What I got:

 

FUCKING AWESOME!

 

Seeing and Samuel L. Jackson portray a character that was based on himself made me chuckle. MUTHAFUCKING NICK FURY AFTER MAH MUTHAFUCKING CREDITS! My cousin and I were the only guys left(aside from the ushers) in the theater after the credits.

God damn it, how am I suppose to hate on Tony now?

Jon Favreau did an excellent job of cutting out everything that bothers me about superhero movies and kept the action scenes extremely badass without sacrificing character development. Everything is kept simple yet effective.

AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Explosions, Bourbon Whiskey, Martinis, a dogfight/chase scene, MORE EXPLOSIONS, SCIENCE(which is way better than MAGIC), cool mecha CGI, product placements and EVEN MORE EXPLOSIONS = Awesome movie.

PS. Jarvis as an AI was very lolwut. Oh well, at least he’s not a SKRULL . Or is he?

This day is the most unproductive yet tiring day I’ve had in the land of Sand and  Shawarma. Well, I’ve only been here for 2 weeks. But still. This day is very lulzy though. We spent around 160dirhams(1920php) on all the taxi rides! WTF!

Somewhere in dubai:

Indian interviwer dude: Are you from China?

Me: (lolwut) No sir, Philippines.

Him: Aah, are you part Chinese?

Me: Yes, my grandfather is Chinese.

Him: I see. Which kind of women do you prefer? Chinese girls of Filipino girls?

Me: (lolwut) Half-breeds are superior. Based on experience.

Him: HAHA! I like your answer. So now that we’re relaxed and comfortable. Let’s proceed to the acutal interview.

Him: Hmm, I don’t see any marketing experience in your CV(resume), all I keep seeing is the word ‘computer’. Please tell me why you’ve chosen to apply to our marketing branch?

Me: Marketing? So THAT’s what I’m applying for!

Him: …

Needless to say, I got canned lol. Oh well.

*Another expensive taxi ride back to the City Centre*

At the Dubai City Centre mall’s food court:

Cute Japanese gurl: すみません。。。something something。。。ですか？

Me: Eh?

Her: Eeeh?

Me: わかりません

Her: @_@ EH? *pouts* (must be surprised that I was able to tell her that I don’t understand her)
Me: Eh? O.o

Turns out that she was asking if I knew where the bathroom is or something. I guided her to the wrong direction. Oops?

Note to self: GET A FUCKING LOCAL SIM! This is the nth missed opportinity!
PS. DEODORANTS, MOTHERFUCKERS! DO YOU USE IT!? No wonder my Arab cousins hate your kind.
