After doing volunteer work at the office last evening, I decided I wasn't going to go home and rot away the rest of my weekend. The long nights spent at the office the past week made me feel that I needed to go out for a breather. Called WW and he was having tuition. Oh well, i told him nevermind and I went ahead myself. Then while I was in the queue at Lido to buy a ticket for "Lost in Translation" , I suddenly got a call from him. Bought two tickets in the end and spent some time walking around in Kino and Borders when he finally reached Orchard.

It's nice to have company from a friend who's been by your side for about eight years. When we meet, we always have a lot to talk about. No stress at all about fearing silence. So we were talking and finding a place to have dinner when we realised that it was crowded everywhere. Saw a colleague at Wheelock place. At least I think I recognised the right person. Didn't say hello though.

In the end, we went to the best place to have dinner. KFC. There were quite a lot of seats. I ate pop corn chicken which is what PL always tells me that it's the worst thing to order because you never know what kind of meat goes into it. Oh well, nevermind. I didn't manage to finish it in the end anyway. We were planning on eating Fish fan but it is silly to eat fish in KFC so WW ordered nuggets and I had whipped potato other than popcorn chicken. He looked a little disgusted when I mixed up the rest of the whipped potato and then signalled that I was going to put the bbq sauce in as well. Hahaha. Anyway, I was quite touched even if I didn't show it yesterday. WW named the 10 most important friends in his life when a related topic came up and I was pleasantly surprised. It's not anything about feeling the "I'm in the top ten!" kind of feeling. I also don't know how to describe the exact feeling but I'm really glad. Anyway, you're also in my top ten, even if I don't say it aloud. Thanks for always being around.

The movie was okay. I didn't get to watch Coppola's first film, "The Virgin Suicides" so I don't know if she has improved or not. I didn't really get what "Lost in Translation" was about. Maybe if you do watch it, let me know what you think of it. So far the reviews I have read are mixed. Either you really hate it or think that the various subtleties were great. For me, maybe I'm too dense to catch on to the many subtleties in the film.

After the movie, we joined our secondary school friends over at Kallang, near the cosybay place. We sat on the clock and talked. The place is really very different from what it used to be like back in secondary school. Thoroughly enjoyed myself looking at the surroundings. Very beautiful. Even if I got scolded for returning home close to 2 a.m., I was really glad that we went.
