Friday's Happy-O'lic

First thing first...It's Friday. The first Friday in the series of the coming Summer vacation. 

Took the kids to school. Then..off I went to campus to return a bunch of books I borrowed this semester. Then...off I went to the computer room....only to find that the room was being renovated:( sigh*** then..off I went to the barber (wait it's not barber)...it's a miyongsil or salon....where I usually have my hair trimmed (hair??)..like I have any. ..anyway..only to find that it's still closed. I came too early. 

Couldn't wait coz I got lunch appointment with my office colleagues at Youido's Seven Spring buffet restaurant (my fave).

Still got 30 minutes or so before lunch time...so off I went to IFC Mall to find some morning eye-shopping @ Uniqlo only to find the striped shirt I was falling in love with. 

Then...got one-hour buffet lunch to fill up my senses and appetite of everything a vegetarian like me ever wanted.

the only pic I took of the so many arrays of food I chomped into my tummy.^^

Got a great lunch, though. Thank you for ms. Kim Mino who treated us for the lovely lunch.

** Then...Friday Prayer ** at 13.00 until 14.00 at Itaewon Masjid. (nothing special...apart from the fact that it was crowded as usual...plus the blistering heat of the summer. I couldn't get into the inner circle coz I came late ...

anyhow..I did my Friday prayer hassle-free.

Then..off I went to Jurassic Park.

Yes...It's a last minute decision to transport myself back to 65 million years ago...

where Dinosaurs ruled the earth.

Jurrasic Park on IMAX 3D.

"indeed..it was a new and refreshing way of looking back into the 1993's mind-blowing movie: it's the intricate details and suspense that kept me glued and admire the 90's legacy of movie magic".

and..now..it's 7.45 pm...at home..jotting down this entry.

What a Friday...alhamdulillah. 

Oblivion..Oblivious ...Oblivioso^^

Almost weekend and I deserved to pamper myself as I finally managed to submit all of the assignments on time!!!Yippeeeyy. To even make it even better, I think I did a good job in finally finishing all of the scripts for today's broadcasting @ KBS. So.......it's MOVIE time!!!!

Being a movie freak, I do not know as to why I always have an urge to watch the movie while it's still in its first days of release...^^

After having finished recording, I made sure that there were some slot of time where I could sneak myself into movie experience by soaking myself in the IMAX theater where I could watch Tom Cruise muscled up his action on the screen.^^ 

Not that many people were around since it was around 4 pm where most people were still at the office. I guess students like me were the ones who dotted a place like this at this hour. 

It was a good thing that I managed to have a good seat for this particular viewing of OBLIVION  

Yes...I just watched his latest sci-fi flick 'Oblivion'
I came into the theater without any expectation of what to see. Didn't know what the story was all about prior to entering the theater. So, with no expectation at all, I think I kinda enjoyed the movie.

Had it not been on IMAX, I would not have been so blown away by the spectacle.

Indeed it was a feast to the eyes although...I got to admit that the story was kind of "oh-that-look-familiar-kind of story.^^

I don't know why..but the Tom Cruise-style Wall-E was something that came to my mind.

Of course, ..only to find that......Wall-E has some deeper and touching 'heart'^^

Once again...Yongsan CGV has finally become one of the hangout places where I could spend my time after working. hmm..sounds irresistible. 

A Glimpse of Daejeon Expo Park

no one but me ^.^

Despite the fact that we could not explore the park, I did not feel sad (hehehe...actually I was). To compensate of what I might've experienced, had we been inside the park's theme rides....I deliberately took a walk further up and took two snapshots at the park. I think it was SK Imax Theater. Well, it would've been great,, if we'd had a chance to see inside. But, hey...there will be time to visit Daejon again, then.
As for the moment, taking a picture with the theater being the background would be enough. ^.^
