Overdosed?

You know how it is like when you complained that life is too bored and there is nothing much to do? Well i think i am an expert when it comes to this department. After all, life in Algeria is really simple and really nothing much to do, literally.

One of the Malaysian expatriate has decided to go back to KL for good and he decided to make a final trip here in Algeria. This time around, his wife has decided to come along just to verify that Algeria is really a country that has nothing much. I guess she is not all surprised by the fact that it is really nothing much here.


So for the first day of her arrival, there was nothing much to do except to just saying hello and bye. The next day, together with Miho, the girls and her, we had some chatting time that lasted for more than 4 hours. To be honest, chatting for me is good if it is maximum length is within 2 hours. After that, my mind begins to shut off, my lips dried themselves as a protest of talking, and my body also shut down and i feel death tired! So when the chit chat session ended because she had to get ready for dinner later ( secretly i was happy!), i had to quickly prepared dinner and by the time i have time to settle down for myself, it was near to midnight. I was death tired!!!

Today, it was escalated! The moment i opened my eyes, i was told there will be a luncheon at an Italian restaurant in hotel Hilton. Not a really good start for the day ain't it? So i quickly gulp down my morning coffee and headed to the hotel. The thing with the Europeans are that they really know how to take time to savor their food. Unlike us Chineses who will just swallow food within minutes, the luncheon lasted from 130pm to 330pm! That was really looooooooong!!!!!

Then it was bringing them to groceries shopping, meat and vegetables shopping and before we even headed home, the phone rang! It seems that KC had also invited another group of friends for some gaming session. It was 5pm when the phone rang!

So again quickly, i have to prepare for dinner, chick kut teh, for the couple (hence the previous meat and vegetable shopping) and at the same time have to take care of the gaming group too! It was cook, cook, cook, and entertaining the gaming group for their needs of food and etc......


After that it was time to get dinner ready as well as getting the liquor ready too! And finally, now after a good shower, at 10.30pm, i am able to do a little gaming myself and wind down. This is not over yet though because the gaming group is still outside gaming and i still have to clean up later.......

So i guess i am having a "too-much-happenings" overdose now! Just too much! Oh ya did i mention i have to go for a city tour tomorrow follow by a dinner session too since the couple will be leaving the morning after! This is just way too much!!!!

BUT, well it is only normal that when there are grumbling, there is always a BUT. For my case, although it was a day of overdoses, BUT i am glad that KC is having hell a fun time now gaming. I am just glad that he is having lots of fun and laughters in Algiers! Guess all is worth it eh?
