20 MAY 2006 - “API-API”

Went to watch “Over The Hedge” with Lorraine and Fara. Fara decided to bring her friends Reza and Atie along. In case you’re knocking your medulla oblongata at this very moment just tryin’ so goddamn hard in figuring out who the heck this Fara is, she’s actually a friend of mine from the Malaysian Institute Of Multimedia (formerly known as Akademi TV3) glorious past.

And by the way, she’s staying near my place so I’m always lookin’ forward for her company if I’m doing any cinema watching activity. Her “YES” or “NO” answers will totally be depending on her “crazily tight life schedule”. So, if she’s not around and I can’t find any other friends to bug, I’ll just go by myself. Yup, I do feel like Beyonce sometimes, it’s just “Me, Myself and I”…..

“Over The Hedge” was a good show. Seeing Hammy with his super speed ability and wacko personality was just truly entertaining. I sent Lorraine back to her place after the show. I did invite her for a late nite dinner, but she declined, saying that she needs to go back and make a full status report call to her parents at Philippine. Hoping that she won’t be such an annoying pesky roach to my obviously ruined “dining plan” with Lorraine, Fara made that wise move of taking her ride home with Reza and Atie. Thanks Fara. Really do appreciate it. You’re such an understanding lady. But truly sorry sis, my genius plan miserably failed. After making sure that Lorraine safely reach her hotel, I decided to give Hairul Emran a call since he told me that he’s gonna be back to Kuala Lumpur last week.

Made my way to his place in about 20 minutes and saw that he was bringing the whole cavalry with him along. There’s Mizi and also his brother, Hairul Erwan. “This is gonna be fun,” I quietly said. We make our way to Api-Api, which is a cozy dining out place that’s situated at Ampang. Fendi would be really furious if he ever found out that I’m referring to that place as Api-Api. “Can’t you read the signboard, idiot? This place is called Tanjung, it’s not Api-Api!” he claimed. “Why do you call it Api-Api in the first place?” you wonder. Ask Fendi…..
