...and Appear on the Dark Side of the Moon

The bus was late as usual, so the planned relaxed browse for PS2 games became a more frantic treasure hunt. We ended up with two games, with one that we regret, NBA Ballers and King of Fighters NeoWave. My brother loves basketball, so guess the one that we regret.

City Hunter was fun. Only Paul Tran showed up, probably only because he had some free time, rather than my leet *cough* organising skills. My brother eagerly jumped on the many games on offer, but his friends never showed up. Apparently, they woke up at 2pm, and thus considered 11am way too early for some reason. Now look here, 11am is anything but early. It's almost noon, for heaven's sake! But then again, I'm not out partying or gaming until 3am...

Anyway, on that quick trip to Westfield, I saw a box collection of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex for $119.95. I didn't buy it and when I got home I kinda wished that I did buy it. Hell, I'm not to impulsive. But my mother needed to go to Westfield to refill on makeup or something, so I tagged along and bought the box set for only $70. Apparently, it was reduced.

Shopping isn't something that men do often. We rarely shop, we usually go buy a specific thing. Like I need a new shirt or two, or I really need a fan for the office. But when Westfield, or at least the stores, have thought ahead some. They know that guys rarely shop and when they get dragged along by their mother/wife/girlfriend/female friends, they don't fit in very well sometimes. That's not to say that all guys hat shopping with women. But a sizeable majority do. Thankfully, in major "female" shopping areas of clothes or cosmetics, there are these nice soft, comfy seats, that men can sit and wait, rather than being pulled in a comestics area, the mysterious hostile zone that defies many a man's mind.

Arrgh, that box set is just taunting and tempting me to watch it. Well, the only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.
