Craving Things That Move
Like maybe some visuals. I thought those two Ran eps would be done when I got back but it’s still stuck with 95% and 96% each. Sighs. I’ll watch Hana Yori Dango in a bit, because as you might have guessed, I just woke up. I didn’t get enough sleep last night so resisting nature is just futile. Like I said, I’ll go to bed at 10 pm and still call it nap if I have to. Especially if I woke up really late in the day. I am craving moving things because drawing and reading manga or writing don’t make things move without initiative on your part.
Aaaanyway, it’s always during one of my most fitful slumbers that people always choose to strategically call me up. Unfortunately, calls I must always pick up. (If not then the battle theme ring tone will still annoy me to death. Not sure why I am still using that ring tone from Suikoden 2).
This time it’s my sis (you must be happy reading about yourself aren’t you?). Daddyo gave the OK to go watch Disney on Ice in April, here in KL. I think between 7-12 April is already study week, if not the end of the sem. Final exams will only start in May. I can always rely on the exam dates to be postponed instead of brought forward here. Right, so anyway, sis wants me to go to KL and check at the Info Counter at LOT 10 about the tickets. Consider this, everyone, I’m in Puchong and she wants me to go all the way to KL just to ask about one little thing and then? Go back?
…
True, my mom cannot be relied on in this situation.
And considering this is a very hectic weekend for me and next week too probably.
O’ kak long: I’ll see if I can get hold of LOT 10’s number and get them to direct me to the information counter alright? Besides, you’ve been pestering me about my underused call hours haven’t you?
The miracle of the phone.
If it wasn’t for my dad I wouldn’t even know the number of Telekom’s directory (or if it even existed!). I used to think that my dad was treating us like his employees. He’d go "what time is this movie?" and I’d go "I’m not sure. I haven’t checked the papers." and he’d reply "Go and call them and ask for the showing times." then I’d be "Huh!?" Calling up strangers just like that?! But of course daddyo wouldn’t have it. You’re just calling to ask. Besides, you’re a potential customer aren’t you?
And if I had refused and backed down I’ll probably get scolded for being unreliable. I’d hate that.
Just press 103 and you’ll be directed straight to the directory. You can find almost any number from there. Now, having this knowledge, it pisses me off when people are not so reliable. Especially when something as simple as movie showing times are concerned.
Everyone, if you are asking me out for a movie but am not sure about showing times, you’d better have a good reason for that. Because, most of the time, that can be solved with just one phone call which most people are too clueless to make.
Or if you are too shy, come to me. I have the numbers of all the relevant cinemas.
Now there’s no reason for you to say ‘I don’t know’ anymore. It’s pathetic.
I’ll be off now. Ta’ra!
