i finally caught the Batman Begins film with yan on thursday morning, courtesy of free complimentary passes i conveniently helped myself to from the workplace. started the day way way earlier than we normally would, partly due to the constraint movie timings, and partly to avoid the stinky and noisy schoolkid crowd. twas a good show, has a dark gloomy outlook to it. christian bale somewhat suits the role, and katie holmes looked very much like the sweet girl-next-door you'd wanna bring home to mom. though i think that some areas of the show has room for much more development to make us understand the whole story better. abit patchy ah.

aniwaes, we kinda splurged on ourselves at seoul garden after that. a very rare rare moment indeed. well mebbe not to others but for me patronising such places already is a step up from the normal budget places i frequent to. of course i binged myself on the char siew chicken, and definitely went round after round to the food display area to top up my plate. what i cannot understand though is why the heck is there a service charge totalling up to a freaking 10% when there isnt any form of service provided like what they do in restaurants and whatnots. and the whatever little bit of service that they do provide aint even worthy of such an amount. i think. bloody ripoff. and that was on top of a 5% GST. tsk tsk. well, out of it all, i enjoyed time spent with the missus. very seldom do we get to do stuff like that anymore. may the good times roll ahead more in the future ya.

my saturday was spent working in the morning til late afternoon, before rushing to meet the SA people in Marina. traffic to that area was a killer, because of the NDP rehearsal shit at the Padang. many roads were blocked, thus i had to circle round and round the Bras Basah, Bugis and Beach Rd area umpteenth times before i finally thought of a detour to reach Marina Square. headache man. those present were fadzly, najib, farihah & rizman, shahrizal & zaridah, hasibah, syed faizal, & me. i missed khaidir and SK, for they had to go off earlier. we had fun outwitting each other in bowling, where my rusty skills never failed to fail me when it matters. ended the day them with dinner and sheesha at a Bussorah Street cafe. twas great, meeting them after such a long time, ages perhaps, and catching up on the bits and pieces of each other's lives ever since the last meetup. talked, joked, and criticised like nobody's business. what i find good about it is that despite not having met for so long, the closeness was never lost among us. apparently they wanna make it a monthly thingy. yahahahahaha. abit ambitious me think, but ok we'll see. hahaha.

hope it can be the same with the Swiss fellas. yoohoooooo where are u all?

played court soccer on sunday morning with my new white Puma shoes (after much deliberation and saving up). panchit to the max, and lousy like hell. no form at all. this is no good.

ok dunno what else to blabber about. gonna rest. adios amigos.
