finally, after all that torture of horrible (but free =) ) movies, i finally watched a fairly decent movie: jackie chan's remake of the classic Around the World in 80 days. Although i have to admit that it wasn't my 1st choice, (actually went to the cinema wanting to catch The Day After Tomorrow, but it was already sold out), i'm glad that we ended up watching it cos it was pretty good. wait, i'd say after the last 3 movies its REALLY good. and besides, its been a long time since i saw a comedy that made me really laugh out loud til i started tearing in the eye. i know what u must be thinkin : chinaman jackie chan as Passepartout? hehe, wait til u get to know how he got to be a "frenchman" .. =). well, all i can say is i highly recommend this show (well, at least over the other three).

okay, anyway after the movie i went over to bangsar to have dinner with me family at la bodega to celebrate father's day. food was alright, as usual my sis order the paela (wonder if thats spelt right) - which is actually squid ink rice, hehe.. sounds gross right? well, it isnt half as bad as u think although i dont really enjoy it but she loves it. so .. anyway, i just ordered the tapas and had some bread and of cos: yummy sangria. i guess we limited ourselves to a jug so din get too wasted this time around. hehe. (the last time me n my sis had sangria at la bodega we had like 4 to 5 jugs of sangria and a few beers between the 2 of us.. needless to say we walked out pretty happy campers =) ).

then after dinner we stopped by this DVD shop at bangsar (ahem, i thought selling VCDs & DVDs were illegal? why are there 2 shops selling it right in front of the police station?! nevermind..) well, at least today we werent THAT bad, i actually bought an ORIGINAL DVD ok?! (wait, lemme explain) they were sellin the original LOTR trilogy extended versions plus extra interviews bla bla bla (atotal of 6 DVDs) for just 84 bucks (i think the regular unextended, no frills versions costs rm15 a piece), so why not right? besides, it comes in a damn nice box =). got some other movies like the 1st 2 potter movies (my bro wants to see) and some other shows my sis wanted - killbill i think.

well, thats my day and how i spent father's day. "HAPPY FATHERS DAY, DAD!" (not like he's gonna see this..)
