Secret War Journal[17 June 2011][Long Post]
Joining me today for today's meeting would be my 4D class clique namely, Christopher, Jing Ting, Lai Yin, Jing Ying and Guan Hui.
Despite Lai Yin asking us to bring kites for today, I didn't. Ha!
I wasn't intending to fly one since I just had one a few days back. Nevertheless, I still end up playing kite. Hahas!
--
After much kiteflying without much result (since it was hard to sustain the height that our kites reach), we headed out of the fields for lunch.
There was much debate as to what we should eat for lunch (we had been discussing this for ages. Hahas!)
After taking a slight detour, we decided to stop by Anchorvale Community Centre for lunch. Since Jing Ying was a vegetarian, we had instant noodles for lunch at 7 Eleven. XD
A bit pathetic but who cares? Hahas! Meanwhile, we played Monopoly Deal!
A pretty long game at that too, I wonder why I was slow in playing just now? Must be mentally tired, I guess. :S
Next up! We're now in Downtown East. As the heading above already revealed, the movie we're watching is Mr Popper's Penguins!
Actually, most of us had no real clue what movie was about (sorry for being an idiot? :p) and the idea was brought up by Lai Yin.
I can't really give much opinions about this movie since I had no real expectations.
Well, it's sorta funny? Hahas! But not as funny as Bruce Almighty.
Personally, I feel that the movie would look better if the Transformers movie trailer was not shown before this movie was played because the awesome action-packed scenes in the trailer really killed the mood for the actual movie because the contrast was too great.
My second time here! Hahas!
Originally, we wanted to go play pool or arcade. But....
For the pool, the place was packed and hence there were no available tables for us to play. XD
For the arcade, we didn't have the card to play there. Hahas.
Therefore, we ended up at JustAcia for our wonderful dinner. :)
Three of us had Herbal Chicken Rice Set. Jing Ting had Spicky Chicken while Jing Ying had Kimchi. It was nice! You should try it in the future. Continued playing Monopoly Deal until it was time to go home. :)
Alright, the time has come to shed an ounce of truth of what had conspired since last year. Since the event was officially over, I personally conclude that it is quite all right to disclose what happened.
Like one of my friend who recently revealed on my tagboard, there was a prank regarding my birthday a couple of months ago.
However, all these were anything but a part of the preparation for today.
You see, with the arrival of facebook, birthday greetings had been slammed with a feeling of insincerity since people would login into Facebook and find out that it's your birthday on that day itself.
Not much meaning is there? Thus, I conspired to hide my birthday on Facebook. Got a number of pals to post birthday wishes on my 'birthday'.
The objectives were two-fold - An excuse to hide my real birthday and mislead other people who didn't know when my birthday was into thinking my birthday was then.
The latter helps, in theory, to prevent people from getting cues from facebook posts on my wall later during my actual birthday. Thus, it serves as a form of confusion. Of course, it's only in theory, there are people who will vaguely remember and see through this amateur plot.
Nevertheless, today's post is actually meant to be a thanksgiving post. I would like to say my plan work relatively well and I would like to thank all of you for making my birthday so significant this year. After all, it's the thought that counts. :)
By chronological order:
