This is by far, the best photograph I've taken in my entire life.
Hahah. Or that is what I think of it. Hahaha.
Soo I shall bore you guys to death with my Cambodian stories which are not so boring.
15th October 2009.
I woke up around 8am?
Showered and prepare and did some last minute packing.
I was 99% packed already, it was just the tooth brush + toothpaste and all that stuff you need to use up to the last minute.
And then I was just hanging around my house until 9.30am.
Left the house, mom sent me to college.
And I saw people and bags.
I was like "Awesome, I'm going to Cambodia!"
And then I hung around college.
And then we had to carry about a kg or 2 of stationaries for the orphans.
So we got that packed.
We hung around college until the bus arrived.
So we loaded the bus with our bags, get our seats and we were off to LCCT.
Arrived at LCCT, checked in and scanned the bags.
Then I went to Dunkin Donuts. Alone.
Cause the others were separated during the scanning and all that.
They went to Espresso something and I was at Dunkin Donuts.
So I called my friend and went to Espresso after that.
I was running around trying to find change for 100 USD's.
Cause I brought like, 200 USD's and both of em are 100 dollar bills.
Even the money changer doesn't have the change.
Stupid Airport.
And then they called us to board the plane.
So we went to the plane and sat for about, 45 minutes, the plane started moving.
We were frigging excited.
And then the captain announced about an engine failure so we had to evacuate the plane so that the engineers can do their job.
It was delayed for about an hour or two. I can't remember.
"Air Asia. Now everyone can fly. A little bit later. "
That should be their quote.
So we left Malaysia around 6 I guess. Can't remember.
Arrived in Phnom Penh International Airport.
Got our luggages and all.
And Muhammad left his wallet on the plane and it has like, 200 USD's.
And he went to find it but it wasn't there.
And he was like "It's okay. I have a second wallet."
And everyone was like "O.O"
How many wallets does he have man.
Someone said he has like, 4 wallets.
Bloody rich. All of em are filled with money.
So after that everything went fine.
We left the airport and went for dinner.
It was a fancy restaurant.
It was quite nice.
Left for the hotel after that.
Checked in.
Room 304, roomate was Saiful.
After checking in we didn't know what to do so I went to the lounge and used the internet.
1 dollar per hour.
Hahah pfft.
There was no free wi-fi.
What the hell.
So I was with Andrew, Shah, Anamika, Ernest, Surej, Martin (a new friend from Denmark which we randomly found at the lounge), and some other people.
Martin was impressed by our English.
And they had a debate on religion.
It was productive. Really. It was a very good debate.
It should be live on CNN or something.
So yeah, I left 'em around 12am.
Went to sleep straight.
And Saif came knocking on the door around 2 am cause he was at Ali's room and he wanted to sleep already.
Hahaha.
So the next day, 16th October 2009.
Woke up at like, 7am I guess.
Got ready, went for breakfast and left the hotel to see the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda.
Beautiful Architecture I tell you.
I was amazed.


Went to the museum after Silver Pagoda and Royal Palace.
There were millions of statues.
I find some statues weird.
No photography was allowed though.
So I didn't take any picture.
Went for lunch after that.
Then we left for The Killing Fields.
Literally everyone in Cambodia who was not in Khmer Rouge was killed.
And when Khmer Rouge took power, they evacuated the city, the ones who are in pain would most likely die on the way out of the city.
17 000 people were killed.
That destroys 30% of the population I guess.
Watched the 7 minute movie but fell asleep halfway.
The room was so stuffy and hot.
I did not have enough oxygen, so I became sleepy.

After the Killing Fields, we went to some prison.
I think it was the Khmer Rouge Prison.
The people who were in there got tortured like, massively.
And the place is haunted.
I swear to god.
They took pictures and picture of ghost appears and they put it on the pictures place.
And the title was "Ghosts of the prison" or something like that.
That scared the shit out of me.

Well atleast the garden was beautiful. :)
And the day ended.
Went for dinner, went back to the hotel.
Showered and bla bla.
Chilled in Ali's room watching him, Mustafa and Saif smoking pot.
Went to KFC after that.
And almost everyone was there.
The KFC there is halal.
Saiful was so high, he bought a Zinger burger, and he didn't want to eat it cause he thought it wasn't halal, so he gave it to his friend.
A second later, I think Abdullah showed us the halal sign on the door.
And the chilli sauce was made in Malaysia.
It was bloody obvious.
Sos Cili.
Hahahahahah.
And then Saif bought another burger.
Hahahah.
Went back to the hotel, they wanted booze, so some of em went to get Jack Daniels.
The rest waited in Jimmy's room.
Then they came, I edited my photos while they were drinking and all.
Watched the nude scenes of American Pie Beta House cause Jimmy wanted to.
Hahahaha.
Then the night ended, went to sleep.
The next day, woke up at 6.40am.
17th October 2009.
Got ready, went for breakfast.
Left the hotel for a one hour and a half trip to Oudong.
There were so many temples and Stupas.
And the final one was amazing, breath-taking and beautiful.
I swear to god you would die for a view like that.
The place was cool and breezy.
And the view was.. I was speechless when I saw the view.
You would never see such views in Malaysia.
God's creations are perfect.
We weren't allowed for so long.
We were allowed for about 15 minutes, but we played with them for like, more than half an hour.
So yeah, we had fun there, the orphans are pretty rough though.
Hahah.
Went to the Russian Market after that.
We weren't there for long.
I just bought keychains there.
Some of the people bought snake juice.
The teachers drank the snake juice. Like, literally.
Bloody hell eh?
And then we went back to the hotel, and we're supposed to arrange our own dinner.
I went to buy my Ray Bans with Saif, then we went to some Seafood restaurant and had Sweet & Sour Shrimps and mixed vegetables.
We ordered 300 grams of shrimps and that was so satisfying.
Cause only 2 of us were eating.
We went to FCC after that, at the Riverside.
And then some people decided to leave.
Nisha, Shah, Anamika and I went to Happy Pizza place.
I wasn't planning to eat though, I just wanted to follow.
That was Super Strong Large "HAPPY" Pizza.
I didn't have it though.
I didn't wanna get high.
I won't give you details cause what happened in Cambodia stays in Cambodia.

This is the "Happy" Pizza they ate.

They really did enjoy. Hahaha.
Then we went back to the hotel for awhile.
Went back to FCC, chilled with the guys for a bit.
And then we went clubbing at the Floating Club.
People were having Margarita's and beers and all that.
I had coke. Hahahah. :)
It was funny.
No pictures at the club though, cause I was there for about only half an hour?
Cause some of my friends wanted to leave.
So we left the club and went back to the hotel, chilled in Andrew's room.
Smoked my Vanilla Independence Cigar.
Hahahah, well, I didn't inhale so it doesn't count as smoking.
It was just for the cool. Haha.
Went back to the room and slept.
Woke up at 8.48 the next day.
18th October 2009.
Got ready and had breakfast.
Chilled, went to the Central Market.
Bargained like mad.
Helped Saif and Shah bargain.
There was this frigging cool laser beam.
It was literally like disco lights.
Frigging cool I swear.
But it was 40 USD's and there is no way the people would let us bargain.
We tried, trust me.
Bargaining became an addiction, I swear.
I bought a few more keychains, 2 Playboy necklaces & 2 shirts.
And I frigging saw a Gibson Les Paul, and they're selling it for 210 bucks.
Fucking hell eh.
It's probably fake but the brand...
If you use it only the musicians will notice.
Anyone else would probably not care.
Went to Happy Pizza for lunch.


I had Tuna Pizza.
The best Tuna Pizza I've ever tasted.
And mine was "VERY SAD" pizza cause I didn't want to get high.
But it tasted so damn nice. I swear.

Yesssss. Some of em had "Happy" pizza, and the flight was a few hours away.
They were frigging brave.

This is a Tuk-tuk.
Our transport to everywhere. It wasn't so hot, even in the afternoon. Hahah.
All I can say is that I loved Phnom Penh.
I hope there are more trips like this to come.
I shall sleep now. College tomorrow.
Functions 11 in the morning. 8am.
I don't wanna be late again.
