Rescue team

After that mind numbing news, I needed something to take my mind off things.

I just wanted to hang out with friends who would be able to hear me out without judging me.

I needed ears to listen and not to criticize or advice.

To do what I wanted to do.

Initially I asked Sze-Mien out only for coffee...I ended up spending the night with Sze-Mien, JoFo and Keat - dinner and movie.
You guys have no idea how much it helped.
Not that I was really depressed or anything...I just felt funny. Just needed some company doing some things.

The jam was...as usual lah from Subang to Damansara using the NKVE. The rain didn't exactly help either.
I told JoFo our ETA at OneU was 737pm...


...this picture was taken at 725pm. By the time we got up the escalator (time in between was spent contemplating on taking pictures and contemplating on asking SM to take a picture of me lying in the middle of the parking lot), it WAS 737pm. Freaky, yea.

I'm just really good lah.
*haha*

Anyway, when we got to B2 (I expected it to be crowded so I didn't want to try going into B1 to park), I looked at SM and asked, "Err...we ARE in OneU, right?"

The parking lot was empty! Okay...not empty literally but compared to the normal traffic and capacity, it's considered empty!

"I think we just drove into a parallel universe!"

We were both laughing like maniacs in the car, wondering which parking lot to take! It's THAT crazy.

Look at the picture above. Behind Phoebe, those parking lots were EMPTY! And on the right of it (behind me), more empty lots!

I was still in disbelief when I was walking towards the escalators and I saw some cars (but leaving!) and asked SM, "Was there an evacuation notice that we didn't know?!"

It was pretty scary. Even in OneU itself, it was quite empty and quiet...

[Will load some pictures from phone later that I took of how empty it was. Left cable in Seremban]


We had dinner at Delicious.
Sze-Mien and I went up to check out the tickets for TheGoldenCompass...we ended up buying tickets 3rd row from the front (when if we got confirmations from everyone, Keat could've bought 4th row from the front...oh well! Not much difference, kan?)


JoFo ordered the Four Cheese Macaroni.
It may look like a small portion but it's got a punch packed in it!


Keat's Roasted Duck and Pomelo Salad.


I had everything! I wanted a few items, so I ordered and shared with the rest (except for the scones)
Scones, Fried Calamari and Wedges


Sze-Mien's Duck Confit Spaghettini.

You can tell when SM's hungry...when her food arrives, she'd be really quiet and swift! *hehe*


Picture taken 829pm...


Picture taken 840pm...mind you, this is not when she just finished her meal. It's when she's rested and wiping her mouth.
So in total, it was probably 9 to 10 minutes. *hehe*

I tried JoFo's macaroni (skipped Keat's because I do not fancy salads) and wanted to turn to my left to ask SM...but I stopped when I saw how fast she was taking in her food...I didn't dare ask for a bite to try.
*hehe*

She WAS famished. During lunch (which was at 3pm), there wasn't much left to choose from in the cafeteria. Poor thing!


Turquoise. Colour matching, kan?


Keat's t-shirt. So since he is going out with 3 girls at one time, would that make it "Bestest"?


A blurred picture in the cinema at 939pm.

The movie was supposed to start at 940pm...but the commercials started then! It was a bit freaky because when we got in, there was no one! It was completely empty. We thought we walked into the wrong cinema (again! *haha*)

Before walking to cinema13, I very eksyen said it was cinema3. After going to the toilet, we walked into cinema3. Our seats were number 3-6.
As I walked in, I walk to our supposed position, which was 3rd row from the front and in middle of the row.

I was puzzled when the 2nd seat was numbered "6" and as I got towards the middle, the numbers were increading! I was very puzzled until I decided to look at our tickets again and it was "13" instead of "3" - I kept thinking about 3rd row from the front...so I thought it was cinema "3", seeing there was a "3" on the ticket.

Oh my! It was crazy. I had to whisper to JoFo who was near me, "Let's go, let's go. Wrong cinema lah!" while suppressing my laughter till when we got out of the cinema.

*hehe*

Champion is me.

Thank God there wasn't anyone sitting in those the seats if not I would have even embarrassed myself further by asking people to get out of "my seats".

*shy*

By the time we got to the right cinema, we did a double take to see if it's really the right cinema this time. SM suggested that because we came in thinking it was cinema3, maybe cinema13 wasn't highlighted for "NowSeating" at the front...

We sat down for a good 5-8minutes or something without anyone coming in. The cinema was completely empty!
So I asked Keat to quickly snap a picture of us - which resulted in the blurry picture above - before the cinema suddenly went dark and the commercials started rolling. Talk about impeccable timing!

Then JoFo HAD to talk about All Soul's Day in Ipoh.

"Yer...after suddenly look at the back got bottles of mineral water on the seats like in Ipoh for All Soul's Day. They say they will run the shows in empty cinemas for the souls...in those old school type of cinemas."

Thanks, JoFo.

All of us were freaked out and kept looking to the back for signs of people coming in.

Finally a couple came in and that started the rolling in of the crowd. The cinema was quite full and the movie lasted for almost 2hours.

Another freaky part...when the movie started (both SM and I don't know nuts about the movie or the book) and they spoke about parallel worlds, SM and I looked at each and she said, "It's a sign!"

***

I match my phone today.
*hehe*


Look! And even with my bags and towel!
Was wearing the necklace Kohpu gave me for Christmas. *wub wub!*

Talking about phone, I don't even know when did this happen but I only saw it when I was fiddling with it while waiting for SM to get off work.


Can you see it?


Crack ady! You can't really see it unless the keypad's lighted up or if you use both thumbs and push both ends of the keypad.
Still...after finding out about it, I feel a bit irritated that my phone is not in "perfect" condition anymore.
