Finally, I am connected to T-mobile Wi-fi in a Starbucks cafe in Las Vegas. The registration process is really a pain in the ass. Took me about an hour to get connected because I have totally forgotten my login name and password I have registered in New York last year. GRRRR.
Las Vegas - The City of Sins. Well, I have probably committed Sloth, Gluttony, Greed and Envy.
Sloth is waking up every morning and deciding against going to any seminars in the conference.
Gluttony is pigging out big-time in the cheap buffets that are rampant in Las Vegas. I consumed oysters, prawns, prime cuts, and loads of ice cream. Ahhh. *Rubs Tummy*
Greed - I am always against playing the slots machine ever since cornscious and I witnessed our 10-dollar bill being ursurped by the evil conniving casino invention. As such, whenever my parents go on board the Star Cruise for casino games, I avoid the accursed place completely because I am not blessed with gambling skills. Nevertheless, I succumbed to my roommate's request to impart blackjack skills to her. In the teaching process, I got hooked on the blackjack machines as well. At the start, I was winning. But I got greedy. In the end, I lost USD30. Boohoo. Moral of the story - Quit while you are ahead! It's so simple to talk the talk, but just so difficult to walk to talk. Blah.
Envy - Envy is when I peered enviously at the old lady next machine when I heard the sweet melody of coin clinks. Envy is when I smiled sweetly and uttered congratulations, but was really cursing the same old lady for choosing the right machine. :P
All right, my laptop batt is totally running low! I have 2 hours to pass before my shuttle bus to the airport.
Ugh, have..to..resist...urge...to...recoup...losses....
