wmp: the doves, caught by the river

t'was the ccis course not too long ago, a few days back. jj, jeff and i caught 300 on one of those days in the evening. i didn't think i'll get the kicks out of the film since i've read the graphic novel long before but many of the scenes, i felt, were refreshing and captivating still. i would go as far as to describe it as an epic movie on a whole new level.

the course ended early and thursday was a half day. we decided to meet up again after heading home to drop our bags and have a change of clothes. jeff's passport took awhile. then we headed to spawn asia at stamford house where i had no luck looking for king leonidas. we made a quick trip to the falcon's hanger at far east plaza only to be told it was sold out too. fucking disappointing.

i joined the both of them in a game of dota eventually but got my head pawned for gold throughout. i fared better in counter-strike but still had my fair share of deaths as well. it was 9pm when we decided to leave. if the following fucking day wasn't a working day i wld have wanted to spend the night out. bask in the nightlife. not go home, just yet. it was just unfortunate...

i woke up on friday morning contemplating a trip to the polyclicnic and remembered ice was ord-ing on that day itself. t'was a cohesion in the late afternoon. we had fun but i would have left earlier if i wasn't tied down by branch duty that night. the lethargy was killing me. i was on the verge of falling sick and i cld feel it. had a bad runny nose in the middle of the night and true enough i woke up to a call from kl with a flu the next morning.

i made a decision. a decision to apply for membership at kinokuniya. along with a book titled 'chi running' for my dad, i grabbed marvel zombies and neil gaimen neverwhere too with my newly acquired entitlement(10% off, yeah). i can't believe marvel zombies would actually sell out with such a childish plot. the art from neverwhere wasn't what quite i had imagined too (i wld have prefered it much darker).

what a waste of money.
