Treants Grow Up, Why Can't We?

I had two events to attend on last Sunday, one of which was the wedding reception for my friend the renowned closet pervert, and the other one was for my cousin is going to go to England to continue her study this month, so we had a farewell party for her. Both were scheduled at the same time so I had to leave early from the reception to catch up with my cousin's. Of course, I left after eating every single food that I can fit in my stomach beforehand. Cheers, buddy.

Also, you look good in that

When I joined up with my cousins, they were having their own lunch at Bakmi GM - it's a noodle restaurant in case some of you foreign readers don't know about it. Quite tasty too, if you can handle the somewhat expensive price (for me, at least). I actually wanted to eat some as well, but decided to hold out since I'm aware of the price.

After the meal, we walked around, wondering what to do next. In the end we decided to watch the Guardians of the Galaxy, even though at least three people - including me - have watched it already. However, since Lucy and The Expendables 3 would be a little bit hard to take for the underage among our group, and TMNT sucks balls because Michael Bay, we don't have much options. I personally don't mind watching Guardians more than once, it's that awesome.

Especially when it has a clone of our president candidate, who's a lot more likeable than the original

And before any of you asks; No, I'm not going to do a review of the Guardians. The only times I would do a review would be to help people who are not sure whether or not they should watch a movie that I watched because the rating was only 'pretty good' or somewhere in the middle, and if the movie was a complete disaster that I can't help but to rant as much as possible to vent out my disappointment of wasting my time watching it. If it's so damn good, then I won't risk spoiling anything by making even a small review.

As for Guardians, the only thing I have to say for you guys is to watch it if you haven't already. That's an order. What? You don't like that kind of movie? What are you, some soulless old geezer who has no idea of how to enjoy anything anymore? So you think you're too good or too old to watch a movie with a talking racoon and tree in it? You damn racist. What's that? You prefer the Age of Ex-stink-tion over the Guardians? I'm sorry, then you're beyond help, I hope we never see or know each other, and please don't breed, ever.

And if you already had, we'll be sure to ask Skynet to send a Terminator to get rid of him/her later

After the movie, we were at a loss of what to do again. Almost went for Timezone for shits and giggles, but then we decided to just hang around the food court for hours, it's more fun that way since we got even more shits and giggles. Especially since the toilet was near enough should we decided to be more literal.

We mostly talk about nostalgic stuffs, joking around, the usual stuffs we do when we get together. Reminiscing about the dumb things that happened in the past, like why in the hell did my cousins wasted time and money to take ice-skating lessons years ago despite having zero intention of going pro. It's like taking a major in electrical engineering but ending up with a job in marketing or entertainment.... Wait a minute, so it's not that weird then.

"I don't even remember any of that shit!"

And in the end the talk was about building up the future. Some of them were about finding proper jobs that pays well, how other people made so much money when they're still young, how school fees gets higher and higher every year, and when to have a child so they'll complete their education before retirement.

Right then, I can't help but wonder how much they've grown up now. And they're even more adult-like than I am. Even now I can't say exactly what I have in mind for my life on the next five years, and those kids have been talking about when is the latest age they want to get married and how much they should be saving up before retirement. I felt the odd bittersweet mixture of proud and sad at the same time.

And it's not just them; when I think about it, the whole day was about people growing up. My friend who got married? Now he has his own family to think about, more responsibilities, and a huge task of being a good father later on. Imagine preparing for when the time comes when your kid goes to school for the first time, or learns about the opposite sex properly for the first time, or gets to see porn for the first time; he's on that road now.

Guardians? The main turning point was [MINOR SPOILER ALERT: Skip to next paragraph if want a 100% enjoyment when watching the movie] when the good guys decided to protect an entire planet instead of running away like criminals they are after getting beaten up so badly by the main villain. Which makes each of them finally come in terms with everyone within their band of complete misfits and working together as a team instead of trying to kill each other.

Best worst team ever

It has been an important message for me to man up some more and try to do what's right. Now that I somehow have and audience here in my blog and my Youtube channel, despite the small number, I believe that there are a number of people willing to actually acknowledge what I'm doing. And I don't plan to let them - you - down, I will keep trying to provide more reading materials for you guys to learn from, laugh at, or simply making you feel relieved that there is someone dumber than you out there.

I got my writing habit, I got the internet connection, I got my precious darling in my head, and I got a brain full of erotica and stupidity. Technically, nothing should be able to stop me from doing it, aside from my personal financial problem and laziness. I'm now even more aware about the time I should be spending to give a shit about life instead of spreading my own shit all over it.
