Nice Friday

It's been a while since I went to see a movie at the cinemas. But this one I definately had to go see on the big screen - Iron Man. It's a great movie, and since I knew the story from the comic book that we had when we were little, it made it much more enjoyable. Overall a good movie, and I found Gwyneth Paltrow to be very cute in this movie.

Why did I choose to go see the movie on friday night? Because I was shafted by my friend, who said he'll be free friday night but had to do something, so cancelled. Lucky I was already at macquarie centre with time to kill, since I told my dad I wasn't coming home for dinner. My mum went to brissie for the week just that morning too. So I went to all the big department stores to check if they got Wii Fit. None of the big stores had it. Target, Big W, Kmart... So I went to JB Hifi. Not only had they have a copy available for me, but it was at a cheaper price! $119 - bargain (when Target had it at $124, and Big W at $139. Kmart apparently had it at $119 also, but dunno about stock availibility) RRP is $149, so it's a nice savings. I put it in my car, had a Chicken Katsu Don at Asukaze (I think that's the name). For $9.90 it's a pretty filling meal. Anyways, watched the movie, then went home. Then played the Wii Fit for about 1 hour (with my bro). It's a very good game system, Nintendo really has done it's homework.

I put my MSN comment as "I got WiiFit... yay :P" and I got several guys calling me gay, and asking if I was going to get fit now. Well, I did buy it to play with, it's got several fun games in there, but exercising more than 30mins a day will really burn your muscles. And I don't think I'll turn gay anytime soon...

Today I got the car's engine oil changed, it took about 1.5 hours and cost $80. The price of oil is increasing sharply, and soon I won't be afford the petrol anymore :P And my car insurance is coming up also... *sigh* money is short nowadays...

Will keep on playing the Wii Fit everyday (if I can help it). It's good exercise really, just that we don't have a big enough living room to play in...
