Sinulog in Cebu Philippines
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008
I’m now here in Cebu Philippines and enjoyed an awesome time during their yearly Sinulog festival, the festival, parade, shows, and parties combined involve approx 1 million people crowding in the streets, watching the bands, etc etc, we of course are drinking our ice cold San Mig Lights hehe, having a blast! Then afterwards we hitup Pump nightclub til 6am. Great time, great fest as always!
Khon Kaen, Issan, Thailand trip
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007Chillin in Khon Kaen for a few days, my 1st time ever to get up to Northeast Thailand, so far so good. Staying at Kosa Hotel, it seems decent.
Going to the Tukcom Miss Motor Show competition tomorrow and the next day
Been partying, drinking our Singha Beer at this nice big nightclub called U Bar, but it sucks because U Bar closes at only 2am
I will post pictures of this trip soon
Heading Back to Bangkok
Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007Well, it’s been GREAT to see everyone, my family, my friends, my dogs, my niggaz and my bitches!!! Especially those that came back into town to be here in QC! Great to see you all, oh, and ESPECIALLY i met finally my newest nephew Levi while i was in Pensacola!
But, the time flew right by, time to head back to Bangkok, I have another life away from the QC, and to be honest, to choose QC or any other place to live i’d choose the NOT QC place, this place is trouble, great to be home, but i am happy to not be living here
just my 2cents
Hope to see everyone if i can make it back in December!!!
Heading back to the QC
Monday, July 9th, 2007TOMORROW!!!!!!!!
Short trip to Pattaya Thailand
Sunday, April 29th, 2007Headed on a small trip 2 hours taxi away from Bankok to Pattaya Beach, Thailand for the weekend, stayed in an awesome hotel, Sabai Resort on 2nd Road. Has wireless internet in the lobby so I could work, and is VERY near Pattaya Beach area, and was a very reasonable price.
But anyways, I took a small boat trip to the island Koh Larn, it has very clear beach water, and small little huts and restaurants there, nice to relax, but the real reason I wanted to go was for the jet skiing hehehehe. I had to get my fix, I think I’m becoming a pro at it now!!! So much fun!
Songkran Festival Thailand, Thai New Year
Saturday, April 14th, 2007Today I just participated in the Songkran Festival here in Bangkok Thailand and it was a freaking BLAST!!!!!!!
The pics sucked really bad, I took my camera, though it was very stupid of me, since you can NOT avoid getting 110% drenched by all the buckets of water, and powder mix stuff that gets smeared and drenched all over yourself.
Definately was a blast and I plan to go back to the festival tomorrow aswell
Club Pump party, Budyong Beach, Bantayan Island Philippines
Saturday, April 7th, 2007Club Pump had a really badass party during Holy Week at Budyong Beach Resort in Bantayan Island Philippines. It was on the beach, mostly only locals, filipinos attend. This was a badass party, with live bands, swimming, hot bikini girls contests (and guys contests too haha).
BUT!!! The downside that ruined the entire fun of it was that the little cottage rooms were fully booked, so we had to rent our tent, which was VERY hot, could NOT sleep it was so hot, and had to wait in line for the shower, or to use the toilet (toilets had no seats by the way). So that was semi disasterous!
Next year will be 100x’s better when we get ourselves little cottage on the beach with personal bathroom and showers.
But anyways…….
Visiting Ferdinand Magellan’s Cross in Lapu-Lapu City, Philippines
Wednesday, April 4th, 2007Nothing much to do so headed over to Ferdinand Magellan’s Cross here in Lapu-Lapu Cebu, Philippines. This marks the site where Magellan was reportedly killed.
Not too exciting but still, it’s something hehe, part of history.
Heading to the Philippines
Saturday, March 24th, 2007Tonight departing Bangkok -> Manila, Philippines! See you there!

Mmmmm silkworms are so delicious to eat!
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007Bangkok Thailand has a LOT of vendors at night selling various delicious items, from roti (from India), to crepes, banana pancakes, fruits, and also BUGS!!!! Ants, grasshoppers, cockroaches, fried frogs, and silkworms! I had to have a taste of the silkworm, they dont taste too disgusting, in fact, if I didnt see it before eating it I would’ve probably enjoyed them LOL
Hua Hin Thailand, to the Pa La-U waterfalls and Khanomcoke
Saturday, March 17th, 2007Hua Hin, Thailand is a pretty popular beach city here in Thailand with beautiful Hua Hin beach, I hung out here (yes, I’m currently still here hehe) for 3 days, at the beach, in the mountains and waterfalls of Pa La-U waterfalls, it was a great thing to see, it is becoming more and more littered with dirty human filth but still somehow remains a beautiful place (for now).
Pa La-U waterfalls is AWESOME!!! It’s about a 45 minute taxi from Hua Hin City, then pay 400 baht for a ticket, and hike about 30 minutes to the top of the main waterfalls (Level 5). Absolutely gorgeous!!!! The water is FREEZING cold though, but still worth it to get in and take a swim, and the big fish all come sucking on your leg, it tickles haha!
On the way back from Pa La-U I seen a ton of monkeys, and a WILD elephant!!! It came to the road, stopped and stared at the few cars that stopped to see him, then he stomped back off into the jungle. Was very neat to see, sucks though, somebody will probably kill him for his ivory within a week
Also later that night I tried a VERY delicious new Thai treat, called, Khanomcoke, it is some kind of egg/coconut looking mixture that is AWESOME, I love coconut so I fell in love with them right away.
Down south to Chumphon Thailand
Friday, March 16th, 2007I’ve been very interested lately in travelling to parts of Thailand that I’ve never been to before, so I headed south to Chumphon. I found the Chumphon area to be very quiet, and almost every Thai person stared at me and talked and pointed, watched me eat, watched me walk, watched me do nothing, and everything, it was pretty nice, I felt like a celebrity haha. Not many foreigners go down to that area is why, so I’m sure they all wonder, “what the hell is that farang doing here!???”
Anyways, it was nice to see some places, some untainted beaches, some untainted land, a LOT of places I seen were so beautiful, a westerner with lots of money will someday probably go there and build a resort and tear apart it’s beautiful beaches and jungles and islands.
Was a fun experience, I couldnt shit in the toilet for 3 days (the toilets were in the ground, squatter toilets ) LOL and I got to eat FRESH natural honey, right off the honeycomb thingy, it was delicious!
All in all I found Chumphon to be a nice place, but VERY VERY VERY difficult for a person from the west to adapt to, I definately will never stay there for more than 2-3 days hehe!
