Google Dictionary fail

I forgot I had this extension installed and double-clicked a word out boredom. I think that this definition needs to be updated somewhat!

2013: Current year

2013 is apparently the current year

3 years out-of-date… still better than some supported software I have had to use!

Romantic boat ride

Tonight it was the moon festival, in which all shops turned off their lights and lit fires outside next to an alter.

On the river,people were floating candles in little paper boats.

We got ourselves a boat ride along the river. We thought it would be a lovely thing to experience seeing how we are not here forever.

That would have been been case of it was not for this annoying little bugger that was on the boat with us. He was the son of the guy rowing the boat. He would booty shut the … up! He had his own candle that I was very nervous to be around because he was waving around like a fan and splattering wax all over the place.

And he was a scratcher! I actually shouted at him to stop and expected his father to shout at me, but this kid is clearly a little git and it’s shouted at by every tourist on his boat.

After all that, he docks the boat, I nearly fall in the water, he tries to get more money off us. Then we ran away.

10/10 for the romanticism…

Went for dinner. Came home. Tried to watch Netlix. Zonked out!

Need a new pair again

The frame was so hot that the bloody lens popped out when I picked them up! It’s in  smithereens now…

A pair of glasses with one lens

Yet another pair needed!

Let’s see if I can make it a hat trick…

We are a rarity

“First impressions of Hoi An?” – Laura

“Very small amount of white people” – Me

Context: Today marks the second third day of a stranger of Asian decent taking a picture of us without us being asked first. We are a sight to behold in this part of the world.

We are a spectacle

It is a nice feeling and an angry one. Are we really that photo-worthy? I don’t go round taking pictures of every race I see, like some sort of xenophile scrapbook. Only to parade the photos on a timeline that I have no control over.

Next time it happens, I’ll put on my best angry face. That’ll show ’em!

This Toblerone

This… this isn’t right…

Cambodian Toblerone

Cambodian chocolate leaves a lot to be desired…still had to eat 3 bits to make sure, though!

Angry Birds Shmangry Birds…

The kid sitting opposite me does not know what he is missing…

Pong!

Pffft!

Bloody Springsteen
