Day 8: El Ateneo

Uh, Oh! Forgot about this. Let me finish the Argentina trip with this entry. 

So on the last day, I still have time to spend at BA since my flight will be at night but need to check out room at 12 noon- managed to nego defer to about 1 o'clock. Jadi nak buat apa? 

Though my reading I happened to know there is unique bookstore in BA; previously it was an old theatre. The interior still remain very much as theatre setup. Question is, where and how to get to the place? Google for everything nowadays kan. So it helps.. Few subway stations away from my place and a bit of walking, taraaa!

Shared block with other stores, pay attention to the entrance. Or just watch where fellow tourist heading to, this is kinda must visit place for bookworms. 

Main stage. Now become a cafe or place to chill while reading like a boss. So quiete tak dengar bunyi cawan bergesel pun #Manner

The view. Had to put your face here la else kena accuse "setakat gambar internet tak payah nak poyo". Staff sini pun friendly or to put it in other words- they don't mind tengok tourist datang ambil gambar instead of buying the books #TouristSpot

Look at the top. Bukan ex gereja ye. Memang nice setup Kedai ni. Bawah sekali section for music lagu-lagu, ground main area (cafe), second and third floor for books with various sections (sama cam kino, MPH, boarders).

VIP/ bangsawan seating jadi browsing area. The book is something something about cholesterol. In Spanish! How do I know kan, yang penting posing

From other angle. Through my googling to find how to get here, this bookstore is actually ranked no.2 in the world tau in terms of coolness, content, interior yada yada.. No.1 if not mistaken dekat Lisbon. I am not worried much, bookstore kita lagi hipster. Books are sealed, nak baca, kena beli. That's the price for knowledge.

After checked out, I just round round nearby area try to spend the remaining pesos. Before 5 the driver datang pick up  then straight to the airport. I was forced to listen to his selection of music the entire trip. Nice guy though.

Ok folks, that's all for Argentina. Bye bye 

Social Media Reality Check

Hi all. Am not going to talk about traveling stuff. Boo! Instead, allow me to share with your my quick social media experiment findings in none other than Facebook platform.

So we went back to Lipis the other weekend and I had this kinda idea in my mind, just not sure yet how to execute it. My hipothesis be like "strangers are easily to give Like in Facebook rather than your known (approved) friends". 

Methodology:

1) Post something on my own status

2) Post something random on others/ public account status; 

Wait and compare which post gained more Like.

At the moment I am so into "On This Day" app by Facebook, so I just posted simple status, as below. In case you don't know the # : it was referring to a different issue. And.. 5 Likes! Okay.. 

Thanks for the Likes tho! 

About an hour before the above, I posted something on others page which was completely unrelated to the original post; on purpose. See below

And...51 Likes!!! Last I checked the post is getting more Like. Cayalah. Most Like I ever have in my Facebook history! I think so

By the way there were also some knee-jerk comments from my post. Apehal? They were like "Aku dah like, pergi berambus", "Dah pergi masuk gua" and "Gila like sangat mamat ni!" #Sentap 

Dik.. Kindly read first before give your comment la. I didn't ask for Like, that was merely a question. Background check, memang budak-budak lagi diorang ni. Ceh

Conclusion by captain obvious, I am just right. Facebook kinda irrelevant anyway, those in your circle won't easily approved your post by liking it. Maybe you are such a drama king/ queen. Hehe. Whilst, those stranger when meet in common platform, tak loket nak like, comment (most of the time judgemental, cari salah, finger pointing etc.). Probably it is because no string is attached.

Ok la. That's that. Nak focus on father to be duty. Who's excited?!
