Forcefully ousted from the comfort of my own home to The Mandai Zoo, I am surely the weakest man in the world. Other than Thomas that is. I actually got psyched enough to look forward to the whole thing and was pretty excited about it. The last time I went to the zoo I think was in Primary 5?
Whose idea was it? Surprisingly not Zi, but a little kid from Mayflower Secondary I met in my LTB course in Sem 1. Taggers of my blog will know her as Oyce, Joyce, Jiang Shi, Oyster or the gal that screams “Jie Mei!” She’s a cute little gal and I think most of you would find her adorable. So anyway, she started off the day declaring that I was her Dad, Zi was her Mum and Thomas aka. Wolverine was her Grams (that’s short for Grandpa in case some of you a bit slow).
And so one big happy family we set off for a day of fun in the Zoo! It almost was like a family actually. I neglected Oyce because I was too busy looking at Cats, Mum was very fierce to Oyce and then she very scared to misbehave and the only person who was attending to her was Grams, who had really nothing much better to do and was leaving the world of the living soon anyways.
Fun fun fun! The cats were sooo cool. In case you didn’t know, I love cats even the fearsome and large cousins. I mean just stop to look at their form as the leap prowl and run. Cats are all at the same time powerful and agile yet graceful and regal.
Ooo. And I went to watch Mission Impossible 3 today. As was entirely expected of the movie, it was filled with action and quite a forgettable plot. I don’t even remember much of it anymore. Maggie Q was fiery on screen and Tom Cruise was well, Tom Cruise. But get this. The MI:3 I watched was most likely largely different from any MI:3 that any of you would have watched. Ah yes.. I watched the fucked up version of MI:3.
Allow me to elaborate. So anyway, there was this one scene where Ethan Hawke was making a getaway and at that point of time, the enemies pulled out guns and started shooting at them! And then at this time!!! The power tripped and the movie froze. Oh my GOD! Talk about a climatic finish to the escape scene! Lights came on and a on-screen apology was flashed and shortly after, the movie came on again and I had to re-watch the 5mins before the screen froze.
Then came the scene where they were escaping with hawt loot from the Vatican City. Just as the car pulled over and the good ol` switcheroo was about to be made, (Hang on for plot spoilers) OMGZ! The power tripped again! Flex for Cathay Cineleisure. This time they decided to get out and come back another day. The cinema was screwed and there was nothing we could do about it. KK THNX BYE!
No la kidding. What they did was to pop us over to the next theatre that was also showing MI:3 and we got to watch the past 30mins before the second power trip all over again. Somehow watching the same tense and exciting scene twice in 30mins made it much less exciting. Plus for a short period of time I knew exactly what each fella was going to say so it might have been a bit less fun. On the plus side, I was granted 30mins of clairvoyance by Cathay, beat that. Anyway, re-watching the scenes allowed to be observe in greater detail all aspects of the movie, well simply because I already knew what was going to happen. In one of the scene, the car in the background actually has a long paint scratch above the door handle! (I shit you not.)
Actually truth be told, the manager handled the whole thing quite well all things considering. So Cathay didn't actually do that bad. They basically gave us each a complimentary ticket valid for the next month.
Sigh* Zi is going overseas soon. I feel so lonely. Plus I have a fever right now. Sucks to be me.
Things on my mind:
Maggie Q
Maggie Q’s legs
Maggie Q’s back
Maggie Q’s boobies
