mind, body, heart and soul
Okay now I have this plaster wrapped around my left index finger (which is next to the thumb) and it hurts really bad because somehow it's swollen and I don't know how it got swollen. As a result, I can't use my index finger to type and I can only use the other three of my five fingers which makes my typing slow and also, I don't know how I'm going to play DotA later. Moving on...
Today was a cool day which kicked off with Manchester United FC beating Celtic 3-0. Get it? Kick-off? Football? Then at 10am, met Matthew at Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station before setting off to Paradiz (is that the place) Evolution Square LAN centre for 3 good games of DotA with the rest of the usual people. Good, fun but unsuccessful. Moving on again...
Then we (Matthew, James and I) left at about 2.30pm to meet Lawis at Bishan MRT Station to watch the prestigious movie 20th Century Boys, which had Lawis and Matthew swooning over on MSN the previous night. Well, we had Subway for lunch and I came to the fortunate realisation that Subway is indeed nice even though it was my second time eating there. I definitely will eat there again. Italian BMT and Chocolate Chip Cookies woahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
Then, came the movie which basically kicked off with this really great trailer of an upcoming movie which looks very cool to a large extent. Okay, I think this movie is titled The Day The Earth Stands Still and it stars Keanu Reeves, I think... Then there was this funny VISA commercial starring an indian couple, though I strongly believe we mistook the meaning in the commercial. Indians and banks don't make a good commercial for ironic reasons and that was capped by this funny line when they sung "mind, body, heart and soul". Hahahahahahaha.
But that, unfortunately, was about the best parts of the movie. Yeah, the movie hadn't even started then. At first glance, I thought the movie had a nice plot whereby this group of guys drew this book which dictates the destruction of the world before some heroes (themselves) pop up to save the world. As it turns out, one guy defected from the group who made this book and eventually made the destruction come true. The rest is just nonsense. All four of us had high hopes for this movie as it had the "highest production cost" and it was the "#1 box office" thingy. But as soon as the movie ended, our disappointment was most evident when James clutched his head in agony, Matthew wailing loudly in the cinema and Lawis apologising frantically. Me, on the other hand, felt we should wait for the after-credits which we didn't, of course.
Then, it was time to go home and on the way to the train station and on board the train, everyone should have heard James complain about the movie in typical Kwong fashion.
"Screw it la, 20th century boys my ass lor, what has that got to do with the movie? It's damn stupid."
-James, on the movie in general
"Fuck Kenji la, fuck the movie la, fuck them all la. Fuck la..."
-James, in response to my comment that the protagonist (Kenji) was stupid
"Damn stupid lor, they show some erotica scene, then the woman and the guy never even have sex or anything, so lame... Only showing the woman for fun only lor, I don't even know what she's for, seriously"
-James, raining heavy criticism on the movie
"I thought the movie was Taiwanese, cos I heard on radio this Taiwanese movie topped Dark Knight. Then I realised this movie wasn't Taiwanese, it's Japanese..."
-James, mistaking Taiwanese for Japanese
"See, this is why I only watch English movies."
-James, upholding his preference of movies
Ta-dah, that's about all for today and I hope the subsequent days will be more fun.
