APAD 367 (002): Eyes wide open
There’s a boy waiting to cross the road.
Driving in Phnom Penh requires all your five senses and ESP. You’ll never predict what’s going to happen. Other vehicles come at you in all directions possible and pedestrians just jump right in front of you.
This boy crossed the road only a few metres away from an oncoming Land Cruiser. Luckily, the driver managed to step on the break just in the nick of time. From where I stood I saw the driver, an expat, raised his hands in exasperation. Ahhh, the what ifs.
One must have the steel of nerves to drive in this country.

APAD 366 (001): Where in the world is Chuck Norris?
Is anyone familiar with this funny search trick for Chuck Norris on Google? This is a trick I’ve known for a while and it has been in circulation for a long time already. No one? Okay, well, allow me… Follow this instructions.
In your computer, open your favorite web browser and then go to Google Search homepage. In the Google search bar, type “find Chuck Norris” into then press “I’m Feeling Lucky” button. Now, let’s see what search result do you get?
Did you get this?
Cool trick, eh?
Now, if you’re still looking for Chuck Norris there’s no need to go through lengths of searching on the Internet.
Chuck Norris Dimsum House — he is, after all, right here in Phnom Penh!
Wow, Chuck Norris in Phnom Penh? Chopping meats and veggies and what-have-yous for dimsum dishes instead of karate chops and roundhouse kicks.
I’ve never been there yet so I cannot confirm his presence nor the food offerings at Chuck Norris Dimsum House, lol. What I did see while passing by was a black and white wall painting of good, ole Chuck in full battle gear inside the dimsum house. Now I don’t want that machine gun pointed at me if I eat there, do you? Unsettling, lol.
I’m so tempted to share with you a Chuck Norris joke (there are lots on the Internet!) I heard from an American colleague so here it is:
There used to be a street named after Chuck Norris, but it was changed because nobody crosses Chuck Norris and lives.
Lol. I hope you’ll have a nice weekend.
By the way, I just finished my project 365! Woohoo! It took a whole lot longer because I didn’t post on Saturdays and Sundays (my rest days) and there are weeks where I don’t post every day. Nevertheless I am very happy to have finished one cycle. Today is the beginning of the next. Instead of APAD 366, this will be APAD 001 Cycle 2 🙂

Statues of Khmer heroes Techo Meas and Techo Yot; they were made from copper.

APAD 363: Vanilla ice, ice cream
My husband and I were out running errands last Saturday. It was hot, as usual, so we bought a tub of ice cream on the way home.
You can’t go wrong with ice cream on a hot day.
I’m a chocolate person so you’d expect I’d get one but my husband likes vanilla, especially with this ice cream brand. The solution? We bought the vanilla ice cream and a chocolate syrup to satiate my chocolate craving. Compromise. It’s a win-win situation for us both.
A Silver Finish!
