Initial D was Nice

On Saturday, I went to AMK as usual. Most of the guys felt lazy after the tournament and didn't seem interested in watching any movies in the evening. I had promised to watch Initial D with Amerell, but even I felt lazy. In the end, it was Amerell who managed to persuade a few guys (JokerZ, Fengo, Akira) and we ended up catching the 7+ pm show. While we were in the cinema, we noticed that Steven, Lightbinder and friends were watching the same show time as us.

Anyway, despite reviews I have read, I felt that Initial D was a pretty nice show. The driving scenes were nice and the characters were all great. It sorta ended too quickly for me and left me wanting more. I haven't watched the anime before, but the movie made me feel like downloading the series to watch.

On Sunday, DS lent me Rockman EXE to watch. I actually wasn't really interested in it; I kept hearing it was a Digimon clone or something. But DS told me "there are cute (robot) penguins in it!" and asked me if I wanted to borrow the burnt DVD from him, and I was "alright, thanks, DS".

I also spent most of the day with my other 'DS'. Vincent, Noel and Darius had brought their Nintendo DS to play multiplayer Bomberman with me. Everblue and Uncle Chris joined in for a while and we had 6 human players, but they dropped halfway (Everblue ran out of batteries and Uncle was busy). We spent the whole afternoon trying out all the different game modes and it was a lot of fun. One particular mode required the players to speak into the microphone to detonate the bomb, and I had fun coming up with all sorts of weird things to say ("Cheese Bun!"). While I was playing, Miyamoto arrived and came up to me. He greeted me "Hello, I am here" just as I planted my bomb and it exploded, killing my character. It was hilarious.
