Omedetou Joco for winning a Jamaican trip for two and 2,000 pounds!!

For sure Dô can't wait to get invited. Imagine going to the land where Bob Marley is considered a demigod. And cannabis is included in your regular meals haha

And I was already planning to invite myself in and pay for my travel expenses. But here comes the supreme BURN.. Joco is already 18 and he doesn't need a guardian to be with him, so he's inviting his team member from another country to join him. Gone are my chances of 7-day partying and sun-worshipping at the Sunset Beach.. hehe kainis dream on!

noun,
1.To cause to become physiologically or psychologically dependent on a habit-forming substance
2. To occupy (oneself) with or involve (oneself) in something habitually or compulsively
3. Me

For some hours (and days) now, I’ve been busy doing nothing. I don’t read any book; I rarely watch TV, I even cringe on gatherings and social visits. I am not motivated to work or to study. I even fail to visit my blog every day like I used to. I stay at my cubicle for eight hours, getting up just to pee and answer my hny’s calls. I eat my packed lunch there, while staring at the little butterflies flirting outside my window. My brain seems to have gotten tired from twenty-three years of non-stop processing and it suddenly decided to stop. I am slowly degenerating: from Homo Sapiens to Aus. Africanus to a speckle of dust.

I can’t even keep my head upright, it hangs limply at the right.

This ethereal feeling of immense boredom and lightheadedness (aka cerebral malfunction) are results of my current addiction. I am slowly being drawn back into the black hole, which I have painfully struggled to get out from. While I am at it, I cannot talk to anyone (somehow I can manage monosyllables) and I sleep at 4 am. Then I wear shades the morning after to hide raccoon eyes. While I was walking this morning, I can’t feel my knees and my hands are trembling.

Before it was Ragnarok, now it’s Sim City 3000.

I badly need help. Get me the Sims Urban Renewal Kit.


(FYI, this is so Jurassic, gamers are drooling on the Sims 2 now.)

Unfortunately Cinema 10 is still under construction, so we watched at Cinema 6. We queued early to get prime seats, I found out later that we don't have to do that coz there's a lot of vacant seats. That's one good thing when opting for the last full show: less people, you get to snag good seats.



Enjoyed the movie thoroughly, but I know a lot of people that night didn't. The crowd was okay, not snobbish like the Galleria moviegoers. But for goodness' sake they don't have a coffee shop at that level! Coffee addicts have to go down and buy at Starbucks, at the Coffee Bean&Tea Leaf, or farther, at Gloria Jeans. Me, I just want a large Mocha Granita from Coffee Experience. Around the cineplex, a lot of shops offer a variety of snacks to occupy your time while waiting for the next movie. There's Istanbul Express (shawarma), the NYFD (New York Fries and Dips which offers, whatelse? handcut fries), Dimsum n Dumplings ( i so loooove their strawberry milk tea!), a Candy Store, and some other shops which I failed to see coz I'm soo sleepy. The waiting space also has comfortably upholstered sofa which offers superb lounging experience. But you have to be early and fast to get those much coveted seats.

The Lounge with sloths hehe

Movies to Watch: Meet the Fockers, Lemony Snickets' A series of Unfortunate Events (despite the bad reviews), and Elektra maybe

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
