life's sticky stuff

for a very long time i have been craving this certain Filipino dessert. i actually don't know what its called, i dont think its called banana-cue but its made of dried bananas coated in lots of toasted caramel. When i finally got my hands on some yesterday i was really excited! But it was so weird when i bit into it. well it wasnt that weird. i knew it would be hard and tough to chew but damn was it ever! it felt like my bottom set of teeth was going to give out! it took me about 30mins to eat a whole piece. i had to crack it into a couple of pieces (which took many attempts btw) and chew them slowly one by one. And then the tricky part came. The sweet was wrapped in paper which was very difficult to rip off. most of the paper was pretty much stuck to the sugary coating. with as much patience as i could muster i tried to unravel the rest of it slowly and without bits of paper clinging to it. (believe me, you'll get to a point when you just want to chuck the whole damn package in the trash can.) But ofcourse after all the struggle and effort there would still be some stubborn bits of wrapper left. So did i eat what was left of it? hell yea. i was craving for it and already put a whole lot of effort into the 'sweet lil thing' well might as well go through with it right? bottomline, it was still yummy. i had eaten a whopping total of 2 pieces. My fingers were pretty sticky that whole afternoon too i think.

i pretty much function like this most of the time. and the other half of the time i spend wondering if it were really worth it.



--> MOto random stuff: its been a long time that i got hooked on a song but BOSTON is really nice. it wakes me up every morning on vh1 but i dont turn on the radio so i wont get sick of being overplayed on air.
ill be sleeping in the city once a week from now on...and class starts tomorrow...im a tad nervvvvouus...but i really hope i have fun. YAY!
