Chapter 45: Valentine's Day??

Thursday, 14th of February, the date known by lot of people especially couples as the Valentine's Day. Well, as usual, for me, it is just another day since I'm still single. YW was back in Penang that time and we went out to Queensbay Mall for movie. I reached GSC around 2 and wait for her. Luckily she ain't late and arrive a few minutes later. Otherwise we'll have to queue for a long line. The cinema was kinda crowded though it was weekday only. The queue was much longer than usual weekdays. Although the seats we got ain't at the centre but it was good enough as we didn't need to sit at the front rows. Not surprising that most of the patrons were couples. We watched Jumper since both of us have watched the other movies.
Jumper is another movie from the director of Bourne Identity and Mr.&Mrs. Smith. For that reason, I was expecting a action-filled movie. As what I've expected, the movie is full of non-stop action. And I really like the moves where 'Paladins' and the 'Jumpers' fight. The effect of 'Jumping' around is cool enough and the special effect group sure paid lots of effort for that. I suppose Hayden Christensen who cast as David Rice is handsome enough to attract all the attention of the ladies in the cinema. He acted as Anakin Skywalker in the Starwars episode 2 and 3. Other than that, I hope the movie can be a 2 hours film rather than 1 and a half hour.Overall, the movie can be better if the storyline and the editing of scenes can be smoother. Therefore, I can't say that this is a better movie than Bourne Identity and Mr.&Mrs. Smith.

After movie, we walked around the mall looking for a place to dine-in but end up at La Boheme. I bought myself a bread and we just sat on the bench and chat. Later, we decided to go to Starbucks but too bad there ain't any cozy cushioned seats left. Therefore, we went to Coffee Bean. I bought a German Cheesecake while YW bought herself an ice-blended. The cheesecake is nothing special and I think that the Blueberry Cheesecake tastes better.

We left there around 6.30p.m. YW went back to her house while I went to chat with ST for a while before went back to house. Looks like this year's 14th of February wasn't much different from last few years. However, its NICE enough to have a movie with YW. At least this day wouldn't be so bored.
