I HAVE SERIOUSLY
BLACK PANDA EYES! Oh man, today's actually quite eventful. Jo and I went for the X-men movie, 10.40am, yes, the earliest slot and it's probably the first time I manage to get a sit that isn't in the front row (that can give one quite a bad neck strain while trying to look all the way up above to watch the big movie screen). Err, I'm always one of the later few to book movie tickets, but today was record breaking. The X-men movie was really such a thriller, although I must say the plot is like, err, SUCKY. Magneto's (jo's fallen for him!!!) supposed to be totally human and lose every bit of his mutant blood or power, cos' he had like four power jabs of the "cure". And it only takes one for any other mutant to transform into normal humans and lose their mutant powers forever. The last part showed him sitting down on this old chair playing chess with other humans around him (to supposedly show that he's PROBABLY human in the end) and when Magneto (sitting by himself; he looks awfully sad and devastated) stretched out his hand to move the chess counters (they're metal ones mind you), the counters started to vibrate and tilt a little. THE END. That's how it ended. And jo's friend told us to stay behind for the afterbit. 10 mins of credits and all we got was like 5 seconds of !#%$*@. Guess what, Professor Xavier lived, that's what we saw; a doctor who was attending to her patient said "Professor?", and it's really the end. After being smashed into bits by the all powerful and dark Jean Grey aka
Dark Phoenix, and he's still alive in the end! I bet all the other mutants killed by Jean earlier on , and who suffered the same fate as Professor X before, should by some means, came back alive again. Wow. *snuffs* I'm really telling most of the story now. So I guess I should stop for those who hasn't watched it yet.
Jo is too thrilled with the effects, (although I don't think it really enticed and captivated unlike LOTR) and apperently she didn't watch any of the X-men shows before. She went like, who's Wolverine. (One of the most prominent and main character) Well, I think I've been to busy criticising this movie, so I'd give it some compliments too. One sentence:
The movie was so captivating and exciting that I gave up eating my LAYS POTATO CHIPS BBQ FLAVOURED to concentrate on the movie. (No, I don't multi-task) Yes, I managed that!
To the Aviva! Boo #1; Had to walk super long a distance under the intense fiery heat to get to the Indoor Stadium, but I think jo enjoyed the walk... Boo#2; I used the conscience-tickle on my friend and made him come along when he asked if he could skip it, cos he agreed earlier on. But what I didn't know was that he had a headache after training and did not feel like coming after that. I feel so guilty. Boo#3; I thought the audience would be filling at least half of the indoor stadium, but I think only about 100 turned up. Why?! No mass audience participant (the cheering part), no fun at all. In fact, it soon turned boring cos it was so quiet! Boo#4; my favourite team/player, Danish for that fact, did not turn up, probably in the next qualifying round tomorrow. I was looking forward to watching them play. Only one caucasian I saw, RICE (jo and I aren't sure whether that's her country or her name). YAY#1 and the only one 'yay'; I friggin' saw my SSS badminton player!!! I even started skipping around which shocked jo I guess. He's so adorable and he plays good...obviously he needs to play good cos' I wouldn't like him if he totally missed that skill factor. I was just talking about him earlier on and ranting away on how I'd be there in the Indoor Stadium in the future to see
my favourite SSS badminton boy play in the Aviva Open, and to think that he just popped out of nowhere in the Indoor Stadium. He was sitting in the last role so I got jo to sneak up a shot of him. But Boo#5; this man, I think he's the SSS coach or the SSS boy's parent, kept staring at jo and I. He stood near him. So even if jo tried to take a shot at the SSS boy, we risked being spotted (though I guess the sole reason why the man was staring at us was because he found jo and I suspiciously loitering around and holding onto our phones) and glared at by the man. I had a shot, neither near a shot nor clear a picture, the side view of the SSS boy. How pathetic can I get?!? Shake me. I can easily get the group pic from the SSS website but it's not personal at all! Uh-uh, not at all. So anyway, this is the best it gets for me now. Aha, I didn't now I could get so happy over such sheer coincidence (even though the SSS boy doesn't know someone's stalking...I mean...oogli...i mean...admiring him. And his skills, which I must put an emphasis on lest you guys thing I'm nuts). WHOOOHOO!
