Is This Life??? (Imported From Xanga)

Took half day from work to meet up with [SM] for [Jumper] yesterday... I don't know abt him, but I was epxecting more considering it's from the director tt produces [Mr & Mrs Smith]... The later has good action, comedy and nice eye candy in the form of [Brad Pit]... [Jumper] though, has some action, subtle comedy and a barely there ending... The main character was nice to look @, but tt's beside the point... The point I'm trying to make is, it fell below my expectations... *Sigh* I wonder if there'll be any good movie tt's actually worth those expensive ticket price tt we're paying...

Haha... It's definitely not related but if you think abt it... Movies used to be worth the ticket price in the past... Yet when inflation slowly sets in, it's as though there's an inverse relationship b/w the price of movie tickets and the quality of the movie... Coincidence or a real fact??? You decide... LOL...

Do hope tt [L: Change The World] will @ least be decent... *Cross fingers*

Met up with [Bec] & [XP] @ [BP Interchange] before taking bus no. 700 to [SunTec]... It's only when the bus turned into [Shenton Way] and pass [The Esplanade] tt we realised tt the bus isn't going to [SunTec]... Seems like a change in the position of the bus lane @ the interchange equates to a change in bus routes as well... Or maybe we took 700A instead... -_-"'

We alighted the moment we realised my horrible mistake and decided to cross the road to take another bus back to [SunTec], like what the driver advised... However, when we cross the road, we realised tt there's no freaking bus stop, simply a taxi stand!!! WTH!!! The driver decided to play us out!!!

So we milled abt the taxi stand to look @ the tiny map tt's on display... It's @ tt precise moment tt [XP] suddenly realised tt the road we crossed is a bloody 1 way road!!! *Laughed till severe stomach cramp sets in*

Managed to get a bus back to [SunTec] @ the end anyway to meet up with [JY] as well as to attend the talks tt [NTU]'s holding... The talks ain't much... I was mainly there to ask abt the admission matters as I'm a little clueless abt all those terms on 'Major', 'Minor', 'Electives'...

I did managed to clear my doubts before we headed to [My. Playground] for some shopping... I saw some really nice pants with complicated strings designs!!! I'm so gonna buy them the next time I'm @ [SunTec] again... Haha... Saw those cosplay and lolita shops which are darn interesting... [MJ] must come with us the next time so we can all indulge in the [Jap] sub-culture...

Headed to [Popcorn Pop] next to look @ some movie posters which are darn nice... I was so, so, so tempted to buy some... I didn't @ the end as it's a fact tt I don't have enough wall space to display those posters... Besides, I want to preserve them, not simply stick them on the wall w/o any protection whatsoever, which means tt I need frames... Which then means tt I have to go to [Ikea]... Lazy moi decided to stop thinking after this and not buy the poster... LOL...

Headed back to the talk just in time for the last [Biz/Accountancy] talk before bidding farewell to [Bec], leaving the 3 of us to walk to [Bugis Street] to window shop before parting with [JY], leaving both me and [XP] heading towards [West Mall] for [SubWay] dinner...

Overall experience for the day: Extensive travelling (read: money being injected back to the country's economy), lots of good, clean fun and tons of bimbotic moments... It's a pity tt I didn't catch the opportunity to ask more abt the [PS3] which I so badly wanted to buy... The consolation however, was the sight of the wireless controller in use... It's so cool!!! Gyyaaa~!!!

Conversation b/w [XP] & [LeiLa]...

Setting: Both were in the train heading towards [West Mall] and [LeiLa]'s hugging the pole while [XP]'s sitting down...

[LeiLa]: How I wish I'm hugging something tt radiates heat instead of a pole... *Grins*

[XP]: I can use a lighter and heat the pole... Tt way, it'll also radiate heat...

[LeiLa]: ... -_-"'
