Saturday the 13th 2010

Time flies so fast that we didn't realize that it's Fly's first anniversary already. Thinking about it, Fly has been a witnessed to so many unforgettable and crazy events. But yesterday's celebration was no exception.

"the man behind FLY"

After getting enough booze, the group headed to Riverhouse lounge where a female DJ controlled everyone's moves. Felt like I was in BKK coz of the techno music playing the whole time.


Come 2am, we headed to our usual after party eating place and had bobo (porridge). Then our friends suggested to get sugarcane in Takmeo sinces its Chinese New Year and its a sign of good luck. Me and Franco immediately agreed. Besides, there's nothing to do, right?

Arrived in the sugarcane place in 15 minutes and was surprised when we saw these...

We (Franco and me) thought we'll just drink sugarcane juice...but I guess not.

Noh bought two palms of sugarcane and we headed to the temple area to offer incense...and ask for blessings


Every once in a while, the gong is played which gives cue to the people outside to shake the sugarcane. (Felt like this was palm sunday). And here's Noh and Franco shaking it.

They say getting this done three times is enough. So what will happen after? We had to bring the sugarcane back to Phnom Penh. How? Don't ask but yes, it's here in PP.


Happy Chinese New Year!!
