Weekend Wrap-Up

[ Saturday ]

I went to AMK. Wasn't interested in watching the DM tourney because I dislike seeing a game of who can overrun his opponent with more gayish imbalance luck. In DM, skills and strategy get thrown out the window when the moves you make are governed by the power of the broken cards that you draw. While DM is a fun distraction, I don't regard it as a serious card game anymore. And not to mention the quality of good-manners DM players are decreasing; compared to them, Reno looks like an angel.

Anyway, I watched the movie, The Pacifier, with everyone. It was a nice and enjoyable show, but for some strange reason, I was a bit prejudiced once I saw that it had "Walt Disney" in the title. From then on, I knew that there would be no fatal violence (you know, like guy gets bashed in the face by a heavy object and still lives without any injury). Other than that, the comedic elements were pretty good.

At night, Shadow-chan came to surprise us all. (I almost thought he was a legend that only existed on MSN. *gasp*) Oh, well. I didn't do much except to look into his bag of goodies and saw the PS2 games that he brought for Miyamoto.


[ Sunday ]

I woke up in the afternoon. I had nothing to do, so I went to the Pasir Ris Library. This was the first time I've been in a public library in probably a very long time. The reason was because one of the VS players told me that he has been borrowing Marvel comics from the library. The place was pretty nice but I checked the computers and realized that this particular branch didn't have any comics. What a boring place. At least they have a cool little cafe.

I dropped by at Orchard after that to pick up another issue of Tuxedo Gin. I also checked to see if they had the newly-released Shining Force Neo manga. I was told it'd arrive probably a couple of weeks later.

I arrived at AMK in the evening. Drafted more than 3 times with KelvinSoh & friends since I kept getting crap and thought that my luck with rares will change. I got all crap in all 3 drafts, whereas KelvinSoh & friends kept cracking open power rares like The Source. Our draft lasted late until after the store closed so I had to take a cab home. I don't think I'll ever dare to draft again.
