Thursday Evening in Subang

We decided that a trip to the driving range was in order.

This is our favorite restaurant. Actually, it's not our favorite, but we spend a lot of time there. The beer is reasonably priced and if you sit in those red chairs and look towards the trees, it kind of feels like you're at the beach. Ghetto fab!

This is one of the numerous DVD shops in Subang Jaya.  We stopped here to take care of some business on our way to the driving range.

You won't believe it, but I actually cured the infamous "St.Germain Slice" on this trip to the driving range. 

Back to the chateau

Phnom Penh Shooting Range

This was my third and most interesting trip to the shooting range. Details are classified.

Sihanoukville

In my head Sihanoukville is Margaritaville. It's a laid back place. There are wood shacks all along the beach selling BBQ. The average price for a mug of beer on the beach is $0.50. We stayed at Beach Road Hotel for $15/night and it had a great swimming pool right outside our room. Paradise!



Some kind of bug attacked Adam in Siem Reap.



Hell Boat




We spent one of our days in Sihanoukville snorkeling. The snorkeling was great and the island we went to was fantastic. However, the boat ride was 4 hours of hell each way.

D
o you see that guy sunbathing near the little river that runs into the sea? Well, that little river takes all the toilet water out to sea. We just had a few beers while laughing at the guy. Ignorance is bliss!

Angkor Wat for the 4th Time

My friend Adam came to visit me while I was on holiday in Cambodia. I figured I had to take him up to Siem Reap to see the temples. The weather was perfect that day, so it was an enjoyable trip. Apart from the temples, there isn't much to do in Siem Reap so we only stayed a few days.





Hey Adam, I think that might be a dude.






Taking a break at the temples.


Scarface at his hotel in Siem Reap.



Here I am sitting on the only halfpipe in Cambodia. It's on the roof of X Bar in Siem Reap. The ramp is being fixed right now becaue the rain messed it up. Last time I was at X bar I tried to bust a kickflip and almost broke my arm.

Phnom Penh

When arrived in Phnom Penh we stayed in a $4/night guesthouse in the backpacker ghetto in Phnom Penh. By some miracle, we didn't get robbed. Mikky thought she could save some money by getting a $5 curl and colour. I thought the results looked good, but the next day it all went terribly wrong. At this very moment, Mikky is getting her hair correct in Malaysia for RM150.



The hair looks good here, but it mutated soon after.












This is Walkabout. It's a down and dirty bar in a down and dirty city. I call it my second home. Open 24 hours.

ICPU 54th Graduation Ceremony

Here I am at ICPU's 54th graduation ceremony. This is my 6th grad at Taylor's. This semester there were so many graduates that we had to have a morning and afternoon session. This is the first time I didn't "suit up" for a grad. The reason is that I lent my suit to an unemployed individual for a job interview. I always do kind stuff like that;) Anyway, I forgot I lent it to him and therefore have not requested the return of the suit. Actually, some friends of mine picked up some good suits in Bangkok for about $100, so I think I'll just wait for my next trip to Thailand to get some new ones.

Graduation day signals the end of another semester and the start of another holiday. According to my experience, it takes at least one week to overcome the post traumatic stress the semester.

Congratulations to all the ICPU grads!

ICPU Prom Shots

Here are some images of ICPU teachers from last night's prom. I'll probably add more photos as I get them.

PD Day

I volunteered to co-facilitate a workshop with Ms. Hacker as part of a professional development day for teachers from a local secondary school. The theme of the day was student-centered learning. Our workshop focussed on cooperative learning.



The workshop in action.



They gave me an eight gig thumb drive as a thank you gift. Awesome!



This group was very active and eager to participate. More than 100 people attended.

After the workshop, I had tea with the school administration. I was asked two different times if I was married or not. I later found out that they were inquiring because they had daughters of marriagble age. If I'm ever single again I'm definitely going to sign up to host more of these workshops.

Good luck at Schulich Nikky. Thanks for the high quality pictures.

Snickers Class aka P4

One of the rare times that I actually pose for a picture. We're supposed to look like super heros.



The one and only Period Four



I snuck into this picture.



As of this post, 4 of 6 cupcakes have been eaten. I swear these are the best cupcakes ever made.

Accounting P2

Most people think accounting is boring. However, I can say that there was never a dull moment in period two. P2 has helped to set a very high standard for future accounting classes. You'll be missed. Thanks:)

Cool Dudes



This is Aaron "The Biographer". He wrote a detailed biography of me for his English project.

Tears in Heaven

This is a picture that looks like my Siamese Fighting Fish named Joy. She was eaten last night by Polo the fatso turtle.



This is a picture of Polo. He is currently in solitary confinement for two days for the murder and consumption of Joy.

Seriously though, Asia Cafe in Subang SS15 has a gnarly selection of creatures for sale after sundown.
