ATTENTION! ACHTUNG! After realising that we'd have to start paying to keep our blog at this site any longer, I began the painstaking process of moving EVERYTHING - pictures, text etc - over to a new website. There you can find all our latest posts and still read all the old ones too. I've even added more photos since it allows unlimited photo post... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=261478&go=jamcam Thu, 1 Feb 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=257242&go=jamcam By Cam _____________ I had a pretty hectic day today! The first slot in my schedule was a job interview with Logos, a Korean-run English school in the morning. It turns out they don't actually have any work at the moment and why they called me in for an interview I don't know. Anyway, the boss was away but his wife was running the show in his absence. She said there'd be some work around A... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=257242&go=jamcam Thu, 25 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=256062&go=jamcam By Cam ____________ Yesterday the water in certain villages was turned off due to roadworks. At least this time they had the good sense to put it in the newspapers before they did it. Often in Laos the water is turned off without anybody knowing. Of course it was only in the Lao language newspaper and expats such as our friend Ed were in the middle of showering - all soaped up - and then su... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=256062&go=jamcam Tue, 23 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=254885&go=jamcam by Cam____________________Today was spent almost entirely watching episodes of LOST. We'd only intended to watch one or two so as to savour the series, however we are well and truly hooked and have gone through two DVDs already! We went to our favourite Sin Daat (seared meat) restaraunt for dinner.... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=254885&go=jamcam Sun, 21 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=254362&go=jamcam By Cam__________This week felt extraordinarily long to both Jamie and I for some reason. It was also a week of small disappointments - Jamie wasn't selected as Tango's voice and I wasn't selected as English teacher at the U.S. Embassy. We weren't particularly phased about these things, though. The U.S. Embassy job paid surprisingly poorly considering it's a government job - I guess Bush must ha... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=254362&go=jamcam Sat, 20 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=253021&go=jamcam By Cam ______________ I've seen vegetarians mocked and jeered in many television shows - often portrayed as long-haired, good for nothing, treehugging do-gooders but I've never had anything against them... until now. Some claim that the eating of red meat increases aggressive behaviour in human beings, however today I'd believe that the opposite is true... a lack of meat makes people go compl... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=253021&go=jamcam Thu, 18 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=252478&go=jamcam By Cam ______________ After being pestered on several occasions by Tango, of the the major mobile phone and telecommunications companies in Laos, Jamie agreed to a voice recording trial. It seems that Tango are replacing their old recorded message service and are looking for a native speaker. They approached VIS, hoping to use the voice of a student, however the first person they came across... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=252478&go=jamcam Tue, 16 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=250948&go=jamcam By Cam _____________ Jamie and I started the day on Friday going to work together because I was substituting for Phillip, the P.E. teacher who was off to Vang Vieng to check out kayaking and other activities for a school trip. I managed just fine although I was a bit hazy on the rules of Volleyball. Basketball went quite well, as did indoor soccer but the last class had hardly any students p... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=250948&go=jamcam Fri, 12 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=250942&go=jamcam By Cam ________________ This evening Jamie's mum and Aunty Mai flew back to Australia. We were very sad to see them go. It was our sixth trip to the airport this month (we dropped off our friend Pat, we greeted Jamie's mum and Aunty Mai, we sent off Aunty Phung, we sent off Jamie's Mum's friend Ting, we greeted our friend Pat and now sending off Jamie's Mum and Aunty Mai) so we were fairly... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=250942&go=jamcam Thu, 11 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=250899&go=jamcam By Cam ____________ Recently we'd decided to step up operations with the school and start getting it completely ready to open, since we were of the belief that our troubles were over - Since Jamie's Mum came to town things really got moving and we had only one more signature to go before we were officially allowed to open. I compiled a list of Lao 'handymen' that I knew - people who coul... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=250899&go=jamcam Wed, 10 Jan 2007 12:00:00 GMT
