Last night we managed to catch Zoolander at TM. Hurried like mad after work, met Maj at Tg Pagar MRT – Maj very embarassingly managed to maneurve his way through the crowd, and got 2 seats for us in the crowded train, haha. So ahpek2 kejar seat sort of person eh. Reached TM, he went to buy tickets and drinks, I went to buy food from Mcdonalds and hid it inside my bag and ran upstairs, and we were about 5 minutes late for the movie.
In case there are people reading this who thinks that smuggling food into movie theatres is very bad, I agree with you. I don’t normally do that, but we just got back from work, and we get very hungry after work everyday 😀
Anyhoos. Zoolander is sooo funny!!
Ok, not like Korean movie LOL funny, but if you listen to the (stupid) dialogue, it’s so kelakar. I went to google up some quotes and found some –
Derek: Do you understand that the world does not revolve around you… and your “do whatever it takes, ruin as many people’s lives”… so long as you can make a name for yourself as a journalist… no matter how many friends you lose… or people you leave dead and bloodied along the way… just so long as you can make a name foryourself as a journalist… no matter how many friends you lose… or people you leave dead and bloodied and dying along the way?
(I laughed like mad during this part! I love it when Ben Stiller does this in his movies – talk nonstop on full speed – he had something like this in DodgeBall too, and if I’m not wrong, in Starsky & Hutch too)
–Â
Derek: I was at the Day spa. D-A-I-Y-E.
–
Maury: Derek, what do you do when you fall off the horse? You get back on! That’s what this business is all about!
Derek: Sorry, Maury. But I’m not a gymnast.
–
Matilda: Derek, Derek?
Derek: What do you want?
Matilda: Actually I’m trying to talk to Mugatu but he’s tougher to get to than the president.
Derek: Oh, I thought you were gonna tell me what a bad “eugoogolizer” I am.
Matilda: A what?
Derek: A “eugoogolizer.” One who speaks at funerals. Or did you think that I would be too stupid to know what a “eugoogoly” was?
(Quotes taken from here and here)
The whole plot was quite nonsensical, but the dialogue quite funny lah.

After the movie, we went to the bookstore, I bought a Joy Fielding book, and then we walked to 147, I took a cab home and he went to kdkopi.
Today I might be meeting him for lunch.Â

erm. i dunno what i can do about that, because wordpress does the template for us, you see. so i just choose whichever one I want, but I can’t change anything on it – so yeah there’s no way I can insert the time, unless I choose another template.
or i guess i could sign off with the time, but that would be stupid if i were to change to another template which has the time thing in it already.
OMG. I’m confused. Can I just tag the time at your blog, whenever I update a post??
