Its close to 2am, and I got home not long ago from a nite out with Erica. We met for dinner at Secret Recipe Vivo City, and traumatised the waiter there when he told us there was no more Chocolate Banana cake. We tried persuading him to open a new box (we were sure they had more in the fridge)....didn't work. Then he suggested we try the Choc Indulgence cake, and he'd put banana slices on the side. haha! The things we do.
After dinner, we went to watch "Benjamin Button" at GV. I thought the cinematography was really beautiful and artistic, F. Scott Fitzgerald's themes were thought-provoking.....but my gripe is that the pacing should have been tighter. It got rather draggy after a while.
There was one really entertaining part at the end though, not from the movie itself, but from this super-emo girl seated next to me. Crazy emo girl started BAWLING at the end...and when the movie got to the quiet bits, you could even hear her trying so hard to control her noisy sobs. I don't know if she was genuinely affected or trying to get some attention from her bf. I wish we could have video-ed that moment. You should have seen the major "HUH???" expressions on Erica's face and mine. haha! Seriously, what's up with that?? It wasn't that emotional a scene. Cate Blanchett was so cool throughout.
The movie finally ended at 11.45pm!!! We really didn't expect it to last for nearly 3 hours, and we had to make a MAD RUN for the last train, which was departing in 1 min. haha! But it was a fun nite out with Erica.....a much needed relief from an emotionally and physically heavy week.

you did not know the movie was 3 hrs???? that's one of the reasons i; so hesitant to catch it in the cinemas
Nobody told us!! Not even Berno and Henry Choo who had watched it, and knew we were gonna watch it!
