This is real world, not a test

上面那句话是9/11事件中FAA officer和NORAD第一次通话时候的对白(在金边的asia-books竟然买了本The 9/11 Commission Report。。。然后发现其实真好看呀。。。)

然后今天回到了real world, 我挣扎到10点决定连上VPN看看16天来会有多少没有处理的Notes。。。然后发现有150封。。。然后我先删掉了90封垃圾邮件+系统邮件等一看就是没关系的东西,余下的大概有5封farewell letter…10多封娱乐群发信,还有几十封应该没啥大问题的信。。。然后看到了偶最大一个项目的老板写给偶的一串信以及。。。北京老板“们”发出来的信。。。然后只大概扫了一下发现有点问题但是不是大问题,这才放心了不少。。。

(上面都是在说什么啊,靠)

然后我就准备安心继续整理照片。。。然后发现偶的DVD-Recorder不工作了。。。妈的

anyway… 偶准备写一点抨击所谓“攻略”的东西。。。还有回忆一下偶看到的各国backpacker的区别。。。(论文???)

With a can of Beer Lao

The Lawn at the Royal Palace

Now writing in Phenom Penh, Capital of Cambodia. We have a little trouble (again!!) when apply for the visa on arrival at the immigration of cambodia, having totally no idea why such “people-make-100usd-per-month-averagly” could think of I could be a fugutive or run-away and put on a suspisious face then inquired for half hour… just for we will leave this country by bus and not by a first class flight??? ridiculous… However, this little trouble didn’t bring too much bad thing afterwards.

People here a generally kind, with smile even they are quite poor, this photo was taken in the afternoon right after the grand palace tour. after that, we had a good and cheap dinner ( compare previous experience) at the lake nearby… very “hippi-style’ place… picture will be uploaded later…

tomorrow… go to siem reap by Mekong Express, Angkor wat, we are coming…

P.S. Beer Lao… great beer but cannot find in China… pity…

Cute child in Russian Market…

Pre-departure & Farang is coming ~~

电视里放了一对上海老夫妇跑到欧洲自助游,花了5w待了很久,然后每天就吃方便面(PEPZ说是吃什么咸菜+白开水)过日子,回来以后还有出版社去找他们写书,感觉怎么很像前几年那个什么一个男人跑遍全球号称只用了多少多少钱然后记者采访他他还说什么我买机票的网站是不能告诉你的这个是我的绝招,我吐啊只能说是一个青蛙借着出国留学的便利爬到了井口然后回过头来告诉井里的同伴说哇原来外面那么大啊。。。不过国内知道Budget Airline的人也的确太少了,所以就便宜了我这种厦门飞曼谷机票只花了1xxRMB的人。。。哇哈哈哈哈

于是我刚想说这2个阿姨伯伯真幸苦把上海人吃苦耐劳的精神发扬到了欧洲但是一定要小心不要回来营养不良你说我又不懂了为什么上海特别是40-60的阿姨伯伯们,对超市里便宜个3毛钱或者送个纸扇子都可以早上6点去排队但是房价涨个几十万还觉得不贵拼死要买捏?好好玩耶。。。。。

明天就出发啦,大家bb… 最后一刻突然考虑要不要从Siem reap走边境回泰国的时候先跑到Ko Samet或者Koh Chang爽上个几天捏。。。还是乖乖回到Bangkok把所有能去的都去遍。。。越发感觉去一个到处都是人而且大家都去过的地方太不爽了,而且无论走到哪里都会有上海人pop up from no where。。。就如2年前在苏梅岛突然跳上我们tuk tuk的那个妖怪。。。哎,上海中年以上的同学们出去能不能不要到处操着上海话高声叫嚷一副暴发户而且特无知的那种表情呢。。。:S

我越发感觉这次要char爆了。。。现在的recovery已经降低到10%了。。。再char一点点就爆了。。。。

然后LP里特别提到去Cambodia一定要购买Emergency Evaucation的保险。。。PICC和Pingan都提供但是貌似太贵了点,虽然公司提供International SOS的Coverage但是前提是Business Trip。。。然后最后还是没买这种高档的就搞了Accidental&Medical Coverage。。。然后想到了Bable。。。5555 偶要好好穿马路~~~

翻拍翻拍。。。Diving at Boracay~

Diving at Boracay

最后的最后,希望回来以后可以是一个比较好看的tan,而不是被人看成越南老伯的tan~

Now everyone can die…

Air Asia

Originally uploaded by NPNG!.


Actually,Airasia的口号是now everyone can fly (的确是everyone, 当年过边检同一架飞机的排我前面的2个老兄就是偷渡的最后被扣下)… since很多人会感觉这样的廉价航空公司是否在安全性上低于普通commercial airliner而搞出标题这样的话就不得而知了。第一次乘Airasia是在2005年,买了票到了机场发现竟然是这家最大的亚洲廉价航空公司的中国首航,航线为厦门<—>曼谷。记得当时由于燃油附加费比较低,所以来回曼谷的机票一共只要800多块,让很多没有听说过廉价航空公司的同学大跌眼镜,由于是首航,飞机上1/3都是记者,然后Airasia哪怕是对记者也很廉价,只送了一人一个小飞机纪念品。。。之后我还乘过其他几家廉价航空公司班机,比如新加坡的Tigar Airway和Value Air(去年被Jet Star收购),以及菲律宾的Cebu Airline,其中感觉Value Air真是太棒了!Brand New Airbus320,真的是Brand New,Spotless,感觉是刚刚出厂一样,机舱要多干净有多干净,登机时候机舱内弥漫着加湿的喷雾,座椅前后宽度比东航的经济仓都要宽(人生一大悲惨经历是乘上航从上海到乌鲁木齐大概4个多小时的航班,那椅子刚刚能把我这个70KG的人塞进去,然后可以不用绑安全带就一动不动),从曼谷到新加坡来回只要RMB800。。。而你唯一的“区别待遇”是没有免费的餐食而要自己购买(ValueAir是有的),再看看我们的CA/FM/MU….套句流行的话就是“你们太有才了”。。。

好吧,这次偶再次要走厦门<–>曼谷航线,来回含税仍然是不到1000。。。BKK–>PNH也只要400RMB…

听某人说今年Airasia会开通杭州到马来西亚航线。。。这个。。。爽呆了不成。。。

瓦哈哈哈哈

In case你想多一点感性了解。。。请访问www.airasia.com (没时间做URL大家copy&paste吧)

bb~

P.S.题图不是偶拍的,偶那时候还是胶片狂人而且面对快放坏掉的扫描仪也不闻不问。。。所以。。。不过Airasia那不变的红色真是让人向往丫。。(其实是向往它的机票价格。。。)

然后。。。
