grateful.

oh mann.. for all 0720-ers for ur taggs,
thank you.
i'm truly touched!
it feels great to noe that i have known you guys!

anyways, depsite all the catching up i have to do,
i'm guilty to say that i've spent my saturday and sunday in town, window shopping.
okays it was more to check the prices of the twilight collection.
so far, the cheapest would be at kino(taka) for hard cover new moon and eclipse.
but for twilight, the only place which sells hard cover is at times.

okay, since i rarely step into taka because the shops there are way outta my league,
i was shocked to see that people actually have to QUEUE to get into LV.
there was really a queue. andd a guard handling the crowd.
inside the shop itself, there were at least 4 more guards just standing at their designated posts.
how stressful is that?
but i guess they wouldn't want to risk the shop getting robbed or smth.

went to watch harold and kumar with my parents yesterday!
hahahaha. its kinda like the kinda movies i'll watch with cheryl,
cos its kinda crude and really not the kind of movies you'll wanna catch wif ur parents.
i mean, for a movie outing, it should be movies like indiana jones that kind you noe?
family-ish action-packed movie.
not harold and kumar definitely!
but my mom insisted she wanted to watch the show,
so we went to get tickets for the 7+ show at orchard.
the entire hall was fully booked except for 2 seats!
so we had to catch the next movie at 9.30.

since we had plenty of time to waste,
we decided to talk a nice long walk to borders,
partly cos i wanted to check if they still had stephanie meyers box collection.
ytd was also the 2nd time i was crazy enough to wear heels to orchard.
PLUS, those shoes that i bought frm taiwan were wayy too small!!!
so i had to practically squish my big foot in.
and i only wore heels in a feeble attempt to look 18-ish.
believe me, i was this close to being handicapped.

it's no joke to walk in heels that were too small for your feet from orchard to borders.
its a good 20 minutes walk and i was so relieved to finally reach.
the sad thing was, the box collection set was FULLY SOLD OUT!
omg. i had no idea twilight had gained popularity in such a short time!~
now practically the entire world would be in love with edward.
met kristen and her mom there, they were also heading for borders and den to dinner.

i very nearly fainted at the thought of having to walk all the way back to cine in those heels.
by then, 3 very huge blisters had already formed on my feet and i was close to limping.
still had one more hour to go by the time we reached cine,
so we went to the coke lounge to get coffee for my parents and the computer for me.
as laggy as i am in the field of IT and technology,
i still can recognise a mac when i see one.
its really nice, but wayyy to classy and fragile for someone like me.
worse still, there was no internet so all i could do was play games like reversi, chess, tic-tac-toe and checkers with the computer.
i'm hopeless at chess as it already is, but playing against the com,
i looked like a total loser.
later i was joined by the guy who started playing checkers at the com beside me.
when he lost, he totally slammed his hand hard onto the table and gave me the shock of my life!
relax man, i thought he should be smart enough to noe that only geniuses could win computers against games like these.

finally, 9.30 came!
i had no trouble getting in at all,
i guess its cos i was with my parents so they didn't even bother checking.
so excited to finally get to watch harold&kumar.
i had already watched it beforehand on movie6.
but the movie quality sucked.

anyways, the movie still made me laugh like mad,
even though it was the second time i was watching it!
my mom laughed really loud too!!
it was surprisingly fun to watch that movie with my parents!
except it does get a little bit awkward now and then when those sick parts come on screen.
with my frens i could easily laugh it off,
but in front of my parents.. yeah. hahah.
btw, i jus realised that harold is kinda hot!
in this cute korean-ish way~
and kumar is forever the joker mann.
just looking at his face is enough to make you laugh!
a great great movie!

ohh yeahh, at the front of cine,
all those tiles had come off, making it extremely hard to walk,
especially with heels.
i was cursing those people who couldn't have chosen a better time to remove the tiles,
denn my dad told me that they were building this really cool system called plug and play.
where next time, people could actually just plug in their electric guitars into these post-like thingys that will be built there,
andd when they started playing,
the sound will come out from speakers and there will be lights and all.
pretty much like having a live band there.
but who would be so daring to actually plug in his guitar and play,
in the middle of cine?
he's either gotta be very good,
or really doesn't care if he produces all the noise pollution with his lousy guitar skills.
still, its not a bad idea at all.

ahhh the weather is killing me!!!!
its getting extremely hot nowadays.
still, i feel lucky i'm not stuck in the chem lab now,
which i should have been if there were school today.
that place is reallyy like a sauna at this time of the day.
