Yesterday was a blast with my chicas! It was me and Jocey’s joint (belated) birthday celebration, together with Iks. Our usual place, Sunway Pyramid. We met at around noon for lunch. We’ve already agreed earlier on to have KFC hehe. Must’ve spent about a little over an hour there. It was a nice lunch. We took turns to lay out our current problems in life and discussed about it, listening and advising each other. It was very deep personal conversations, which I enjoyed a lot. Despite being best friends, the 3 of us don’t get to meet often enough to talk like this I believe we’ve managed to calm each other down to hopefully solve the problems hehe.

After lunch, time to work off those finger lickin’ good calories! Shopping ^^ The plan was to go shopping for a new clothing item each for Jocey and myself as our birthday presents. So we went to Kitschen first, my favorite shop. Then to Cotton On. Then to Asian Avenue. Then went to look for Flame, a shop that we used to like for its dresses, but we couldn’t find it. Then to Miss Selfridge, then Topshop. Strangely we couldn’t find anything on that day! Weird. It was just not our day for good shopping =_= So we decided to take a raincheck on them presents, and give up for the day lol. Breaktime, Starbucks!! At the same time, we watched the videos of my performances at Talent Hub’s party, which I’ve saved into my thumbdrive, on Iks’ tiny laptop.

Then off to the movie! I hadn’t finished my frapp, so I wrapped it up, positioned it carefully into my big handbag, and smuggled it into the cinema If only I had ordered a grande size lol. We watched Disney’s A Christmas Carol. I know that Jim Carrey voices several of the characters, but I swear that he also acts them out before being animated! Cause the facial expressions and movements are sooo HIM! So funny la :P Now, before I watched the movie, I’ve heard reviews from my friends about it. All of them commented differently. “Best”, one said. Another one said, ”boring”. Another one thinks it’s ”scary”. My verdict? All of the above

It’s a classic tale. So naturally, lots of people will think classics are “boring”. Especially when Disney made the movie according to the classic story as it is, without twisting it to make it more light and fun like they usually did for the other fairytales. I don’t blame them for thinking it’s boring, but personally I’ve always liked A Christmas Carol since I knew about the story about 15 years ago, so I like the movie too. It was good! At least I think so So that’s the part that I agree being “best” lol. The spirit of Christmas, and the lessons the story brings about how to be a kind person, and not the horrible person Scrooge was and screw up your whole life because you stinge on money. Then the ”scary” part? Obviously the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future! Ghost of Christmas Past was kind of cute and funny. But right before he departed, it was quite a spooky scene >.< Ghost of Christmas Present was a little annoying with his jolly laughing. At the end of his life, it got creepy!! Then the Ghost of Christmas Future appears. In the form on a shadow shaped like Grim Reaper. Need I say more?? Yeah but all in all, I liked the movie ^^

After the movie, we went straight to the bowling alley. Wheee! Excited cause it was the first time that the 3 of us played together It was fun! I’m not gonna announce our scores here, or else Jocey will kill me lol. But I guess I’m quite happy with mine. Not that great, but better than my average last time :P At least I still got the skill hehe. So my training of learning how to spin didn’t go to waste after all ^^ In fact, I can’t bowl normally anymore haha. We had 2 games, which was pretty much ideal. 1 would be too little, and 3 is too much.

After bowling, we got hungry already after playing sports (cheh…). So we headed for our pre-planned dinner place: Sakae Sushi! Lots of salmon for myself and Jocey, Iks had her ramen, and we all ordered random plates from the menu til we’re full And talked some more. It never ends! Are we that kepoh? Perhaps. But then again, we don’t get to talk like this so often. Yup, we’re just maximising our rare full day outing together!

We all left shortly after that, all feeling so tired already but with happy smiles on our faces ^^ Oh how I wish that the girls were still staying in Melawati, nearer to me. I miss those days when I can just see them whenever I feel like it. Cannot meet outside also at least can crash their houses and accompany them in whatever they’re doing. Arghhh I miss them already! When will we gather again? Hmm… I’m hoping to make it a monthly thing. If possible ^^
