Yesterday I got myself a treat. A chick-flick treat in the form of a rom-com (ie Romantic Comedy) from my better half. I was setting my eye on this movie a few months back since I heard McDreamy would be in it. I thought since its not an action-packed nor animated nor some super-hero flick, I would never get my husband to watch it with me. But lo & behold, out of the blue, he decided that why don't we just have the kids placed in safe hands for a few hours & we just go out for a movie & a good meal- just the 2 of us. Its been a while since we went out on a date - outings many, with kids included. After considering our choices ( I said its just 'formality' lah...) between 'What Happens in Vegas' & some others, I was very glad we decided on this one. It's a really feel-good chick movie that have u worry & stress free while watching it, & eye-candy in the form of Patrick Dempsey didnt hurt either :) Although I must say he does look a wee bit older for a character of 30 odd years.

We have been avid fan of romantic comedy for as long as we can remember & among our favourites were those that starred Hugh Grant & Julia Roberts. I guess its just the charm in the characters portrayed that make u feel good about them & makes u feel good just by watching them.Yesterday we caught the trailer of Hancock, & big fan of Wil Smith that he is, I'm sure it would be one of the movies we will be catching when it opens. But I think Wil Smith seems to always play the 'saviour' that saved the day much to often of late. But his movies are still goos nevertheless. My brother has a copy of 'ayat-ayat cinta' courtesy of his work & we still can't seem to finish watching it over the days. There is always something that would disrupt to make the viewing postponed to a later time. It looks good for the first 15 minutes though.

So our date went well, save for the bad traffic jam that we cant help but encounter when going home at 6. good movie, good meal, best company...more of these please...:)
