serendipity?

it was reflecting & good one .. so let me sing this for you-

As life goes on I’m starting to learn more and more about responsibility
I realize everything I do is affecting the people around me
So I want to take this time out to apologize for things I have done
I wish that we could go back to when it was just you and me
I’m sorry for the times I would neglect
Sorry for the things that I did not say
Like how you are the best thing in my world
And how I'm so proud to call you my man

I understand & I am not too blind to know
All the pain we have
Even though you might not show

Sorry for the things that I did not say
I love you, babe-

water festival (last day) ...

last day of water festival- people are rushing around, looking for left stocks to keep ..
i've been there- during the day 'til evening, but i pass out the night section, which i think it will be more crowds & lots of happening moments- ..

went there, check out how the crowd, since this is the 1st time i'm around during my 4 years stayin in cambodia. Not even a single festival i was here, only this time- so i wont miss it-
what a hell of crowds, i can say-

people from provinces comin in to gathered the festival, boat racing & check out new water featured along independence monument.
would be nothin new to us - but for these people, interesting part of the world is happening.

join with gorgeous person, to check out the crowds- hmm.. not bad. Got to queque for almost half hour to get my toilet seat- and got cold for wearing wrong dress code-
i was on my strapples, cause it was hot during the day- when sun falls, damn breeze just comin in & i wasnt prepare with any jacket- so, there i am .. seating quitly, trying to warm up on the corner.

walkin around riverside, people spilled from every corner-
u can taste the festival spirit amongs them, its something i havent feel for sometimes ...

25 November'07

this's last day of water festival-

people hurying to each booth/stalls, to check out whats left to carry ... big package of laundry soaps to use 'til middle of next year, clothes to stock, shoes to replace old rusty one, and many more ...


i was on the seller side, so approximately i'll see how selling increase quite well.
being half day, watching people come and go .. checking out comodity & prices .. or simply just spending time, watching crowds, like my fren does-


my friend open 2 booths, selling cosmetic range- from face powder to nail polish. Goin on well, in my opinion- more and more people come & purchase make up, either for themshelves or for their daughther - (and other one opening cigars booth)

it was so cute .. there's this small little girl, coming into the booth, n start to look around - seems like she's choosing which color she prefers... then later on, mom & dad coming- help her with paying bills. ahahahha...

Water Festival (bfore) ...

its just the beginning of the festival, they havent even started it yet- .. but roads are compacted with bunch of people..


journey today start from dinner with colleaques- at Anana's Cafetaria. Sait Ko Ang, means: beef satay?! .. plus hot bread with butter & cambodian pickles. Accompany by free hot tea, that makes our dinner-
strolling to riverside, starting from Naga Casino area- check out those booths, ready to promote their product. They're actually started already! .. and seems customer couldnt wait 'til Big day coming. They start their expense- yeah, spend...spend ..

Variety from snacks, cosmetic, daily goods, bread (Apsara Bakery is having largest amount of booths), shoes, clothes 'til cigarette & cigar - they even got big stage on the center, having schedule performance - for people around. Loud music is what I'm talkin about-
Separate from those area, you'll find activities in front of Royal Palace goin on as ussual, the only different is amount of people around- ahahahha, it's floaded with people!

some goin for pray, some just walk around- rather sitting bored inside stuffy home ...

suddenly come up all those seller, u used to see on smaller street- they start to build a compound for themselves .. ahahahha-my expression, only..
oh, those boil peanuts- I love ...

royal palace looks great, too - they light up the whole lights, in more details then they used too- plus fireworks .. bang..bang..bang.. suasana makin meriah!!!

Authentic Dinner -

finish work, driving along norodom blvd- we arrived at Shiva Shakti.

Famous Indian restaurant in town- pricy too, but best indian food you'll get- trust me!!

small harmonious place, with background of indian's classical instrument ...
warm lights comin from indian's light fixtures, hanging scented surround corners-
red color splashes along the wall- gives warm feeling on the inside. rama-shinta's also decorated the place. niceee....

food started with appetizer, which are triangle bread, fish, chicken & tasty cream sauce-

continue with butter & garlic naan as 2nd options, combine with choices of green beans, tofu, chicken, and vegetables curry. Got the cheese, too-
taste so much in heaven ....

as discussion continues .. food flows, still-
end up with sweets- like in pict. So much sweet, shocking ur mouth- after all main course, we had. sweet- sour mixed together. Phirin (new girl, I met during dinner) mentioned it was mixed with orange, so create the sour taste. who knows?
uhmm.. there's another surprises - they bring you a small plate with cigarretes & some spices together. what should i do? here we goes:
take some of the spices, from small bowl .. chew on it- its purpose to give fresh breathe after dinner.
after? .. light up the cigarrete (pretty small one) & enjoy the rest-
don't forget the bill, guys....

sunday trip .. what's next?


it was sunday- and really, we got to plan out what's next- otherwise, dying bored, man-
then this is the plan: wake up for breakfast at 8 then get lazy bfore 11. right, babe? ..

heading to steung trey (if i'm not mistaken in writing) .. for lunch with the swing.
too bad, we didnt have swing, but it's okay- we're cool. Lunch .. lunch, here we come!
food was expensive - but place was quite cool. Counting the breeze, some boat passing by- watching local's playin cards (other word: gambling) ... teenagers laughing & parents discussing- for politics, how making money, etc.
relax a bit, sniff at cigar's smell- then take my butt off .. and go straight to L'Imprevu - for some exercise ... swimming!!!

ehehehe, it was short quick swim, but anyway- it was fun .. notice there's small little girl with big appetite, and kids playin around.
this view was taken from back corner of the place- such a good location, is it?
gettin wet & work out my arm & legs- feels good ....

good weekend, babe -

seseorang..

eee... ada crita baru deh, wanna share kebahagian - walaupun sesaat .. walaupun berharap bisa diperpanjang - (sedihnya..)

gw ketemuan ma seseorang yang bisa anehnya cocok dengan hal2 yang gw lakuin sehari2 ... mulai dari tontonan ampe seneng nyoba2 tuh- bener2 asik deh ...
well, sbenernya gw kangen segh- tapi masih ga jelas mpe kapan bisa bertahan, karena banyak alasan yang dibelakang kejadian- sayang segh benernya, but mau gimana-

orangnya asik n bisa jalan bareng, gaul bareng-
blun lagi soal anjingnya yang super cute & lutju banget ...
masih banyak crita yang bisa di share, tapi maybe lebih baik untuk diskusi bareng 'kaleee...

i'm sure, dia tau klo gw ada blog- maybe u're there, ngebaca yang skarang ini- just want u to know ... but i'm sure you knew it.
there's nothing else in this world, instead being with u, fishy- .. (ehehehhehe ..)

kamu bring back the shine idup aku.... i like it-
penuh pengertian & understanding .. that's yang aku rasa-
maybe not too easy for u to understand what i've wrote ... kinda beda dikit dalam bahasa, i used slank words more- told u so...

but, true- fish .. aku kangen kamu-

additional info:
Nov 29th .. the more i think of u & me - us .. i felt tremble of what we're having on-
Nov 30th .. i realize there's no path for us to be together (now) - lookin at the way we both run our life. too bad, but maybe next time we can have our time again & forever.
