Whirlpool in MacRitchie...

Ahoy there, mate!

Pardon me for my piratie terminology, but I've just came back from me premier on the movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, and methinks this is just part of recent-exposure to a film, and this side effect will fade away in due time. SO if I sound like a pirate during this post, please forgive me.

But anyway, the day starts with Canoeing, where we did the ussual sets, but for today we did fortlap. So for today, I had to remove my watch and attach it to the front of my cockpit so I could check the timings more easily instead of having to try to figure out what the digits flying around my left are saying.

Then after trainign, I changed and quickly headed for Orchard Road, where after a short meal at MacDonalds I met up with Uncle Alex to watch the movie with, since I did recieve two free tickets. After Uncle Alex settled a few matters in Lucky Plaza, we both went to the MRT station to take a train towards The Cathay.

My first time there, now renovated and made a little, if not a lot, more modern. And to my surprise, the theatre was all the way up on the 7th floor! That's rather... odd. But nevertheless, a movie's made to be enjoyed, no matter how high up into the atmosphere you're in.

Waiting another half an hour or less, it was soon time for us to get into the theatre. So after finding our seats, having a toilet break and watching a few minutes worth of trailers and advertisements, I had my chance to see PotC III!

Rather undefined in terms of plot, but interesting enough to satisfy a guy who loves colonial sail ships, like me. I shouldn't elaborate on what happens in the show, so as to save my friends who are coming to my birthday party from the satisfaction of their animosity. But thinking back, I end up realising things like;

- Me removing my watch and attaching it onto my cockpit to partially show that I'm doing my sets onboard the Old Tiger is a little bit like Davy Jones removing his heart and placing it into the Dead Man's Chest to permanantly to show that he's serving his duty as transporter of dead souls from this world to the next.

- Capsizing in a K is something like the 'Up is Down' scene, just that the boat's still moving and that there's no crew to rock the boat.

- It'll be very interesting if Mr. See was in his canoe paddling up the lanes using convertable blades, and another coach from an enemy school was paddling down down the lanes also with convertable blades, and suddenly one of the P.U.B. pipes underneath MacRitchie somehow burst, causing a whirlpool in the center of the reserviour. Then Mr. See and the other coach would paddle straight into the whirlpool, dismentle their blades, stand on their canoe seats and fence with each other with the blades in their hands. That'll replicate the 'Whirlpool' scene in the movie rather accurately!

And a few more thoughts.

Well, better get alone to relax my mind over the show. God bless y'all!
