The Filler

Short update, just to keep the blog alive. Notice I haven't been updating for a while now, been rather busy with quite a few things. Maybe now I do shorter but more frequent updates.

Well, breakfast in Cambodia, pretty healthy stuff, I think.

Usually I don't even eat breakfast.
There, they serve breakfast for free, so I whacked everything.

I kinda miss Siam Reap. It's probably the full body massage. It was a rather funny experience. Now I feel like I need a massage.

_DSC9890
No not this one, although I don't know what this really means... Birdy massage hmmm...

Another Day In Pain-dise

Final day in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Well, we had only a few hours in Phnom Penh. Plenty of food I haven't try, it's kind of sad. This day was a painful one. Painful stories, painful bus trip, lunchless pain. My first time having that much bread in just a few days. That should explain the title.

I love the weather there. That morning, I woke up to a really loud music around 5:00a.m. "What the heck?!", I thought. Then later found out that there's a wedding right opposite our hotel.

This image is blurred due to the zooming during the rather slow-shutter shot. I turned the lens by accident, but like this shot more than the normal one.

And then we were off to see the wiz... No, uh, to the Genocidal Museum.

Whatever happened there was very bad, inhuman. What some people would do to others for anything, sometimes I just don't understand.

_DSC9797
This room had its own story. There are a few buildings, loads of stories to be told. A rather depressing place.

_DSC9810

Right after that, we visited the Genocidal Center.

_DSC9830
It's a beautiful place, but more sad stories. Mass killing graves everywhere.

_DSC9846

_DSC9867
The many skulls inside the building. The number of skulls in this image is like, maybe only 2% of all the skulls you can find inside this building.

A few weeks back, around the time I came back from this Cambodia trip, I saw a news. "Killing Fields" trial to start 30 years after the fall of Pol Pot.

Enough of sad stories for now. Left the sad place, rented a "tuk-tuk" to scout for lunch.

_DSC9872
Despite being a tourism spot, these guys gave me a feeling that they're not very used to tourists. I wonder why. Or maybe it's just weird to shoot at anything.

_DSC9879
Even in Cambodia, can find Klang Bah Kut Teh. We didn't eat that, we never had anything for lunch that day. Scouting fail.

And then, we said bye-bye to Phnom Penh and headed to our next destination, Siam Reap. A truly awesome place.
Of course, that will be in the next update. lol~

The Shouting of Genting

It's been what, 10-11 days since I last blogged? Yeah have been out for quite a while.
Anyway, went up to Genting Highland on 15th of March 2008 with a group of Shouters. Well that's, for now, the best Genting Highland trip I've ever joined. Traveling with a bunch of crazy people is really exciting.

It was freaking cloudy and misty.

DSC04603
It would have been a pain driving up if it rained, lucky us, it didn't.

The clouds were crawling everywhere, covering every part of the forest. Wanted to record a video on it, but suddenly I had something else to shoot.

Firewire moulala became a bit siao and promoted the rubbish bin.

For those who didn't understand moulala, it's cantonese, meaning - suddenly. As for siao, who wouldn't know? I don't think I have readers from anywhere except Malaysia. Uh, is there? lol~

DSC04622
The great big foot, I know not the reason they made the giant foot print.

DSC04623
I know not the reason of this too. Promoting exit sign?

DSC04624
This one is different. I catch no ball though.

DSC04626
Daniel again, this time trying to cabut the pagoda.

Again, for those who didn't understand cabut, it's Malay, meaning - extract? More like pluck.

DSC04635
Spotted a giant mozzie. And this was the best shot I could get with my 18-70mm lens.

DSC04643
And Firewire promoting the Gents.

It's truly fascinating, traveling with very very crazy and fun people. Next up, more Genting photos! Also, I might cut in with a little something else. Thanks for reading! Have a good day!
