One night in Sg

I was late yesterday for a movie with some of my buddies from work.
Boss called me in to her office a bit late in the day and was stuck there for a while. Show was to start at 6.40 and I only managed to wait for the office lift at 6.25 pm.
My friends had already walked their way to the theatre by then.

Anyway, after picking up Miss Wong who went downstairs first to get dinner, we made a run for it. Got lucky and found a spot really close to the escalator.

Anyway, thanks to the commercials, we didn't really miss anything.

After the show, my "westerners" buddies and a new westerner friend headed to the carpark, as I usually drop my buddies off at this one MRT station in the west.

At least that was the plan.

Somehow, despite frantically exploring the carpark waving my remote control as if it was some kind of magic wand that will help in the apparition of the car, my beloved car was nowhere to be found.

After about 20 mins or so, I was getting a bit upset. I had to work on a report and a presentation that night and I really could not afford to waste time. I was already taking a huge risk by going out to catch the show, but I really did not want to miss it, especially with such good company. I really needed a bit of fun.

Anyway, it was getting ridiculous as I knew for sure that I was at the right side of the huge mall.
Right at the moment,I saw two police officers appear out of nowhere. Before I knew it, I was already running towards them.

After quietly listening to me spilling my heart out about how ridiculous it was, I noticed there was not any sign of urgency or actually intention to help at all. They were really cool about the whole thing. Too cool even now that I think of it.

At one point, after several Q&As, one of the officers commented:" This is quite a tricky car park, Mam. Maybe you can look around again."
I think I must have shot him a nasty look, coz then the second officer grinned awkwardly and said,"Uhm.... Actually...., we're also trying to locate our vehicle, Mam."

DUH???

THAT'S IT, MAN!!!
I mean...., c'mon.... how do you lose a freakin' police car??????

Combining this and my previous encounter with the local cops, I think now I have right about... oh I don't know... maybe 0.000000000000001% respect left for them?

But on the other hand, though, now I have something to remember that can crack me up when I'm feeling down.

Oh and by the way, I found the car.
No, it didn't apparate out of thin air. And the officers certainly did not help. They actually disappeared after telling me to call them if I still can't find my car. Yea rite... as if that's gonna help.

Anyway, apparently, I was having so much fun talking to my buddies that I went down one floor further than I needed to.

So all in all, despite getting only 1-hr sleep yesterday trying to catch up with work after the outing, it was a good one. At least a very interesting one.... to me.

Oh and the movie, ... It was my very first time catching a local production and I was actually quite impressed. The title is 881 and apparently it's been doing very well in the theatres. And I really lurrrve one of the soundtracks. So much so that I'm wondering whether or not it's worth it to get the CD.
I suspect my aunt may enjoy the songs.
