all saints day that was.
Monday, November 2nd, 2009finally went out. i needed bottled water and some munchies so off to target. i prefer target over walmart for the reason that former has less patrons and spacious stores. although walmart is way cheaper. in the store i grabbed these.
i can’t resist. i have this thing with action figures and construction. it’s a character in a game and i’m thinking of buying the whole thing. of course i got my essentials, meaning 4 cartons of tropicana juice. i am so in love with tropicana! the only juice i drink here. was thinking between dr. pepper and tropicana and remembered my trainor, the juice then. off to pick some more items. but i had to, i have to get the dove dark chocolate promises. it’s like fortune cookie in smooth, silky chocolate form! grabbed dinner at a mexican place, a burito plate and went straight home.
immediately, i put together my new toys. it took me 3 minutes to piece the first one. i’m not big on following instructions but i have to. too many pieces to put together. skrall looked like this.
angry, mean with a long sword. no pun intended. mata nui is more complex to put together. he’s like the the warrior in yellow. if you ask me, he’s a little gay. hehehe. no straight man, warrior or not, can pull that shade of yellow if you ask me. 
after all of that “construction”, i unpacked my grocery bag. now my kitchen pantry looks like this. i bought 2 packs of energy bar. since most of the food here is high calorie, i figured to stuff protein bars.
i love this game! i play this with my officemates during breaks at the pantry since the kill-joy people at the office always hush us during game time. but we couldn’t help it when we shout and groan after successfully bombing each other. same typical bomberman however the ds version is capable of hosting up to 8 simultaneous players connected either local wireless connection or over the internet. neat huh? even neater is the fact that it has a download play (geek alert!) capability. simply means that only 1 ds needs the bomberman game, all other ds-s can sorta-kinda temporarily download a copy of the game from the host ds. we’re planning to host a bomberman tournament with other floors of the building. hehehe.
mario kart is another favorite game. this is not your ordinary racing game. still the objective is to get ahead of the pack to the finish line but this one has surprises along the way. you get to open a box with random items, could be a star, a shell, mushroom, a banana peel or even a fake box. you get to use it at any time you think you’ll need it the most. you may knock your opponents out of the track by bumping them on the sides or using your items to course them off track. like for example, a red shell is a homing shell you can use to throw to your opponent. the banana peel is something you can leave behind for others behind you to slip on. it will build your strategy as well on when and how to use each item you find. there’s an on-going war between the 11th flr people (SAP guys) and us 18th flr (web guys). need to polish those power slide so i can kick some serious SAP butts!
