movie, dinner, pool, coffee

So it was another ordinary weekend. The party was different though - DD, Drk, Ceed, Guang and Tommy.

First up was the movie - The Coffin. I was never a fan of horror movies but since the group wanted to watch it I just tagged along. Sad as it was, horror movie have failed to do what it was supposed to do, to me. They were either too boring or too amusing. The Coffin is based on a true ritual in Thailand where people enter the coffins in an attempt to cheat death. What they didn't know is that bad karma can't be gotten rid of and comes back to haunt them. Overall the show is disconnected throughout and plot is predictable. Attempts to scare were pathetic and I managed, barely, to keep awake because of the loudness of the speakers.
Rating: Not a movie worth watching at the cinema.

We had Omu Rice by Ajisen, recommended by Ceed. Abit on the pricey side for the amount available, but food quality was manageable. I can't say I will eat it again though. Following dinner, we went for a short walk and thereafter abandoned by Ceed, Tommy and Guang.

Drk, DD and me went for some pool and settled for coffee at Starbucks. CJ joined us shortly after for a short chat. Due to the nature of participants involved, it seemed that no matter what we spoke of, the topic inevitably revolved around NS. Hard to blame, since we were NSFs or soon-to-be NSFs. CJ was rather worried for his field camp, an all too natural reaction. I had the jitters when I was just about to have my field camp as well. It will come to pass, no point worrying, cause when it comes to it, you just have to go through it.

On a side note, when people keep telling me 2 years pass by very fast, it kind of annoys me. When you are going through it, you have no idea how agonisingly slow it can be. For now I'll take it 1 week at a time.
