Of Takeouts and Plays

I'm not really a moviegoer, don't get me wrong, I lurve watching flicks, but I like watching it in the comfort of my room, I don't wanna go to the silverscreens just to watch some. Boy! I'm too lazy and stingy for that kind of leisure, plus, I don't feel comfortable in the cinema house. At least in my room I can do whatever I feel like doing while watching, I can do anything without any inhibitions or reservations, I can scream, cry, laugh my heart out, and sometimes make a long and sounding fart (hahahah!)...

So much for the intro. Yesterday, me and my newfound berks went to AMC 20 to watch Hide and Seek, starring Robert de Niro and Dakota Fanning. I'm a big fan of Robert de Niro, I had a crush on him when I saw his flick, forgot the title, wherein he had a mohawk (kewlness!). I was so excited because it was my first time to watch a movie in a moviehouse here in the US and it's been a year and n months since I watched something outside my room, but my excitement just went to the drainage along with the heavy rainfall in the middle of my viewing, the film's not good. $10 wasted on a bad movie, the trailer's so good you'd want to see the movie only to be disappointed when you get there, giyaah! Though it was free because the birthday gurl paid for it, nakakapanghinayang pa rin! That $10 can buy me my Sandra Brown paperback novel...

Talking about paperback novels, I accidentally brought home a book from the book/music store-cum-cafe I usually hang out in. The detector didn't make any noise when I went out, I just realized it was in my bag when I got home. Now, I don't know how to bring it back to the shelves of the said store. In fairness, I liked the story in that paperback, The Chinese Take-Out, written by Arthur Nersesian. A fiction about a struggling artist and how he faced and lived his messed up life. It's not a national bestseller unlike The Da Vinci Code or The Rule OF Four, not a Pulitzer or Nobel nominee like The Hours or The Dante Club, but it's a good read... Makes you realize how filthy the world can be..and how fucked up can you get in your life's journey.
