Long Time No See

Yesterday, I met up with a friend whom I have not seen him for a long time. Yes, the one who is famous for "Missing In Action", Sze Yuan. Haha.

This time, he is staying in Singapore for a short while to study Japanese language. Therefore, it is a great opportunity to meet out. We chose to meet out at Orchard since he is staying at Bukit Timah which is close to Orchard. We are deciding to watch a movie since we have no idea what to do. We took quite a long time to decide since Sze Yuan has already watched Madagascar Escape 2 Africa, Song Guan has no interest in watching Cape No. 7, and other movies did not really appealled to us. In the end, we chose a movie that we thought is rather silly, Beverly Hills Chihuahua.

Surprisingly, the movie is not totally about Bimbos, Fashionable Dogs and the extravagant lifestyle in that city. It is a story of a chihuahua, Chloe, which is having an extravagant lifestyle. But Chloe's owner left her with her irresponsible niece who brought her to Mexico. Chloe's adventure started when she decided to sneak out but got kidnapped by a Dog Fight Syndicate. She befriended with a Shepherd Dog, Delgado, and they are in a run to escape the clutches of the Syndicate and finding their way back to Beverly Hills at the same time. There are a few touching scenes too. This is surely a very nice movie for dog lovers.

We realised there are quite a number of "dog movies" nowadays. Movies like: 10 Promises with the Dog, Bolt and The Hotel for Dogs. Is it because there is rise of number of animal abuse acrosss the world?

Before watching a movie, Song Guan and Sze Yuan wanted to have their late lunch so we went to a Hong Kong Cafeteria situated in the Cineleisure. Song Guan loves the place as it has non-stop of Mandarin Pop Songs, and he will only leave the place until it plays the song he dislikes.

After the movie, none of us has the appetite for dinner since they had their late lunch and I got sick because of Popcorn. We then find a nice TCC to sit down and chat non-stop. Our conversation did not stop even we have parted with Sze Yuan. My conversation with Song Guan really went non-stop, and we were forced to stop it until the bus reached his stop. Haha. It was nice catching up with them yesterday. It really brings back a lot of memories.
