My Kiasu-ness Drove Me To This
It’s past midnight, I’ve got to work tomorrow, so what am I doing up and online?
I’ll give you a hint - he wears a fedora, carries a whip and names himself after his dog.
You guessed it - INDIANA JONES.
The big premier of the movie is this Thursday, so I’m now trying to get into the online system to book a pair of tickets for meself and Froggy. Unfortunately, it seems I’m not the only one with that idea.
The system is currently "being updated" or so they say. This usually happens when there are too many people trying to get in. I’ve been trying to get in since midnight.
Advanced sales of the tickets have been made available since the 15th, but since none of us are working near Gurney anymore, it’s a little difficult for us to take advantage of it, unlike Pirates of the Carribean.
OK, must not give up, must persevere, must keep trying. Patience will pay off. Even if I must stay up half the night, OK, I probably won’t. That would be just an extreme case of kiasuism. Worst come to worst, Froggy will just have to make a trip to Gurney to get the tickets just like when we tried to book for DaVinci Code.
I must admit, looking a the trailer, Harrison Ford still looks good, albeit a little "seasoned". But then, he’s the kind of guy who will always look good at any age and will never lose his charisma.
This will be Froggy’s virgin encounter with our intrepid archeologist hero.
Dr Jones, see you Thursday!
