Dy-ed

Thursday being post-Jessica’s birthday, we went to Pyramid with Shawn’s car for dinner. After walking around for a bit, we (Shawn, Heng, Andy, Jess, me) finally settled for Fish & Co which reduced my wallet’s contents to near zero, although the food and drinks were great.

The only pic I took on Wednesday night at Pizza Uno, before my batteries went completely dead. We were lighting up Jess’ birthday cake.

Hilarious Jay Chou figurine we saw at AnimeTech.

Heng and Jess.

Shawn and Jess acting cool, heheh.

We walked around again after that, then fetched Jess home before returning to Shawn’s house at about 10pm plus for a session of Mahjong. We played till about 3am, and after proclaiming “last round lah” for ten times, we ended up playing further till 4am. Crazy. Andy went home with his own car, while Heng and I spent the night on Shawn’s sofas.

Woke up the next day at 10am, went back at 11am plus, lunched at my house, played my DS and slept because I was damn tired. Woke up again at 3pm something by Shawn’s call asking me to wash my hair and get ready, and I did just in time the moment Yen arrived with Shawn and his dad to pick me up.

The Koh family was out for some spot of shopping and brought home tons of stuffs. We picked up Heng on the way, and settled on our usual mahjong table the various hair dyes and solutions I know nothing of. Yep, it’s dyeing time at Shawn’s hair salon! I’m up for trying new stuffs, because it’s sort of a philosophy of mine to try anything at all in life except for things that destroy your very being: ie, drugs.

The various products we were gonna use.

Yen reading Hair Dyeing for Dummies a manual from one of the dyeing products. She will be our hairstylist for the day, with an unrelated diploma in industrial design.

Heng mixing the solution.

Some of the liquid stank, literally.

Heng reeling in horror as the hairstylist with no proper credentials worked on his hair.

We rested after Yen worked with our hair. We proceeded to play Mahjong until it was time for the three of us (including Shawn) to wash the hair with shampoo and conditioner.

Our hair turns out to be just fine (thanks Yen!) although Shawn now resembles the big boss of all VCD peddlers. Rofl. LALACHAI OMG.

We went back at 6pm, then at 7.30pm left home under the heavy rain to Summit, picking up Wai Hong and Kai Tzin on the way. We parked outside Summit (not supposed to do that, of course), ran hurriedly to the cinema on the highest floor, and met up with Daniel, Ah Sa and Teck Seng.

Final Destination 3 was nice; if you’re interested in a movie with a unique storyline (was attracted with the general idea of death as a force from FD2) with gory deaths, you’ll find FD3 to be interesting, despite them reusing the same concept all over again: girl gets premonition of deaths, stopped deaths from occuring, and now Death chases after the people who skipped their deaths in a most vicious manner.

I can’t tell which I liked better between the two FDs I watched, but I personally felt FD3 to be better, despite the rather.. abrupt ending.

The one semi-related rant I have is how the movie is rated U, while movies like Underworld 2 is rated 18SG. Final Destination 3 and the rating U doesn’t seem to click together. The fuck? Oh yeah, our Malaysian censorship idiots must have thought that werewolves must be more traumatic to the younger audience compared to the raw, brutal deaths that the characters in FD3 have to go through, from having half of your head cut off with a moving, sharp, rotating blade with brain matter and other red fleshy stuffs spitting out themselves, to having nails shot through your head repeatedly.

It’s either a good or a bad thing, depending on your point of view, but the censorship has failed to cut what I thought would shaken up the old conservative minds heading the censorship board, such as words like “dick”, “fuck” and “bitch” to the middle finger signs. Ah, they must be getting liberal, what with them giving FD3 the U rating while Underworld 2 gets 18SG instead.

I want to watch movies that won’t get censored repeatedly. Go to the cinemas and watch any shows rated for those 18 and above and you find plenty of cuts. Yay. Which is why we still frequent our beloved Ah Chongs down the streets selling pirated DVDs.

Movie ends at about 9.40pm, so we went to play pool and foosball at the usual area near the cinema. We exited Summit at about 11pm, after discovering the entire place was locked and we were trapped within. A guard showed the way out in the end.

Went back to my house, and Andy who was already waiting in his Waja, picked the whole lot of us. 7 people squeezed in the car, haha.

Went to Tanjung, talked about various stuffs as usual, before Andy fetched Ah Sa and Wai Hong back home, and Esther to Tanjung to join us. It started drizzling a bit soon after, so we left the place..wandered around Taipan and finally went back at 2am plus.
