Had another looong day today (gosh it’s been a tiring weekend - sometimes I think I need a weekend to recover from the weekend!)
Started the day off with Palm Sunday Holy Mass. Was feeling terribly weak & would have ideally slept late (praise God I didn’t go out last night) but seeing as I play keyboards for the choir, got up & going. As such, sat down most of the Mass - esp. during the gospel which was the Passion reading.. even as I sat there my mind couldn’t help but picture Mel Gibson’s Passion of the Christ, scene by scene, as it was being read out. Must watch it again before Good Friday.
After Mass felt a little better. Had plans with parents but was called out by some friends (with pleas of “please please come”) so ended up having a silly brunch at the Carter Rd Cafe Coffee Day. Note: Def. do NOT have the veg. pizza - big time terrible.
After that we had originally planned on having lunch but since we had anyway just eaten, decided to go for a movie instead. 4 of us went to Fun Republic & finally got to see “Meet the Fockers”
Before I review the movie, would like to say a word about Fun Republic. Though I’ve been there twice before, never really went in as there weren’t any movies playing that I wanted to see. Got to have a good look around this time though as we were about a half hour early for the 3.15pm show.
Since one of us
insisted on playing a silly little jigsaw puzzle game (part of a shampoo promo) & couldn’t play to save her soul - I stepped in & won her a “free shampoo-ing”… yes - not a free Shampoo but a Shampoo-ing. Yeah right. Like ANYONE in their right mind would want their hair shampooed by some weirdo promo strangers just before going to see a movie in an AC-ed theatre.
Unfortunately though, my friends are NOT in their right minds & were insisting that I go get it as I was the one who solved the puzzle.
Mercifully I was able to convince them I would do it after the movie (yeah RIGHT…). We also managed to have the time to browse the book cum CD store & I bought the “Bombay Rockers” CD for one of the guys who really wanted it. Along with the rest of Bbay’s party crowd, I really love the “Teri Toh” song (which is actually called “Rock Tha Party”) - it’s really hard to get out of your head… After the movie blasted it in the car all the way home.
Teri To, Teri Ta, Hamesha Yaad Satave
I dont know what you’re saying but all I know is that I came to party!

The movie itself was good fun (review following this post).
We ran home afterwards though - no time for that shampoo - “Oh, how sad guys” (tee hee)… as the other three all hadn’t gone for Mass. Made it just about in time but not before making dinner plans.
Was so zonked though that I cancelled last minute. Think I’ll just make it an early night - have a meeting tomm morning & a long week ahead. All in all, a GREAT weekend.
