Pirates 2.

Completely random, Yohei asked if we want to go for a movie. After deciding on Pirates 2, I suggested that he and Eva go and purchase the tickets first. Off they went and back at around 7.45pm. "Movie's at 8.45pm", he said. Still an hour to go, we had dinner, fruits and dilly-dallied till 8.30pm before heading to the cinema.

Reached there just in time to buy some popcorn and drinks and entered the cinema slightly over 8.45pm. "You guys are late!" the ticket collecter said. Only late 5 minutes what...

We walked into the completely dark cinema and searched for 4 empty seats (seats here are not numbered... chiiiit). The seats we found are quite near to the screen but what the heck. Too dark to search for better ones. So there we were, watching (SPOILERS!) Will Turner, his father and that disgusting octopus in the scary looking ship. I was watching it and thinking about the possible scenes that we've probably missed out 5 minutes ago.

So many things happened and the next thing we knew, the movie ended. HUH?! We were just 1 hour into the movie and the credit rolled up. What the hell!! Almost immediately, I asked Yohei if we went into the wrong cinema. He took out the tickets and said we were in the right cinema. I grabbed the tickets from him and scanned it. 7.30pm. He bought the 7.30pm tickets instead!!

He and Eva said they requested for 8.45pm and is very certain about it. Chhiittt. They gave us the wrong tickets and we didn't realise it until the movie ended. Basically, we missed out the 1st hour of the movie and watched the end part instead. So pissed!!!

Yohei suggested that we talk to them and ask them for refund or exchange. Sorry-la, but Malaysian mentality, you think they will exchange/refund for you after you've watched the movie? I told Yohei that but everyone insisted to try.

The cinema people proved me wrong and they were so professional about the whole thing. We talked to a ticket collector and told him our situation. He beeped someone on his talkie and told us to meet this guy downstairs at the box office. There, we repeated the whole story and almost immediately, offered us 4 complimentary tickets without asking further questions. CUSTOMER SERVICE! This is something Malaysia gotta learn!!

We're gonna go again probably this Saturday to catch the beginning part of the movie...

Bumpity Bump.

The flight back to Auckland was bumpy. The stooooopid travel agent did not reserve a seat for me as per instructed and hence I was left with no aisle seat. Getting stuck in the middle is another thing. Getting stuck in the middle seat on the last row (of the entire plane) is just toooooo much. It was bumpy and noisy and no privacy as I was directly beside the washroom.

I managed to swap my middle seat with a nice Kiwi man. Told him I needed to go to the washroom quite frequently and it would be a hassle and inconvenient to wake him up all the time to let me go. Guess that did the trick as he generously offered me his aisle seat. Thanks alot!

I was slightly homesick when I touched down in Auckland. :/

Can't wait for this semester to end! Hahahahaha!

Sigh.

9 days more and I'll be back at NZ.

Shit laaaaaa.

Don't feel like going back. I know I'll get homesick all over again.

The thought of classes starting soon is not helping too. Four level 7 papers will kill me! I took only three level 6 papers last semester and I was already struggling.

Sigh.

I so wanna stay back here instead of going back to NZ.

:(

사랑해도 될까 - Can I Love You?


Powered by Castpost

Heard my Korean housemates sing this song at the karaoke and at Kate's party. Always wondered what's the title and by whom. Finally managed to find it. This is currently the top song in my playlist!

Here's the translated lyrics;

The door opens
You come in
I knew it was you
Walk to me
Show me your face
It is so beautiful
It looks familar
My heart is beating
You have taken my heart
I will tell you now
I will be brave
Can I love you now?
This is my first time
I don't want to miss it
Love has arrived
I will do the very best
It looks familar
My heart is beating
You have taken my heart
There were so many cries and tears
But I finally meet you
Can I love you,
the one sitting in front of me?
My heart is beating
I'll do the very best
Can I love you?

So cheeeeeessssy la. So Korean. :p
