Having another nice chilled out weekend here, doing the usual trip into the city centre, this time potentially book buying. I have had the intention of buying some Ian Fleming books for a while now, I think its time to get some, and possibly a book on tagalog.

Which reminds me, saw yet another amazing travel website that people might want to see, was created by a guy working for the US peace corps out in asia, very nicely done. This is an example of a pic from the site: -

He has captured alot of daily life pictures too which I found really interesting. Hope they don’t mind me borrowing that pic! hehe.

Not alot has been going on for me since my last post, other than a serious amount to do at work, which has kept me extremely busy.

Though I went to see the movie, Munich the other night. It’s well worth a watch if you dont mind rather graphic violence, which I usually try to avoid myself. Though because I am really into spying agencies etc, it was great to see a film about the Mossad for once. I thought it was quite unbiased to either side, initially I felt that the Mossad were right to hunt down the terrorists, then I began to realise that in doing so they were as bad if not worse than the original terrorists and had infact increased the problem.

Other than that can’t wait for the weekend ! And was glad to receive the travel books from Dilek, thank you :-)

Still intending to add more content to this site and do cool things with it, but ultimately either too lazy or tired to do it hehe.

Still on for my Thailand holiday in May though ! :D can’t wait.
