Tio "fined"
Can't imagine the non procrastinatory me lived to see this day -- fined for being late.
Ironically, I was the one who fully supported this idea to be enforced (since I don't always appear late) in order to avoid latecomers. In fact I was only 5 mins late. Stupid feeder bus. Else lao niang would be on time. TMD. Either way, late is late. Strictly no excuses. Was prepared for the fine nevertheless.
Irked me was that the farmers were in cahoots lor! Called Pwee the moment I reached PS and that girl actually told me non of them reached other then Chewzi and herself. I literally ran to the venue, arrived in forehead of perspiration and a dash of joy. Make me happy only. Never did I expect I was in for a malicious trap. Damn ree-tarrr-ded I was. Truth was, all except me reached before 2pm and hid somewhere else, waiting to ambush upon my arrival. Wicked kids.

In reluctance to accept the fact, or rather, shocked to find out I'm in a wicked setup.
And what was the fine? To tab the day's movie. 50 bucks spent for theirs and mine. Honoured my words with grace and passed the cash of 49 dollars (1 dollar tips for Pwee's administrative labours, heehee) to her.
Oh, we went to watch The Leap Years. Unrealistic love story based on Catherine Lim's novella. Starred Wong LiLin, Ananda Matthew etc. and special appearence by Joan Chen. Apparently, for a woman to see and anticipate the man whom she loved at first sight once every four years is almost impossible. That explains why I deemed it as unrealistic. Well, love novels are not called love novels if they are not mawkishly plotted against the real world aren't they?
However, I do like the dark humours here and there. Adds point to the movie. There was this particular scene I liked alot: The narration goes something like ".....my life is pretty much moving, but never moving on." while the cut showed Joan Chen (aged version of Wong LiLin) running on a threadmill. Brilliant way of presenting "moving but not moving on". Of course, the many quotes taken from famous poets adds colors to the movie.
