献给，爱我和我爱的 吴爸，吴妈
人在不会一个人骑自行车是永远不会骑车
人在没有失去过最珍贵的东西时，是不会珍惜眼前的一切
人的一生都在寻找爱
一个能收容自己心的地方
温暖，包容和了解自己的家
一份归属感
这份归属感只有家能了解
不管你是遇到快乐还是痛苦
唯独家人才能体会，感受的
想一想，
你最后一次对爸妈说爱你是什么时候？
你最后一次对他们说谢谢又是什么时候？
你有没有对他们说过晚安，给过他们拥抱？
还是当你想要为他们做些事时，
一切都变得太迟，来不及？
不要把对父母的爱隐藏起来
要懂得恩惠，惜福，知足
祝天下的父母，
母亲节快乐，父亲节快乐！！！

They are all friendly and nice ppl
Chhan, Dara, Mei Xiang and Ton
Sharon went for the cash register lesson alone today
Me, Fion and Ton are left to take care the shop
We got bored as there is nthing to do
Ton was a wood crafting maker here
I ask him to demonstrate how to make a key chain
Like those that you can put your name on it de
At first me and Fion taught that
the key chain base is wood
It however turns out to be a dried coconut shell
And the wood colour and texture
Is make use of shoe polish and the process of sawing
I make my name using the same method
From the cutting to the sawing and the finishing
And he also taught us khermil basic language
We 3 had fun learning all these language
Afternoon, me and Sharon went back to home
And saw tons and tons of ants here
Damn it, cos breakfast bits is on floor
There is NO INSECTICIDE
We had to clean ourself
Sharon go spray OFF
Den the whole floor wet
All the hair and ants stuck to the floor
Den had to use tissues to pick them up
(I’m glad that Joanne Low is not here).. Haha
Washing clothes SUCKS
Washing dirty rags SUCKS MORE
When there are ants and hairs
EWEE.. So ER XIN
We had tried a lot of local dishes today
Roasted Banana (500R for one stick 4banana)

Taste like sweet potato and the skin is salty
Very nice..
We also bought fruits from fruits stall
All fruits are 500R
Fion bought the water chestnut
Is big and crunchy
I bought a packet of fruits
That looks like small tomato
And taste like pomegranate
It has a lot of seed in it
I ate 3 and gave up
Tasted the mango here
Is very sweet and you cant get them in Singapore
Is the Mango season now
You can eat the Mango with rice
It is a dish in Cambodia,
Either a main course or a dessert
A dozen of damn sweet mango cost 14,000 R
Damn cheap, cos a sweet mango in spore cos 3 bucks
Btw everything that can be place in the mouth here is sweet
Even sardine and bread
We finally tried the duck egg
The one that had baby duck in it
OMG.. I cant believe I tried it
Not as disgusting as I thought
But after tasting
The smell and taste remains in
The stomach and mouth all day
1 egg cost (1200 R)(ard 40 cents spore) we bought 3
Fion bought a big fat corn that cost (1000R)
The corn is hot and is damn sweet
We did Stock taking for the whole day
Is a bit tiring
Cos we had to count the whole shop and warehouse stocks
So we abit nuai after that, and is very dusty
Haha.. dun get to finish today
So we should contd tmr…
We’ll going to dinner now le..
We went over for dinner at GBC

Fourth day
Rong Kun in Cambodia is Kang kong
Finally found some similarity between
My name and Cambodia.. haha
I am going crazy
I got Siao room mates, project mates and friends
I hadn’t called home since I land..Zai right.. Lol
Went to cash register lesson in the morning again
Practically I’m day dreaming cos I’m alone
Bought breads after lesson for Sharon and Fion
Bread in Cambodia comes in different form
But all is sweet.. haha
After Lunch,
Spend my afternoon in the shop with mei xiang
Sharon and Fion went to internet cafe
She taught me khermil language
So I learnt a lot today..
I can memorize the all the numbers in khermil
Tea time today is roasted egg.. haha
Mei xiang treat me (600R for 1 egg)
There is no egg yolk in the egg
All the egg yolk had been suck up
Den it is same like hard boiled egg
Except no egg white,k very nice..
After the shop is close,
Dara ask if I want to go internet café
He want me to help me sent some email
So when to the café and help him sent emails
To his foreign friends.
Had dinner with everyone,
Water melon is damn sweet here and cheap
Chatted for 1 hour
And I’m busy playing guitar
now I’m back home
Got so many things to do still..
And had to wake up early tmr for devotion service..
Li Ye Sheng Hai ( Bye in Khermil)
Sharon;
Cry everyday, after every phone call
Talk to insect everyday
Scream everyday
Apply lotion, pimple cream, and anti-insecticide cream
Fion ask me to add in this part;
She is a cry baby and whining queen
Fion (Sharon says she agree);
Cry also,
Talk to Laptop
Called her Laptop a bao bei
Laugh and sing (damn loud) randomly
Roll here and there each night
Dun like to wash clothes
Always says that she is a entertainment
And randomly beat my hand for nthing
Then she will reply got mosquito.. Siao
Sharon wants me to add this;
8 Steps to Fion washing clothes lesson
1) Stand there and ask Sharon how to wash clothes
2) Pour a little detergent den ask Sharon do what
3) Very gently rub the clothes
4) Ask Sharon what to do again; Sharon “Squeeze dry”
5) Ask Sharon what to do again; Sharon “Clean water la”
6) Squeeze dry for very long becos no strength
7) Kope hanger from room mates
8) Whine and complain;
Ask my mummy bring one month of clothes to Cambodia
I dun mind paying for maids to help me wash.
The clothes I wash I WILL NOT WEAR AGAIN!!!
Fifth day
Went for morning devotion session
Pastor Jimmy share about Luke Chapter 15
I almost cried, held my tears back
Lucky, hadn’t break my record, haha
Is a story about a father and 2 sons
The way the Pastor expresses the story
Touches me deep down in my heart
Parents, they are one that give you life
Sacrifice, love and care for you the most
No matter what you become, good or bad
They had to admit that you are still their child
I immediately thot of my bro when I heard the story
Especially now, I’m alone here
I yearned the love and care from mum and dad
Mummy will ask if I sleep well and eat well
Help me tug my blanket at night
Honestly, from the first day till now,
I only called once after I land, less than 2 mins
Sharon and Fion talked to their parents almost everyday
Fion mum also msg her like 2-3 times a day
Sometimes, they always ask why I dun want to call my parents
But I also dunno how to explain the emotion I’m going thru
Probably I think I cheap skate, wanna save money
Den I dun dare call.. haha..
Anyway, In life there are many turing points,
Being here in Cambodia now
Is probably destined and is a new chapter to start on
So to Mini market and JAM,
This is the best time for us to earn and grow up
Judge the world, see the world, feel the world
And be prepared before we enter the real world
Probably when I returned,
I will be more matured and independent
Love and treasure the world and what I had more
Forget about the sorrows and pain
Throw away the disappointment and depression
Learn to be more positive and care more in life..
Tried something new today also,
Noodles with fish paste, coconut, chilli and po piah
(3000R).. Less than 1.50 SGD..
Not bad very nice, sweet and sour..
Anyway our location got a lot of things to eat
Cos many tourists, so many road stall here
Shall praise Sharon today, helped to throw rubbish
But she din see inside got cockroach
Until she finishes throwing the rubbish,
den Fion screamed and say cockroach,
She went yelling again
Although I ended up throwing the rubbish like usual
But Sharon is a step closer to “I not scare of cockroach campaign”
Btw our house a lot of ants and cockroaches and insects visitors,
I end up killing them, cos the two girls gu niang
So they are willing to use their food stock in exchange for me to
Kill the insects, haha.. I’m earning food by killing insects.. haha..
For work, today did quite a lot of admin stuffs and organization chart
So I’m stopping here now..
Sixth day
We sort of overslept this morning
Too the tired the previous night,
It was pouring this afternoon,
The rain was damn big and
The wind juz contd to blow non stop
Bunnak gave a half day off to us
And suggest us to go sight seeing
But too bad the rain juz spoilt everything
So I stay in the shop and type emails
The roof is leaking so I was so called wet
I went back home and closed the window,
I saw the water rushing down the stairs
Outside the balcony leading to the roof.
It not juz flow down the stairs lor
Is practically like waterfall water rushing down
There after,
Around 3 after the rain stop,
wanna go wash clothes with Sharon
But the rain water flooded our roof
No wonder juz now the water rush down the stairs
And it covered our whole feet..
Donkey years ago, rubbish was being washed out and we found;
Old, tied used sanitary pad, drank jelly package,
Old black rotton mango seed, mineral bottles,
Detergent package etc..
We decided not to wash clothes anymore,
Our detergent powder all become waterish
Shall wake up morning tmr and wash again..
I HATE RAINY DAYS!!!!
Now, Sharon is another step closer to bravery
She cleared two rows of dead ants infected with OFF
But gave up half way, I helped to packed the ending..
I finally felt contented with the things I had back home..
