Argggggggg

The day started really well as I got my Prince2 certification first time!

Then I did the worst interview ever. None of what I prepared came up and I've been preparing for days. It was all on the position rather than my ability to do the job. And it was all done with me smiling manically at a crappy webcam over a dodgy skype connection.

I really wanted that job - it was perfect for me. Stupid phone interviews with webcams - there's no time to think and you hear your voice echoing which makes it impossible to think clearly.

Well it's the dole queue for me in a few months I guess...

Well I'm off to drown my sorrows in beer and chocolate.

The youth of today

Sick of the youth of today - you're not the only one.

I went to Kep for the Water Festival. Most everyone I know got out of Phnom Penh as millions were diverging on the city. Kep was beautiful as always. I stayed at Veranda Guesthouse which consists of wooden cabins on stilts - pic number three is the outside of mine.

I have more photos taken with an analog camera which I will post when I get around to developing them.

Quite stressed at the moment as am so busy - exam on friday (no study done), interview on Monday (no prep done), three weeks to IV Day (virtually nothing done) and my boss if leaving and thus I'm organising parties - arggggg!

Motorbikes

I have a motorbike - well it belongs to the office but I have the use of it. Gotta say that I was a bit rocky starting off now now I've got it. No more near crashes for me. I can change gears, go the wrong way around a roundabout or a one way street. I can fill up the petrol tank.

Quite proud of myself actually!

Gun/ fire/ works

There were fireworks on Sunday night for the King's coronation and the former King's birthday. They were not particularly spectacular but the noise they made as they exploded into the night sky sounded uncomfortably like gunshots. The whole thing made me uneasy. I've never associated gunfire and fireworks before. Side effect of this place methinks...
