her cos she still looks as young as she was in Romeo & Juliet and she’s still so pretty!

Good show to watch!

Good Food! Basil Alcove

November 2, 2007 by Jessica Tan

Lotsa friends were raving about this place to have yummy food at reasonable prices, so I decided to give it a try! And they were right! It’s a tiny shop situated at Fortune Centre facing the main road that serves haute cuisine at almost no frills price. If you don’t mind Al Fresco dining you should definitely give this place a shot! Plus it’s a great place to bring a girl on a date without burning a hole in your pocket! (fine dining at reasonable cost)

My favorite dish there is the Cod… Crispy on the outside and really melt-in-your-mouth soft on the inside, served with a spinach whip that is unique and has a pleasant smooth taste to it.

And the appetizers there are delicious too like the mixed sausages, mixed mushrooms and baked mussels (didn’t eat this cos I don’t really eat shellfish – this is according to my friends I went with). My Fav: mixed mushrooms! (this is biased simply because I love mushrooms!)
