Thanx for all the messages - keep them coming and don't forget to email me too - its always nice to hear your news!!! http://www.getjealous.com/sezzie http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=219649&go=sezzie This is gonna be my last entry in The Adventures of Sezzie T not because I plan to cease having adventures, but no doubt they will be smaller in scale and less frequent. I dont think descriptions of the daily commute, 7 hours in front of a computer and drinks in the local will ever be able to compete with sitting in the back of an open bed pickup, digging holes, mixing concrete, drinking monste... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=219649&go=sezzie Fri, 8 Sep 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=252067&go=sezzie To say its strange to be home after almost a year would definitely be an understatement. For the last week Ive been wandering around the house a bit like a lost soul, not quite knowing what to do with myself and not really being able to commit to doing any of the many things I intended to do once I got back. I guess its because at the moment I dont have any plans; no idea where Im gonna live, ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=252067&go=sezzie Fri, 1 Sep 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=191197&go=sezzie Leaving Khao Lak and all my friends was incredibly hard, although I did have a good send off Piafoot stylee, and being in Australia for the first few days just felt so very strange. Driving back from the airport it was bizarre to look out and see so many cars on the roads, no songthaews, trucks or motorbikes. I couldnt quite get used to wearing socks and trainers again or brushing my teeth with t... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=191197&go=sezzie Mon, 31 Jul 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=180713&go=sezzie That was how long I said I would stay in Khao Lak after my trip to Vietnam. Yeah right who was I trying to kid! Weve already established that Khao Lak is a black hole, you arrive for 2 weeks and then cant leave! Everyday you hear someone saying shit I need to change my flights again! And this time that person was me! Firstly it was a trip to Koh Phangan which pushed back the leaving date, the... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=180713&go=sezzie Sat, 17 Jun 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=164341&go=sezzie So after Nha Trang I jumped back on the bus and travelled on a windy road up through the mountains to Dalat, the premier honeymoon destination in Vietnam and due to the temperate climate where a hell of a lot of fruit, vegetables and flowers are grown. The drive up there was beautiful with views across vast green valleys and thankfully the weather was kinder to me than in Sapa. Dalat itself is a f... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=164341&go=sezzie Tue, 6 Jun 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=159730&go=sezzie As always Id heard a lot of things about Vietnam before I got here, some good but mostly it revolved around, hassle, being ripped off and people being glad to leave just for the sheer relief of not having to be suspicious of everyone who is friendly to you. Now as Ive said before I cope quite well with the 27 million times you get asked to buy stuff or whether you want a cyclo. You just have to ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=159730&go=sezzie Sat, 27 May 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=155161&go=sezzie I know not a very original title but I couldnt think of anything more witty Im afraid so that will just have to do!!!! So Im about to leave Hanoi after being here on and off for just over a week and if I had to describe it one word it would be noisy, very very noisy, ok thats four but one really isnt enough! The noise of horns beeping and motorbikes revving is constant. It seems that its ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=155161&go=sezzie Wed, 17 May 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=152494&go=sezzie Khao Lak is the kind of place that, if you havent realized by now, sucks you in. Im not the only one who intended to stay for just 2 weeks and then just hasnt been able to leave. Khao Lak, after only a short time, feels like home and the people there quickly become part of a big family. I mean we spend pretty much 24/7 with each other so you can understand why. But unfortunately for everyone it... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=152494&go=sezzie Mon, 1 May 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=148473&go=sezzie So the one beer on a Sunday night turned into many many more in honour of Breda & Marks leaving do and a drunken Sarah staggered home at about 3am. But although I felt somewhat rough I was still up to catch the bus to work at 8.30am. Thats the great thing about working on a building site you sweat your hangover out in no time!!! And I tell you its just as well because theres always an excuse f... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=148473&go=sezzie Fri, 17 Mar 2006 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=145025&go=sezzie I know, I know Ive been crap! I havent posted since February and I know you are all dieing to know what Ive been up to, how the houses are getting on and how many accidents Ive had in the last 2 months. But hey its not like Ive been lazing on some tropical beach (well there has been some of that). Most of the time like a lot of you Im working the old 9 to 5 well OK 8.30 to 4ish. But unlike ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=145025&go=sezzie Mon, 6 Mar 2006 12:00:00 GMT
