4th April

Today was a really really long day for all of us.

we woke up at o430 in the morning. we left the hotel at 530 cos some people overslept. and we headed off to angkor wat to catch the sunrise! it was beautiful. and alot of pictures were snapped and some of us started to cam whoring with the sun. HAHAHAHA.. then we continued taking random photos around and then we headed back to bousavy guesthouse.

after our breakfast, we started preparing for the coming week's lesson. after spending 3 days at the orphanage, we were more clear of their english standard and could thus use more effective teaching techniques, to the best benefits of the children. we spilt up into smaller groups like english department one group, sports department one group and hygiene department one group and they came up with lesson plans for the next three days of teaching. after that, we presented to each other what we were going to do. after that, we started our planning for our party! food was one big headache. programme was a challenge. all i can say now is that its gonna turn out good! :D

by the end of it all, it was still kinda early, like about 3pm. so we headed down to angkor wat for history lessons since we still had our admission ticket.Jay was not allowed to join the group for the Angkor wat tour since he has hurt his sprain; he could not take the risks of climbing up and down and walking a 'NON- WALKABLE' distance under blazing hot sun.
His guardian angel,Clara was with him throughout this time Owen was with them to wait for the group. After they 3 had separated from the team,they came across a roadside stall selling oil-painting. Clara and jay both bought a few paintings from him. The local guy was exhilirated, he was smiling from ear to ear and treated us cold drinks.
We continued our touring and paused at the North entrance of Angkor wat and we were officially LOST! However, the locals were very keen to help us when we approached them for help. When we were wandering around in the North entrance, we met the Oil paint seller again, this time was different he was with his family(wife and his son.) Then, we begun our camwhoring with his family. YES again!Cam-whoring.
After camwhoring, we went to rest under the shade while waiting for the rest. Owen went to look out for the rest and at the same time.he had his sun tanning session.

Finally , when the rest were back we went to have our lunch, then continued our visits to several temples. Seriously! Angkor wat will attract more tourists if it is air conditioner HAHAHAAH! Most of us were sun-baked. The higher the anticipation, the bigger our disappointment will be. The sunset, that everyone was eagering to see since sun rise to our dismay the weather did not PERMIT! it's reallly Oh MY GOD!!!!!!!Obh my gosh!!!!! Having said that, owen is the sole person in the team who has caught sunset in Angkor wat before LOL!HAHAAHAH! Dont be jealous! come back and be volunteer again!

Then we went to have our dinner......
