movies - peanuts, star wars + christmas market

and so i was on PM leave on both wed and fri last week. 
i kept wed afternoon to myself and fri for the boys so we have a good me-kids balance! :D

wed i went for some shopping in town but there's really nothing much that caught my fancy. in fact, i almost left town empty handed until i saw a nice ring from threadbare and squirrel at wheelock place. :P it's good when your shopping comes in mini sizes that the husband has a hard time noticing.. ha!

after that, i went to fetch the kids and hubbi and we headed to the christmas market @ garden by the bay!
given its a wed evening and we reached around 6+, the crowd was OK and we had fun playing carnival games (basically, just money down the drain. :"(...), took some rides and exploring the pretty set-up there. 
great evening - a departure from our usual routine.

 the swinging chairs were good fun for the boys!

pretty decor


fri, i bought the boys out for a spot of movie time at bugis+! we watched peanuts and it's just......underwhelming....
it's not bad but its not fantastic too. it just left a strange taste in my mouth and got me thinking "ok, it's not so bad that i feel like i've wasted money but why do i feel i could have spend my time elsewhere??".
so...

peanuts!

and yesterday, we watched star wars - the force awakens!! never a star wars fan myself (LOTR LOTR LOTR!!), i watched it more out of obligation to accompany the husband and of cos to see for myself if the show lives up to its hype.
and of cos it...doesn't. i didnt want to do any spoilers here but casting got to be better than this. i mean kylo-ren?! seriously.
and the plot is at best unoriginal, at worst recycled. you go watch and be the judge.
