Pelham weekend

yesterday, i got off Pelham Bay to visit the City Island. afterward, i watched The Taking of Pelham 123 starring Denzel Washington. this afternoon, i watched the original version of The Taking of Pelham One Two Three starring Walter Matthau.

back from hell

it's been almost 2 weeks since i returned from the middle east. i've been enjoying every moment of my time here. i feel i just got out of prison. although last weekend was nice, i'm surprised that the cold weather still lingers. in any case, it's way better than the heat i had experienced in the middle east. hope i won't be traveling abroad again this season.

time's up

my break is over. i only have a few hours left before i head out to the airport. i've spent most of the day just soaking up the comforts of my home. it's going to be a while before i return to a normal life again. my wish is that my trip will be cut short.

home sweet home

i arrived on april 2 and it's good to be back after being away for more than a month. i almost didn't make it back. after all the ruckus the client had caused, they finally changed their mind and allowed me to return home. sadly i only have a week here in the States before i return to Saudi Arabia for about 2 months. it's going to be a busy week for me running errands and continuing my work. i'm trying to balance my hectic week with some relaxation too.

my Arabian adventures are now on Flickr.

NY Comic Con 2009

one week ago i had the most enjoyable weekend. most of my photos of the NY Comic Con are now available in my Flickr photostream.

well, they're moving the dates again for next year. the good news is that it will be in warmer october. the bad news is that it will be a long wait.

Tankbuster

i never expected to get this achievement. i was playing the finale of Blood Harvest in normal mode. the Tank climbed the facade of the house and got stuck on the 2nd floor, leaving it vulnerable to my continuous shotgun assault. good thing none of the AI characters joined the fight. otherwise i would not have gotten the achievement.

recently i also unlocked the Safety First achievement. i intend to unlock a couple more achievements soon.
