Night Life at The Cloud 9 Bar @ Resorts World Genting

In Genting, the city never sleeps. Being an entertainment hub, Resorts World Genting is never short of night life. It is not the matter of whether Genting can provide, it is the matter of how much can you take. The next time you are searching for a speakeasy that can rock your night, try The Cloud 9 Bar.

My friends and I decided to let our hair down after a long week with some music and booze. Some flirty dress and heels could do the therapy too. Coincidentally, the bar was still in Halloween theme which added more flavour to our trip there.

The bar is uniquely split into 2 sections- one section which gives full permission to revel and dance while the other is more mellow with opportunities for games and chat. We lounged at the more happening area with our drinks while imbibing the the music. The atmosphere was tuned to the pulse of the live band with notes of English and Mandarin selections.

Cloud 9 exudes a more friendly and unpretentious character than other bars that I have been. Although casual, the bar was adequate in hyping up the party. Dance floor was wherever we stood...and sat. Ofcourse, there was nothing more uplifting than a good toast with friends swathed by unlimited music.

There was no use taming our wild side as Cloud 9 was literally bringing out the devil in us. Halloween face painting added character to our happy hours at the bar.

The quiet section too has its charm. Chatting was more possible in this area and perfect for private conversations without losing the happening atmosphere. Lit in purple, the booths are chic and isolated by sexy bead curtains.

This bar is facilitated with a pool table for those who like some competitive pleasure and darts to give enthusiastic shooters some practice. This place is prepared for you to have fun and unwind before you go back to the battle field in the hot city.

Back to the room where music is pumped incessantly, dancers came out from their hiding to encourage the rest to get their booties shaking a little more. 
Party and dance
Dancing is not all there was to do that night. My friends and I were engaged in a few rounds of classic hand games that will never go out of fashion when around booze. 
Hand games are always a great way to spend the night

Enjoyment can come in a form of observing human demeanor on the dance floor and getting the mouth moving instead of the feet. To the uninitiated, just sit back and relax over a bucket of chicken wings or a tray of tacos.

Be in the buzz in Genting by being at The Cloud 9 bar. It is a place that satisfies the passion for night life. While I do not encourage getting drunk, a hang out in a bar uphill can be a reminder to self to take it easy in life.

Party at Surf Beach- ACV Music Festival 2015

The ACV Music Festival, I admit, was used as a validation, that after so long I still have not lost it! The pairing of Saturday night and a beach party still managed to appear in my calendar. And who else more suitable to party with than my partner in crime- my baby sister.

It was one entertaining Saturday night
2 VIP tickets to the ACV Music Festival

I have heard of Leng Yein for a long time and followed her on Instagram but I have never heard her music live. That night I finally saw her on stage dishing out party mix with her beau, PointBlanc who was also her MC. She was in a whole new light when she display her dexterity on the sound board. The somewhat "shallow" persona with never-ending plastic attachments, boldly tattooed skin and overexposed body seemed vindicated with her music intelligence. I must admit her music rocks!

A new respect for her in my eyes developed when she personally thanked me for tagging her on Instagram after the concert. Over 400 000 followers and I still receive a personal note from her? She deserves her legion of fans!

Sky Blu (8ky 6lu) took over the stage after LYPB. He simply swore too much. The four-letter word punctuated every sentence he spoke. I don't know how "cool" is interpreted in Los Angeles but I did not enjoy his performance much. So my sister and I took a breather at the side of the beach. Sorry fans of Sky Blu, but it was more interesting waiting for Havana Brown with some Somersby Apple Cider in hand.

Havana Brown appeared effortless in a blue superman t-shirt but hey...it was Havana Brown! Her music was smooth. Her sweet face was never short of smiles. Through her sexy songs, Havana Brown made sure everyone was entertained.

The emcees of the event was Arnold and RD. I cannot contain my disappointment in them. Perhaps I overestimated the duo.  Being radio announcers of the program that I have always enjoyed (Hitz.fm morning crew) I thought they could do better. RD made it pretty obvious that they were buying time and used the same introduction twice for Havana and Paris. His overload call of "make some noise" did irk me a little. But nonetheless, I supported and we made some noise anyway...hehehe. Well guess it isn't easy emceeing a concert.

The anchor of the the night's show was supposed to be the hotel heiress Paris Hilton. She came strutting out on the stage in a short green dress that flattered her fit and slender body. However, the cat-ear hair band and green heart-shaped shades reduced her appearance to . She did a little awkward dance with the background dancers before commencing her work on the sound board.
Paris Hilton's opening strut
Honestly, I was between being sympathetic and critical. The crowd began to disperse when she appeared. She left her songs quite flat when she whipped out her mobile phone several times for a selfie. Well, I'll give her an A for effort though. At least she aspires.

Those being said, my sister and I enjoyed the night thoroughly and had a wonderful time. Thank you to the sponsor of the ticket! May there be more to come :)
