Friday is like a super long day for me. Well, woke up early and meet up with the other volleyballers at 9am at bishan. Then we headed to RJC. This Weilong, lead us to RI. Haha. Well at RJC guess who i met there !?!?! LEONARD !!!! Pee Sheng, i met your gay partner. Haha. Jkjk, he was my sec school classmate as well. Was very suprised to see him there. He was mugging in school !!! Come on, its holiday dude.
At the RJC indoor court, the guys train by ourselves while the girls play a match with the RJC team. Well, not quite sure about the score though. But anyway for trainning yesterday, it was tiring as we trainned non stop for like 4 hours. Everybody was dead beat but this time round we are getting better at our formations. The formation playing is super tiring, keep having short sprints to run to your own postition.
After that went to have lunch and walk around junction 8 with christ as he want to go buy a new wallet. In the end he bought a final fantasy one from comic connection. Not bad, it was only 19 bucks. After that i rushed home, actually i just hope that i do not see Shelby there. Haha.
Then when i reach home, my brother come up with this crazy idea of watching mid night movie !!! And the worst thing, my parents agreed !!! Oh gosh, in the end went to vivocity to watch "The pursuit of happyness". Its spelt with a Y not an I for your info if you wondering if there is something wrong with it. Well the movie starts at 12.05am but after all the commericals and all it started at 12.30am!!! Oh yeah my brother bought a tin can full of popcorns. Not the normal paper bag one, its a TIN CAN !!!
It was a real life story about how this guy named christ beating all odds with everything against him to achieve happiness. It was a very touching movie about his path of life to bring happiness to his son whom he take cares off. He had no idea who his dad is, so he's going to take care of this son no matter what. His wife left him as he could not bring the bread home after struggling with him for quite a long period of time. He owes people money here and there, got kicked out of his house and even got jailed cause he could not pay parking fines. He even spent 1 night with his son in a toilet at the train station. Thats how far he goes to try to make his son happy even though he is pennyless. In the end he managed to get a job as a broker and that was after a madness struggle of 6 months in which everything was against him. It would break down any man but he stood up and firmly belief in this dream of happiness. In the end he was a rich guy able to support his own family and recently he had his own company.
Guys, if you haven had a movie with your parents for a long long time, this is a good show to watch with your parents. It really nice show. You will get what i mean after you watch it.
