Seven dollars. It's not really that much. But for a poor ass ex-student with low income living off breads almost everyday, seven dollars is a heavy sum to pay up. So, to be fair(to my wallet too), i live by a fairly loose rule: if you want to spend, make sure it's damn worth it. And no regrets.
It was a Monday, and i had an extra off day. What do i do? I have two choices: either stay at home and listen to 3 kids shouting, crying, playing and fighting outside your door, or go to the mall. Being the bored ass i was, either i get out, or explode in my own room.
So there i was, in the mall. Wanting to catch a movie, i went straight to the cinema. there wasn't much choice; there's only 'Money No Enough 2', 'Babylon AD' and 'Death Race' being shown among other thai horror movie and malay romance film. And Wall-E. I chose to watch 'Money' first, and in i go.
After 2 hrs i came out, not knowing what to do, and where to go. Why not, i say, watch another movie, just to pass time? Now i'm left with 'Death' nd 'Babylon'. From the papers, 'Babylon' didn't get good reviews. And 'Death' does not really appeal to me either. I have a feeling that i would be disappointed in both films, a feeling both won't be the kind of film i reeeaaalllllly enjoy, but what to do? Do i want to spend another seven dollars for a movie i think will be crappy?
My logical side is screaming 'IIDDIIIOOOTTTTT!!!!!!' as i handed the girl behind the ticket counter my cash. i went in for the movie, and i came out feeling a little pissed. The movie is THAT bad. Shit!!!!
There i am...a bit regretful for sitting through the movie...but later i reasoned, hell, it is waaay worth it than enduring kid's screams and shouts and tantrums. Seven dollars of freedom....seven dollars of crap movie...a small price to pay.
i made it sound if the kids are kids from hell. Well, they are, in a way, when they have their tantrums(which, by the way, almost all the time!)...
So yea. what price would you pay to escape these kids? i say seven is just right.
By the way, the crappy movie which i went to is 'Babylon'. The paper was right. Damn. ANd i have no intention to watch 'Death' either.
