Had an interesting day today.
Met up with Iva and Robert to go see King Kong. It's been a while since i saw such a stupid movie. I know that the story itself isn't really designed for plausibility but that doesn't explain the glaring logical inconsistencies, like how the savages are such great engineers, why a T Rex would chase a woman (who wouldn't even be big enough to provide more than a mouthful or so at best) while it still had an entire other dinosaur in its mouth, how it is that Kong himself has such uber martial arts skills, enough to take on 3 T Rex at once (and that's without getting into ytf do the Rex concentrate on bringing down Kong when there's so many better targets ie ones that don't fight back so much, and without attacking eachother), why the Empire State is the only surface which doesn't immediately start crumbling the moment Kong starts climbing it.. only the final 20 minutes or so of the movie didn't invite mockery.
Afterwards, we headed to Kinokuniya and inevitably ended up in the drawing/anime section.. there was this really cool book about anatomy in comics.. had lots of cool photos and piccies and so forth. Then Robert had to leave and Iva and i had fun checking out the manga section, we then went cheap clothes shopping but didn't find anything worth buying.
Today was also a day for bumping into lots of people we knew. We bumped into someone Robert knew from UTS in Town Hall station, we bumped into AJ and a friend of his just outside Kong, we bumped into a couple of Iva's friends just outside Kino, in Kino someone Iva and i recognised (and didn't want to bump into) came in.. we promptly snuck out the back way :p and finally when i got back to Bondi Junction i bumped into Peter from archery. Altogether quite an eventful day.
Random: on the way home i was listening to the song "Wisemen" by James Blunt, the chorus cracks me up, the first line of it goes "look who's alone now, its not me, its not me". Talk about rubbing it in :p
