I'm going home

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

" Stare at the walls."
At least in Japan you will actually be able to punch them.
Happy to see that you are using your vast knowledge of the ins and outs of Asia by finally using one of the outs.
Don't forget to turn the lights off and lock the door when you leave.

Apparently we all do, when we aren't stuffing our faces with baw-baw or drinking crates of Crown beer before noon then staring at walls. 8-)
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I will be going to apply for a Japanese working holiday, there's seems to be a lot of non teaching jobs over there ATM.

Sorry but a week here in KL proved how dull and boring the existence in SEA can be, even with money I am confined to my A/C room because its too hot and stressful to go walk outside .

I made a lost of Things I did in SEA for CEO members too....

1.play on the phone / free WiFi 12 hours aday

2. Walk around in 35° celcius 98% humidity heat.

3. Eat the same bland street food for the 10000th time .

4 stare at a wall.

5. Drink beer.
I feel sorry for you & the miserable life you lead. Hopefully things will get better for you in the future

The temperature in Kuala Lumpur is nothing like that at the moment, it's a relatively mild 32°at most, and humidity is 59%. More utter bullshit from our resident imbecile.

That's pathetic. You'd be better off in your mom's basement.
I figured out itactually cheaper to live in oz compared to the money made, cost of living, once a week hooker and so forth and so forth.....

Oz


A dorm room is Approx. 80$ USD a week in OZ compared with about 40$ USD in KoW.

A can of baked beans with pork in OZ is 50c USD compared 1.95 USD in KoW

Ramon noodles is about equal.

Beer is 40USD a 30 pack in OZ whilst a 24 pack of FAKE Khmer beer is now 15$ (enjoy the hangover and the DTs)


But in Cambodia I make like 100USD for a 50 plus hour week ...

In OZ I will get easily 1000 USD a week for a 50+ hour a week job with half the work and lowering my IQ by dealing with halfwit khmers and brain damaged expats......
Easily make $1000 A week flying in and out of airports that don't exist. Eating baked beans at 50 cents a can.... kid, you are one fucked up, tripping, bullshit artist.... fuck off back to Armadale (or wherever your from) to your mum and dad's 4 bed/ 2 bath / double garage and bitch about immigrants with the rest of the cockhead bogans with whom you shall be working.!

Well I guess you do have to eat right, beans with mini pork sausages, in England that costs a little over a dollar but who actually eats that shit? Wow, did you ever leave st 172 buddy?
Man, if only it were as good as that. I bought a can of pork n beans when Iooking for something exotic and quick to eat one late night a couple of months ago, and there wasn't even any mini sausages in it! I felt well cheated. I'm guessing they add a dollop of lard to each tin. That's your pork, right there.
See crook!!!

Wishful thinking, I am afraid.

Unrelated, the local baw-baw guy sounds like a lost kid crying for his mother. I wish he didn't.
