On Monday, after much fighting, whining and moaning, my desire to cook greek food for dinner was finally allowed, and Liam and I had a massive feed of lamb souvlaki (with homemade yoghurt sauce) and hoe made falafels. Falafel is surprisingly easy and reasonable to make, though our 2 inch high pot holding 2 inches of oil, with balls of chickpeas being pelted at it, started a small fire. One it was out, we were able to get on, with no injury to speak of.
Then Tuesday...
After winning two tickets to see the Expendables 2 (some OUSA contest where you had to send in your best Chuck Norris joke) I was off, stuffed with Velvet Burger and surrounded by 2 giant children… After spending heaps of $2 coins in the outside-theater arcade, we went in. I got to my seat, which holy shit, the seats are assigned here… like, your ticket says what seat you're to be seated at, and tried to pull it down… I tried to pull it down so hard that I almost fell off of it. Apparently the chairs here are just chairs… you don't have to rotate the seat down to its seat-able position.
Leg room. I had more leg room than I'd ever had… it was like a first-class airplane experience. In fact, too much space. I didn't know where to put my feet. Another difference was the 'upholder' which of them was really just a paddle like extension of the arm rest, so not only could it hold your jumbo raspberry coke, but it was also a great table for the maltaseers and mixed M&Ms. So, Mixed M&Ms. imagine, you didn't have to make the choice of regular, peanut filled, or crispy (which is a whole story of its own because we don't have these delicious tokens of chocolatey goodness anymore in the states), but could instead buy a bag that was the perfect combination of all of them. Well, here you can.
Anyway, the movie was surprisingly good and the whole movie theater experience was fancier than any other theater I had been in prior.
