and thus a new chapter begins...

It is to be bohboh's and sh's LAST DAY OF WORK at nsiap today!!!
W00tw00t! *thunderous applause all round*
Congratulations and celebrations!
Sh aka xiaolaoban and bohboh aka photoshop guru... I will definitely miss you both in the office, the secret missions at yakun, the snack breaks and inane lunch conversations, the griping about anything and everything related to the office, the walks to the mrt together, the nights spent rushing work with the rest of the saikang gang, the midnight suppers at lau pa sat, the wrestling in the lifts and along the office corridors hahaha...
but at the same time it's exciting to finally embark on a new chapter of life isn't it? :)
One to a conference in Istanbul, the other to Tibet via the trip of her life - to the both of you, I salute and commend you for surviving kiamsiamnsiap *hands a certificate of commendation* You're free! free as a bird! FLY AWAY! (where kevin cannot reach you! hehehe)

Finbar the Irish

I met a irish man in a pub last night. Started talking, and he believes that the world will be a better place with nations, without relgion, without people like the pope telling the masses what is wrong or right, without goverment to bring the people to war... He believes that the world will change and become a world without boundaries... And he and poeple like those he was talking to will make the difference.

Then he said that he was actually an alien but forgot which galaxy he was from.

That was the highlight of the day.

Oh another thing about SA is that women breast feed their babies everywhere in public. They breast feed in on the boat, on the bus, , when the are sitting around on the street, they are always sitting around on the street, those that are in a hurry breast feed while walking. In resturant while they are eating... while I was eating... inbetween me and the television.... I was not sure of the eqitqutte... can I stare? But I am actually looking at the TV... the daddy looked mean so I decided to look at my food... the dinner felt quite long..

1 million things that suck

I found out that there are like 1 million different things in the jungle that will suck your blood. And there are like 1 million of each thing that sucks blood... I noticed 3 different types of moquitos... one type looks like they are wearing white socks, big ticks, small ticks, 1 million sandflies, big ones and small ones, funny black insects that but they are not very discrete, so easy to kill .... there is even a bee that punctured 2 holes on my heel and licked my blood....... yes I noticed that I did not list down 1 million things that suck blood, but there are probably more.

Anyway, have the tibet people left yet?

I am in iquitos now, still in the Amazon, but its a big city..... going for dinner later, anyone want to come... dun say I never jio hor.

Amazon is a $8 bus ride away

Hola Todos!

For those interested in how my trip is coming along... I ditched Galapagos Islands (my marine iguanas) to go to the Amazon... well I wil be leaving the Andes to head down to the dusty oil town of Coca (Ecuador) in the Amazon. Dont think I will be fighting off any piranahs, or have having breakfast with sloths or swiming with fresh water dolphins........ but i hope to take a boat to Iquitos (in Peru) along Rio Napo from Coca...

Anyways..... there is no internet on the boat so this might be my last entry till, 1st May when i should be in Lima Peru... if you get anything before that, likely my boat trip didn´t work out.

Hasta luego!!!
