Awesome! After 5 long years & i mean a very long 5 years, Chris Martin & Co are coming back to town for a gig on the 10th of july. They will drop by sunny old s'pore as part of their Twisted Logic Tour where they will be performing in Hong Kong, Ozzie Land & Japan. I have been contemplating for a week or so since i heard the news that they were coming over, to go or not to go?
I will probably have to do solat istikharah in helping me decide. Tixs are selling at 68 bucks that is the lowest price while the highest is selling at 168 bucks which is explicitly expensive. Anyway after contemplating hard enough, i decided that this is it, i am going & i will go.
Hairi & Amir will most probably be going, maybe i will ask Aiz along. So 68 bucks seems a reasonable price, i did some calculations & what do you know! I could buy myself 37 cup noodles with 68 bucks! Believe it! All in all, i believe Chris & the band plays awfully good music.
Last week was a breeze for me, met up with the guys after classes on saturday. We were going to catch the Da Vinci Code, 1230 AM show at Bugis. I met up with Hairi & Fad at Bedok, waited for them like for 30 minutes & my poor bum was like hurting all the time while sitting at the walkway waiting for those goofballs to arrive.
After they arrived, we headed off to Bugis to meet up with the rest. And as usual, we were the first to arrive, we were supposed to meet up at 6pm & hell, not even one soul was to be seen.
So the waiting game started, we took a seat outside Topshop, Hairi & Fad lighted up their ciggies & started puffing away. I have long quit smoking & i wish they would as well in time to come. We talked smack while waiting, observing people walked by when somebody caught my attention at the corner of my eye.
Man, she was such a doll i tell you now with her short hair & all. I guess she was waiting for someone. I was admiring her from afar i have to admit until she lighted up!
What a turn off. For a girl to smoke, that really turned me off.
She looked adorable & everything until the ciggie came out & she was puffing away like an exhaust pipe. Its just a waste. Well, at least she is smoking ciggies instead of smoking pot. May Allah grant her hidayah to stop smoking. Amin!
Alritey, back to the girl, after she lighted up, she noticed me looking at her. She probably thought i was staring when i was merely observing. So she gave the What On Earth Are You Staring At look at me, so i gave her my I Will Look At Anyone And Anything I Wish To look At in return. Her friend then came & they buzzed off soon after.
After a while, Man arrived followed by Khai & Amir. We then scooted off to Masjid Sultan for Maghrib prayers. We wanted to stay on for Isyak prayers but then most of our tummies were screaming for food at that time so we went off for dinner at SG. Ate our hearts out & i probably could not get from my seat after all that food.
Soon it was 10pm, more than 2 hours to the show, we were thinking if we should go & play a game of pool but we decided against that & ended up going to Mustafa Centre. & the best thing was, we walked all the way there with the notion that we were keeping ourselves fit with all the walking.
Once we reached there, i took a look the watches section & there was this one particular watch that caught my eye. It was nice looking but the price was much more nicer. Its price was 95 bucks, i flipped & i said to myself forget it. Khai was browsing around for a watch as well, but i told him that he was better off buying himself a huge alarm clock knowing how hard it is for him to wake up mornings.
Before we knew it, it was midnight!
We rushed off, made a mad rush for cabs since there was no way we could get back to Bugis by 1230 if we were to walk. Reached Bugis just in the nick of time, thanks to the uncle who drove the cab like some F1 driver who was driving through Sepang.
Anyway, we soon rushed in for the show, cackling in laughter about the mad rush back to Bugis. Everyone else were already sitted tight & there we were like bumbling clowns entering the theatre looking for our seats. The movie was ok for me, having already read the book, i knew what to expect. The only highlight was Audrey Tatou herself who played Sophie, a sight for sore eyes. To cut things short, the show ended nearly 3am, chilled till 330 before we all shared cabs & went home.
The Da Vinci Code is one compelling book to read & so is the movie. It just started me thinking, its utter crap to think that Nabi Isa AS actually had a wife, had children whose bloodline still exists till today. The Jesus we all come to know in Islam adalah seorang nabi, seorang Rasul & he was just a man. He will come down to earth come Judgement Day to help Imam Mahdi fight off Dajjal Lakhnatullah & spread the kalimah La ilaha ilallah Muhammadur rasulullah.
Dan Brown said he wrote the book after much research to tell the truth where the Priory Of Sion which protects the secret of Jesus bloodline does exists while everything else in it has some truth in it. Well, i say Dan Brown was probably on crack when he wrote the book. Or maybe he was hearing voices in his head?
