BWC2014 - 28th May (Day 14 - Melissa vs Godzilla!!)

so so lunch...


I slept for more than 9 hours today!!  Quickly dragged myself up around 9 plus.  Since I would still have plenty of time here, my National Park trip was postponed again.  I took my own sweet time and left house around noon time.  It was shopping time!  I decided to get back to Taguatinga shopping mall to get the two pairs of Melissa and hopefully a third one for another friend.

I reached the mall with ease.  But, first of all, it’s the most important times of the day.  Meal time!  Nowadays, lunch and dinner have been the highlight of my boring and quiet days.  If I don’t start to do something, I would be having empty posts on my blog soon!  Although Divino Fogao was nice here, I wanted to try something different.  Picked one but it was nothing fancy to shout about.  Nevertheless, I always take the pleasure in enjoying a meal very much, as long as it’s not horribly difficult to put into the mouth. 

1g salt which I don't feel
a drop at all!
After meal, I walked to the Melissa shop trying to look for Larissa who attended to me yesterday.  Unfortunately, it looked like she was not on duty.  I felt a little sorry for her because I got the shoes from Christina instead.  Since they don’t have the size of the other pair, I took the subway to Park Shopping and bought the remaining one in my shopping list…..so far!

Finally, it was time for myself to savour a cup of nice coffee!  Felt so much like catching a show today as well!!  Before that, I have checked out the screening time for Godzilla which were differentiated not only by 3D but “subtitled” or “dubbed” as well, and 6pm looked like the only earliest option, since I just missed the 3:30pm show.  I spent the rest of the time enjoying my coffee and the free WIFI provided at the shopping mall.  

an almost empty cinema...
small cinema to watch big Godzilla!
When it was close to 6, I walked to the cinema and bought my ticket for R$19, as expensive as Singapore! Just in case I would get any surprises, I even confirmed with the ticket counter if it was in English.  There was no movie ticket given but just a receipt.  I went into the cinema hall, which was pretty small!  I guessed perhaps Godzilla wasn’t the latest show on screen then and hence the lower demand.  Actually, the movie was like a cartoon to me, minus the animation.  Don’t get me wrong.  I love cartoons as well as animation movies very much.  Perhaps, I was looking forward to a more exciting and unexpected twist like some of my friends revealed earlier to me.  It seems like the “twist” that they referred to was actually part of the plot! I felt bad for concentrating more on Elizabeth Olsen instead of the main cast, Godzilla!

Exactly 22 shrimps in the
noodle!
I was a little regret after catching the show, not because of Elizabeth Olsen’s screenplay was too short, but because of watching it too late.  It was already 8:15pm when the show ended.  I quickly rushed to the food court for my dinner.  Tried the shrimp spaghetti which was pretty good!  Although the shrimps were not in the best condition, but I had exactly 22 of them on my plate of spaghetti!  Couldn’t complain at all.

After dinner, I dashed out to catch the bus home.  Tried many buses but none of them turned left to the EPTG highway.  Finally, one of the bus drivers suggested to let me down on the other highway, so that it would be easier for me to get buses that goes to EPTG from there.  Actually, I didn’t understand him at all in the first place, but just followed.  

As soon as I alighted, I saw a bus that wrote “EPTG” and ran over to catch it immediately.  While on the bus, I wondered what if any of the “EPTG” buses actually turns into some of the residential area along the way before it reaches my place!  Truly enough, I was so “lucky” to hop onto one today!  I had to alight and took a long long walk out to the next bus stop on the main road again.  When the next bus came, I made sure there was no “second time lucky”.  Knowing I was a foreigner, the bus driver was really nice to tell the conductor to inform me where I should get down at Vicente Pires.  I told him I am alright and thanked him when I alighted.

At 10:10pm, I reached home the latest today.  Swiftly cleaned up myself, I went straight to bed as soon as I could!
