Not going out..

So I have this new cool thing in Cambodia. Not going out.. It so cool it is like going out but not. You stay home and vegetate for hours also doing things like cleaning your room. At first I was like what kind of loser foreign person stays home and does nothing when you live in a play ground like Cambodia. I mean you get a beer for 50 cent in a restaurant and less at a store.  

I decided that I was this kind of looser. I am loving it. Mind you I do not stay home every night but some, I mean I get this cool thing called rest. It is way under rated. On top of this I do not spend as much money. I am getting way too old. Let’s see how long I can keep this up.

Christmas in Cambodia

It is odd that Cambodian children love Christmas as most are not Christians. They don't know what it is but think that it is very cool. I think that many religions manufacture holidays to try to be as cool as Christmas. It never seems to work. Here they have Christmas trees and
say Merry Christmas but never really know what they are saying which means to have
a great time celebrating Christ's birthday. At my school they are even having a
Christmas party. On a personal note I have not decided on what to do for Christmas.

There is a bar called Alley Cats that is supposed to have a good Christmas dinner. Also a 3-5 star
hotel called Sofitel or something spelled more or less like that is supposed to
be good but expensive. It always seems like summer break here. So it is kind or
hard to get into the spirit.

Well to all those with nothing better to do then read my ramblings have a very Merry Christmas.

fighting

First I think you should not hit women but to think this guy was facing 34 years for hitting a woman. If he had hit a man he would have had to pay $1000 and a year in jail max. Women want to be equal but only if it is advantageous. So because it was domestic which is defined as

do·mes·tic - pertaining to ones house

it must be some ridiculous amount. The US legal system is just nuts. What is this saying as a society. It is saying that woman are more important then men... Yeah right.. so where is the outrage from women about this inequality? Like I said only equal if it works for them..

The road

I am in Cambodia. Everyday is an interesting day. Just yesterday I was in a head on collision. I was driving on my side of the road on a scooter and so were they. There is no law enfocement during the night. I had only minor damage to my self and the bike. I did not stick around to see if they did because I did not what to wait to see if they were going to call the cops. I am not Cambodian so naturally it was my fault and I would have to pay a "fine" to both the cops and the people. Mind you they were on my side of the road. Again they were on my side of the the road. This is a common way to drive in Cambodia.
