06.10.23 – I Really Cannot Deal with Crowds.

I hate getting a late start on errands. I have no one else to blame but myself really. I overslept this morning and I got to Costco almost a couple of hours after they opened. And it was crowded. I was not a happy camper. I was getting annoyed since some people cannot navigate their freaking carts properly. You would think it’s foolproof but apparently not. Anyway, really, it was just the crowd that gets to me each time. The lines were too long, there were too many people in each aisle, and moving around with a cart in a crowded place could get really frustrating. On top of that, I was not able to get my rotisserie chicken.

Anyway, aside from that, my Saturday was good. My boyfriend and I were able to watch a couple of movies and an anime episode.

Eclipse (2010). I decided to torture my boyfriend and had him watch the Twilight movies with me. I knew for a fact that he would not like this, but I did back in the day. And um, yeah. This was really painful to watch. And it dragged. As you see, this was the third movie already, because we had the first two last year. I do have mercy and do not let him sit and watch the movies back to back or every week or else this series would’ve been done already. And as no surprise, he did not like this. I was just glad that he at least humored me and said yes to watching the movies. I mean, I could rant and hate on this series but I did like them once upon a time. And I would be doing my younger self a disservice if I did such a thing. There is a reason why refused to reread the books. Because I knew I would say, “Roma, what the fuck were you smoking when you enjoyed this?”

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017). Surprisingly, I had fun with this movie. I was never interested in this movie before since I never watched the original Jumanji. We appreciated the easter eggs from the original movie. I was initially annoyed with that Bethany character. Cause who wouldn’t? But Jack Black did a great job portraying that character when she got sucked into the game. Kevin Hart was given to be funny – I enjoyed his moments that seemed improvised. My hun said that he appreciated this movie more when we watched it together compared to the first time he watched it. I loved the fact that it was a video game setting because it’s very timely, and let’s just say that a board game is a bit outdated. Nick Jonas was a surprise. And yes, I am interested in watching the sequel, Jumanji: The Next Level.

We did watch an episode of High Card. Nothing really happened much. I think the anime was starting to set up the finale for the first season. We were both feeling a bit tired after this one so we decided to stop there. I especially felt really tired as soon as we hung up. So I just really want to relax tonight.
