Lunar Chinese New Year

A holiday.  Decided to go to the mall (for surely there will be lots of sale) and watch a movie.

The mall was still close when I was dropped-off but there is dragon and lion dance in front of Hyatt Hotel at Glorietta.  Watched until the mall opens.


Went to Glorietta 4 Cinemas to buy discounted movie tickets for Marrowbone and Black Panther--a movie marathon!

Since still have time for my first movie, ticked-off items in my list--battery-operated candle, Instax wide film, sandals (to replace my favorite Geox sandals that has to retire), etc.  Had Mongolian lunch at Food Choices and dessert of Baskin Robbins before my first movie.



In "Marrowbone", four siblings take refuge in an old home after their mother died.  With their mother, they left to America to hide from their father, who was known as the "Beast"--a serial killer.  The oldest witnessed against their father.  After their mother died, there seems a sinister habitant living in the house.  Mirrors are covered with cloth--a clue to the twists and turns of the story.


In "Black Panther", T'Challa returns to the isolated, technologically advanced Wakanda (which the world thought to be a third-world country) after his father died.  His succession to the throne is under threat, which also puts the fate of Wakanda and the world at risk.  Like!
