Badminton, movie.

Hello! I just realized my blog posts doesn't have dates accompanying them.

Yesterday, Tuesday (8/12/09)

As discussed, met Yong Jian, NJL and Yuxin at Hougang Sports Hall for badminton. When we arrived at the courts, there was a group of adults playing. Its pretty weird as when they saw us, a friendly auntie came forward to tell us that their game was finishing. At least she's friendly. So after awhile, around 5 minutes I think, we started playing as they cleared. Its been quite awhile since I last played badminton. June was the last I could recalled. I used to play badminton alot when I'm a little younger, but guessed due to the lack of badminton kaki nowadays, my skills kind of rusted already.

Our court was from 10 to 11 in the morning, but after 11 no one seemed to have booked the court, so we continued playing. We ended at around 1215 and slacked. Chatted and crapped, then around 1250 moved off. Initial plan was to meet at AMK hub at 2pm to catch New Moon at 2.30pm, but we had to catch the 3.30pm one as we couldn't make it in time.

Went to Yong Jian's place to shower and change before heading out. NJL was joking that I'm heading off to play badminton after the movie as I was still holding on to the racquet, haha. Met with the group, including Yuxin's sister @ Mac. Yong Jian and NJL played a little virtua tennis on PSP before we went to the cinema. Sheesh, I guessed its been a long time since I last bought pop corn from cinemas, and I think its kind of expensive. But I wished the counter crew Merry X'mas before leaving! Hall 5, the advertisement were still showing.

(Of vampires, wolves and a desolated lady)

Before I watched this movie, I've heard of how people said this movie wasn't that great as the first one, or it does not much tally with the real story from the book. I've read the Twilight Series of books last year, so probably catching it up was reasonable. No offence to the die-hard twilight fans, but I had to agree that the movie wasn't awesome. In fact, its boring. Lucky for friends, we crapped halfway in the movie quietly. NJL was saying how she paid $6 to see Taylor Lautner, whom played the character Jacob in the movie taking off his shirt most of the time and revealing his buffed-up upper torso. I was looking forward to Jane, played by Dakota Fanning. The young guy in me was disappointed. Instead, I think Alice looked so much better. Oh yes! As compared to the first film, Edward drove a Volvo XC70 now instead. I think the C30 was still better. Alice drove two, one is a black AMG if I'm not wrong, and the other yellow porsche 911. I think these cars are more exciting instead. The ending was priceless, for we didn't even know the show finished until the lights came on. LOL. It was that abrupt. Eclipse is next year? We'll see then haha.

After the movie, walked around before going to AMK library to return my storybooks. Went in to slack a little, while we discussed our plans softly. We realized most of the people were either working or were overseas already. The four of us were the few ones left available. Yuxin left earlier as she had to fetch her little sis. Meanwhile, we continued discussing and somehow came to an idea. Haha, it would be exciting and fun I guessed.
:)

Lastly, I moved on. Heh.

Thanks you NJL. LOL!
