It's Official, I Am Lazy

Of course the whole world knows about it. Basically I am just lazy, in behaviour and thoughts, or rather, the lazy thinkings has translated to subconscious lazy behaviours. The reason for that it's official is not really because I haven't been going for drum practices diligently on Sundays, nor that I am not inviting my friends over because the home sweet home is essentially a pig sty in the eyes of others.

So yesterday I went out drinking with my friend and were chatting stuff until she brought up the topic of astrology. She's basically super into astrology and even tho
ught of becoming an astrologer before. I must say she is really into it to even think of making it a profession. But anyway, that's beside the point. So she started stating that Capricorn has this determination in their eyes and show it out in general that they are determined and a hard nut to crack. I don't really think that applies to me, I am a soft marshmallow that goes with the flow a lot of times and always more than ready to give up on something. Then she continued saying that they are hard on themselves and people around them, especially people they loved. Well, I'll leave this for others to judge, but personally I do try to push myself sometimes. But then who doesn't? Is it not only right that you should consider push yourself to do something that you don't like? It doesn't only apply to Capricorns.

The last statement she said that usually Capricorns are rather lazy people, but because they push themselves hard, they do not allow themselves to become too lazy. This is really something new I've heard on astrological analysis on Capricorns. So, I
proudly announce that from now on, nobody should scold me for being lazy. Why? Because it's in the sign! wahahahahaha....

5 Napkin Burger

It's delicious. Probably one of the best burger I've had in NY so far. Then again, I probably haven't been eating as much burger as one expects. So one fine Saturday, my friend decided to go try the place that she has listed in her to-go restaurant list according to her NY magazine guide to nice restaurants.

To begin with, the price was above average for dinning. On the condition that I had spent an indecent amount of money for dinner out the night before, this brunch made me (and my wallet) felt sadder. Setting that aside, I was willing to explore whatever my friend is interested in. So, we waited for a table, with the server ignoring us to pick a call and being a total bitch giving out the air of 'yes, we can afford to not do your business'. Then, the waiter who served us wasn't friendly either. In fact, most of the servers in that restaurant looks like they have lost ten thousand dollars in poker the last night.

So my friend was bitching about it and saying that she will never come back because of the lousy service. When the food was up, we couldn't believe the obscene amount of meat for the burger, fries as side, and, not a single piece of green can be found in this whole meal. All protein, tons of carb, and no green. How is this possible? Should you not at least have lettuce or even some pickle zucchini?

Anyway, the usual American portion was served and I could only eat 80% of everything, and leaving almost the fries untouched. Although I have given very negative feedback on the service and the totally unbalance meal, I must justify that the restaurant has a reason for drawing the crowd in the famous and competitive Hell's Kitchen. The burger was delicious, the meat patty was absolutely juicy and the bread is a perfect blend with the melting cheese. A messy but definitely fulfilling meal. My friend concluded that the name 5 Napkin was probably because the burger is so juicy, you will need to use up 5 Napkins. Interesting theory.

Some photos that I took at 5 Napkin and the burger:


Yes. They have the hooks used as decorations and I wonder if these were used hooks for the animals they used to make the burgers.


Oozing cheese, delicious medium-cooked ground chunk (10ounces, approximately 284grams.) with perfect combination of soft bread and caramelized onions... Heaven is near...


Not a single piece of green can be found in this meal.


Decorations, the hooks for the lights, the butcher scales and odd shapes bottles suspected to be soap dispensers.

Me and My Watches

Yes!! Yes!! I have finally bought watches from fossil this time!

Haha... It was no wonder that given the price cut at the factory outlet I would be determined this time to buy some watches. I planned for two, and it turned out 4. But, I was happy about it. Introducing my four new models...









The more I think of it, the more I want to go back and buy somemore. The only regretful thing is that I did not buy any funky digital watch.
