Floodgates

Nope, not tears.
Saliva.
When i stopped. I can't start.
Once i start, i can't seem to stop.
Its all about inertia and momentum right? haha

Friday

Sis and I baked some muffins- Yoghurt and Lemon flavoured. I thought they tasted alright. Just need to be sweeter. But sis found them horrid. Anyway, she threw them out because she reckoned no one would wanna eat them haha.

Saturday

Supposed to watch Harry Potter at 10pm. When we reached the theatre, saw 4 of our friends standing there, telling us that there were no seats left. At first, we thought they were joking, that they were waiting for the rest. How could there be no seats? They went in and saw pple already on our seats and they were holding the tix indicating the same seat numbers.
Apparently, there were duplication of tix during booking.
Wasn't really involved in the whole saga, but thought the management didn't handle the situation very well. And they really need to check the up the dictionary on the word: 'compensation'.

Firstly, ushers went in to call the pple on the seats to come out. They thought we should have the seats because we have already booked the tix a few days ago whilst those pple bought on that day itself. DUH? Do they think we want to evict them? They were already comfortably on their seats and the show has already started... It doesn't make donkey sense to make those pple suffer for the computer system's mistake. They were also victims...
The management kept on saying that they understand and they will compensate us.
Compensation:
"We'll sign these ticket stubs, and you can return any day, any time to watch the movie again"
WHAT?! You're just giving us back what we've paid for in the first place and you have the cheek to call it compensation? Hello?!
What about the dampened spirits? What about E (who would usually be late) was on time for once because she took cab? What about the time that 8 of us wasted in travelling there? And we have to go back again to watch....?!

They then offered to let us watch Harry Potter at later time slots. Initially said there were still seats for 1.15am show. TOO LATE for us. They suggested 12.45am, though only front row seats are left. Erm... 12.45am is ALOT earlier than 1.15am i suppose.
Basically, they are crap at pacifying pple.

Anyway, after haggling from E, who was very fierce (steady man... haha) we finally got something that resembled compensation:
1. Refund for our tickets
2. 2 movie vouchers per person.

Makes more sense, but still feels weird. Coz we were supposed to be watching movie! Luckily my autism is not that severe, else i'll be throwing a fit.

So instead of watching movie, we went KTV. haha!
The package was till 4 am... *snore* And its expensive ... but at least there's the refund from our movie tix to 'subsidise' us haha

And at 12am, they played this game: Zhong Ji Mi Ma (the taiwanese variety gameshow where you'll be kicked out if you guessed that number) Maximum 2 representatives from the various rooms. There were about 10 participants in total.
And D won haha! (so he concluded that he should never buy 4D or Toto. Coz he'll never get the number right haha!) The grand prize for winning- one free jug of drink...
Reached home at 4 plus and slept at 5 plus... zzZzz

To complete my ktv-intensive weekend, went K-lunch with hui & xian. Was fun and we get to listen to nice songs =)
Unfortunately, really too tired to hang out after that... just went home to catch a few winks.

Okie.
That's my weekend.
