...Lo aNd BeHoLd...
As the lengthy title suggests, yesterday was a long yet fun and memorable day for me. In the morning I went with my aunty to SGH to get her stitches removed. The stitches at the back of her head looked like a series of thick stapler bullets had been embedded into her skin in a continuos 'railway track'. I'm glad that the stitch removal went well. Now all that is left is for the doctor to remove the entire length of cotton wool dabbed in antibiotics through her ear from the region where the operation was conducted.
After the hospital, I went to Raffles Place to buy Jill's birthday cake. Since she was at Shenton way for some office related work, some of us had decided to buy her a cake, bring it there and surprise her. Everything went very well and Jill was thoroughly surprised and touched. It was even more touching when Larry, Neville and I broke into a birthday song just for her as we all walked down the stairs of the building togather. Happy Birthday Jill!!
After parting with Jill and clan, I travelled to Takashimaya for dinner with buddies from my previous attachment. It was nice to see all of them once again. Although each of them are at least 5 years older then me, I have never felt the age gap. If fact, sometimes I think I'm the 'uncle' amidst them. Goes to show that age is really a number and its how you feel that counts. We had dinner at Breeks. I had the grilled Chicken there. It was not bad, neither was it amazingly nice. The portions of food were also quite small and unfilling. I'll give it 3 stars out of 5 stars. After the dinner, I went with Gloria and Wei Ren to one of the pubs in a hotel nearby. The ambience there was really amazing and the live band made it all the more magical. However, the service in terms of waiters tending to the visitors was not very good. However, I enjoyed myelf thoroughly. It is always the company that counts.
The last event of the day was the grand finale. I met up with the office gang once again to watch The Dark Knight at Marina. Since I was about to be late, I had to jog all the way from the Esplanade to Marina Square. The movie generally met expectations. I have never been a fan of Batman, so the fact that I did not fall asleep meant that the movie did have a degree of calibre and sophistication. The Joker acted brilliantly and the storyline really carried lessons that people should reflect upon and learn from. The movie did get draggy at certain points. However, the surges of action and energy at other points managed to neutralise the effect. I'll personally give it 3.5 stars out of 5 stars. After the movie, I took the night rider home. It dropped me at Hougang Mall from where I had to jog home.
Going to do some planning for the modules I intend to take in University next semester. So far I have, PC1142, PC2130, PC2131, PC2132, PC2193 and SSA2204.
