Lotsa movies, Lotsa partying (in fact, I'm still a little hangover from last night) & Lotsa pictures to share!!! Are you ready? Here it goes!
12th Oct (Friday)
We went to a fellow colleague’s home for BBQ. The Chef for the day was none other than their cute 6 year old – Yun chan! =))
Oops! She caught me snapping away while she was busy barbequing the wings! =p
SOMETHING wasn't feeling well that day, and couldn't really enjoy the yummy chicken wings. Poor thing...~
13th Oct (Saturday)
First it was movie at our usual Cineplex in ABC Ashrafieh. We caught a pretty serious movie this time – The Kingdom. I think I was able to appreciate the movie more than I would have because I’m working in this region. The unnecessary or sometimes make believe beauracy, the desperate attempt to appear like they know it all… all these are things I can really relate to since I started working in the Middle East & North Africa a year ago.
Movie No. 7 - *Check!*
After the movie, we had a quick dinner at Hardee's (aka Carl's Jr) then we headed off to Monot Street (A popular street in Beirut filled with clubs, bars & pubs) cos the boys wanted to catch the live telecast of the Rugby World Cup semi-finals (England vs France).
After scouting around for a suitable pub to catch the game, we finally settled in an Irish pub called The Celtic, along Avenue 109 in Monot Street.

I know hoots about rugby, but the enthusiasm and high spirits of the French & English supporters in the pub plus booze, sure made the evening a lot more interesting.
One of the bartender considered taking sides . . .
... but eventually caved in to the pressure from the French supporters
...but his hunch was right all along, the English won!
Our night didn't stop after the game ended @ ard midnight. We con't partying at yet another pub named Hole In The Wall. Great music + Generous bartender! What's there not to like! >.<

Cheers to the long weekend my friends!
14th Oct (Sunday)
I was hooked on Facebook the entire day. Spent the whole of Sunday afternoon @ Costa Coffee, surfing the web. On that faithful day, I became a NINJA! *hahahaha*
15th Oct (Monday)
I started this day thinking it'll just be a simple movie & dinner outing with my friends. No intention of staying out too late cos the next day is a working day. But boy was I wrong.
Pablo, SOMETHING & I headed off to Holiday Inn @ Verdun to catch a movie. We caught No Reservations, a romantic comedy starring Catherine Zeta-Jones & Aaron Eckhart. What can I say, a movie about good food and romance, what's there not to like! >.<
Movie No. 8 - *Check!*
At 7pm, the 3 of us met up with Bora at Hard Rock Cafe for the All You Can Eat Wings & Beer night! Only 25000LP and you've got yourself endless flow of Heineken beer & chicken wings that comes in 3 yummy flavours (barbeque/ spicy/ extra spicy).

I think Hard Rock Cafe looks the same everywhere in the world
The night started pretty subtle...
until we started drinking, and drinking, and drinking . . . 
then we started to feel really really happy . . .
(I love the pic on the right, with SOMETHING licking the top of Pablo's head *hahaha*)
we drank, danced and partied with anyone we could grab hold of . . .
and became really good friends with the Armenian guys sitting at the table beside us. . .
finally & relectantly, we ended the party a little past midnight... but not before we took a final picture with the really chic pink Harley at the main entrance >.<
Oh! SOMETHING got me a little something from the Rock Shop. It was a Shakira Signature Series Tee. The design was created by Shakira, featuring a vivid pink guitar, bearing a set of angel wings on the base that forms into a glowing pink heart with the neck of the guitar wrapped in flowers. Partial of the sales will be donated to the homeless children in Colombia. (I should ask Pablo to contribute to partial of the purchase since it's going to his country... hahahaha).
