28 June 2008: Joel's outing

Sigh today's outing was not supposed to be too interesting since it's at a not-so-densely-populated Tiong Bahru (can tell from the way the cinema was less than a quarter full and that I managed to buy a row of 7 tickets less than 20mins before the movie) and there were only 7 people... but nevertheless still had a lot of fun...

To start off, well those who turned up originally were Mui Suan (1st time so late), Hui Min, Yuqun, me and of course Joel. So we were "forced" to look for more people who may want to come... and so it turned out, Jia Jun, who "had no money", promptly agreed to turn up as fast as possible after I promised to "subsidize" his movie ticket, tsk tsk, money-face... But it turned out that his mum gave him money after she knew about it, so I only needed to pay my own share haha=P

Sean came only just in time for the movie, cos he was busy showing off his talents at that Brands sudoku challenge... heard that he's already guranteed $100, nice 1... but he sort of cancelled that out, after he got tempted by me to stick his entire right arm into the hole at the armrest which was used to hold your drinks in the cinema... because his elbow got stuck at the wrong seat for about 10mins and if not for Yuqun who donated some of his precious drinking water onto his arm Sean would be watching the movie with his arm stuck there... Btw I got my arm out after I did that haha...

Oh yes, then Jia Jun "lost" his handphone right before the movie started... turns out that his phone slipped onto his seat, and when he stood up, the seat folded in and his phone dropped to the floor right under his seat... Ai ya ya... so much drama even before the movie started...

And before I forget, somebody by the name of Jeremy Lim attempted to "spoil our mood" by smsing us about GEMS moments before the movie started... sigh... and what's more, he sent an additional sms to Mui Suan to tell her to inform everyone around her... And so, here comes the lemma (by someone, i forgot who, was it Yuqun again?): "Mui Suan is Jeremy's loudspeaker." OOO...

On to the movie. It was really funny, and what's more interesting was that it seemed to be exactly what we were talking about our birthday boy Joel! The panda sitting onto the evil leopard, the leopard rebounding off the panda's tummy when it leaped at the panda (btw the panda didn't even move, tells us a lot about its MASS), and that the panda was really FAT made us wonder if the producer actually knew Joel or that Joel wanted to watch that movie because he already knew the storyline was going to be about him. So we were howling in laughter while drawing comparisons with Joel haha...

Then after Thursday's "unfortunate" event, Yuqun suggested if those things about me going out with "a-certain-very-important-person-in-my-life" but joined by "a-certain-someone-ELSE-that-shouldn't-be-following-and-can't-seem-to-control-his/her-mouth" then the entire "minus 448.6 degrees Farenheit" can tag along (or anyone else interested) and take turns to rebut snide remarks with even better ones... can imagine how it would be like...

Got some pics, but my com's screwed up, so can't upload... please bug yuqun for them... thanks...
