go and catch a movie NOW! it only costs $7 😆

📢 CALLING ALL MY FELLOW STUDENTS! do you ever have those very long and weird breaks in between your classes? because i do and while i sometimes enjoy that free time since i get to be productive before the next class, it gets pretty draining you know🤧 well, my friend and i decided to make use of it this week and we decide to travel all the way to orchard to watch a movie! why did we do it? is it worth the cost? stick around to find that out 👀

if you haven't been living under a rock, many cinemas in singapore do offer various promotions such as the student concession, where you get to enjoy movies at a special rate as long as you present your student pass for verification! 🤩

for this particular day, my friend and i visited shaw theatres lido and we went to catch a movie called "mrs harris goes to paris" 🗼

• both of us ONLY PAID $7 each for the movie tickets (though the tickets can only be purchased through walk-in)

• we also purchased a popcorn & nacho cheese combo set separately, which costs less than $10 each 🍿

while you might say going to a cinema to watch isn't worth it thanks to the convenience of streaming platforms like netflix & disney+, here are some reasons why we decided to go with this during our long break

1️⃣ the never ending assignments and tests we had was putting a toll on us and we wanted to take this opportunity to relax and take a breather! especially since the class we had afterwards was purely lessons, with no tests at all, we felt this was a good time to do so!

2️⃣ we discovered a movie that piqued our interest and that was mrs harris goes to paris! though we only found out about this movie while browsing through the cinema website, we were intrigued by its trailer and wanted to know more about it! it's safe to say that we thoroughly enjoyed the movie, which made us fantasize how wonderful life would be living in such a romantic city🥹

3️⃣ of course, the price is a factor! i mean how can you not when a regular movie ticket costs about $14 these days and it does explain why we would rather go to our devices and watch movies online instead of making the effort to watch it in cinemas. wanting to make full use of our student concession, we thought it was worth a shot since all we wanted to do was to relax and not think about the amount of workload we had till the end of the semester! 🫡

with that, i hope this movitates you to catch a movie in cinemas IF you find a movie that piques your interest! while i'm not sure if there are any promotions for other age groups apart from students, i definitely urge yall if you still have your student concession to make full use of this promotion and watch a movie at an affordable price! 😉
