I went out today and this is the list of things and events which I saw, as described below. I have written about this event to keep notes for writing poetry and other types of posts.
- The sun was out but it wasn’t very hot.
- A pinkish-red hue of sports car drove by my street.
- The driver stopped right before every hump on the street, and drove over the humps very slowly. He didn’t wish to damage their sports car’s low under-carriage.
- My hired ride arrived.
- We had a short ride through crowded but smooth flowing traffic.
- We reached our destination.
- There was a queue of two cars at the tower’s drop off point.
- The car in front had a passenger opening their car boot to take out something.
- That car eventually drives off.
- We disembark from our hired car.
- There are people around around the entrance of this tower.
- We see people as we walk among them to get to the mall behind this tower.
- I see a man taking photos of a couple. He gives instructions on how to pose.
- This photographer switches places with the man of the couple. It is his turn to pose for a photograph.
- We walk past many people in the open air space between the previous office tower and the mall we are walking to.
- We have reached our mall.
- We walk towards the escalators and ride them to the 5th level. Our destination is way up.
- There are always people riding the escalators. There are riders in front of us, and riders behind us.
- We see fleetingly, window displays of shops.
- We reached our desired venue.
- There are no other customers around.
- I look at the time displayed on my cell phone.
- We are just in time, which means the trailers have started and the patrons have entered the theater hall.
- We walk to a ticket machine to print our pre-booked tickets.
- The machine printed discount vouchers to buy food. That was the incentive for patrons to buy tickets from this particular theater chain. I wrote about poor and almost no food available at another theater here.
- We saw nobody in the queue to buy food. That’s because the eraly birds have gone into the theater.
- The food seller at the cash register warns us we have to wait 5 to 7 minutes for chicken nuggets because that’s the cooking time.
- We nod agreeably. No problem to wait.
- We walk a few steps to the food collection area.
- A female staff carries a portable vacuum cleaner and walks towards our position.
- The woman uses the vacuum to suck up fallen popcorn.
- She says “Sorry” for vacuuming around our feet.
- The cleaning lady provided something to watch while we are standing to wait to collect our ordered food.
- The food seller comes out of their kitchen carrying two boxes of chicken nuggets.
- “Please wait two minutes for your wedges,” she says.
- Two minutes are gone like time flies. The seller walks to our waiting counter, carrying a box of potato wedges.
- My companion says, “There is still a bottle of tea which I bought in my order.”
- The seller walks away, to the chiller.
- She fetches a bottle.
- She walks back to us to hand over the bottle.
- I ask for a bag to put my paper box of popcorn into because I didn’t want any to spill.
- We show our tickets to the ticket inspector at the entrance of the hall way.
- She holds her scanner to scan in the codes on our tickets.
- She says, “Enjoy your movie.”
- We walk to our theater hall.
- It is dark in this theater, as the trailers have started being screened.
- We find our seats as this is a very small theater.
- We sit down, clean our hands with sanitizer.
- We are ready to eat our food.
- A funny trailer is playing.
- It is a spin-off from the old Star Wars movies.
- Another trailer featuring a supergirl plays.
- The start of our movie flashes on the screen.
- “The Devil Wears Prada 2” (I wrote a short review of the experience at the link)
- We eat and enjoy our chicken nuggets, potato wedges and popcorn.
- The plot affirms what we already know about the publishing industry, journalism, and fashion industry.
- The movie is over.
- We pick up our empty food boxes and paper bag.
- We get up from our seats and walk to the exit.
- We take some second to remember which direction. is the way out.
THIS LIST WILL BE CONTINUED SOON.
