Where I live, it's no surprise that it rains every so often, especially during this time of year. And being in college, it's a rare occasion before our classes are suspended by the higher-ups based on the weather. But of course, that's not the point of this blog, now is it?
That day was the day Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was premiered here in the Philippines. And being the Potterhead that I am, I wanted so much to watch it on opening night as I have since the third movie. So, the day before, I had asked whoever wanted to watch to watch with me. In the end, I only had one companion among my block who was free and able to go. Not that I minded.
So, Kim - my blockmate - and I headed off a bit after our Theology class under the rain to commute to the LRT station and to Gateway. It was quite interesting to note how much of a difference a few hours made in terms of the availability of watching a movie. Then again, given that it was a weekday and most everybody was either at school or at work, the cinema wouldn't be as packed as the usual times when classes were dismissed or whatnot.
We purchased 12:55pm tickets and, seeing that it was still a bit more than an hour early, we headed down to the foodcourt to help ourselves to some lunch. I ended up purchasing at Burger King, while she bought lunch at Pizza Hut. After that, we ended up chatting about Junjou Romantica to eat the time away before deciding to go around and look at some shops.
Kim was looking for a bag/sleeve for her laptop, so I had nothing against going with her to look for one. When that was done, we both headed upstairs to the cinema level and after a while, headed into Cinema 6 to watch the 2 1/2 hour movie.
I won't delve too much into the details of the movie as of the moment to save myself the trouble of getting yelled at for giving spoilers to those who desire to watch the movie but have not yet have the privilege to do so. ^_______^v
When the movie was finally done, I decided to entice myself with a DQ Blizzard despite the cold weather before Kim and I finally parted ways as I returned to school, only to find out that the club meeting was cancelled due to lack of attendance and the weather.

But you know... there were some moments while in the movie house where I had to keep reminding myself that I wasn't watching the movie with my girlfriend. Maybe next time I won't watch a movie with just one other person to save me the trouble of having that train of thought. ^___^;; Goes to show you how much I wished it was my girlfriend I was watching the movie with.
