Here's a story of me opening my piehole and nearly starting World War 3. Again.

So Virginie and I were talking by the laptops talking about music from France and the Philippines. So we got to talking about Mylene Farmer and this female singer with silver spikes for hair. It drifted to me showing Virginie and Alex playing my mp3 collection of Pinoy music in my laptop.

After listening to a few Virginie popped in "All I hear is blah blah" or something similar to that. Then I answered back "Hey I know a french song." Then I sing the French national anthem with all the words replaced with 'Blah' I laughed real hard after that. Virginie got mad I guess and called Benoit and they spoke in French in which I only understood Virginie imitated me singing their national anthem with Blah in place of the words.

Benoit looked at me with mixed anger and astonishment. Then looked straight at me eyes. In my head I went 'uh oh'. I said was sorry after that but I couldn't say it with a straight face. But all was lighthearted and in good fun. No real hate. I ain't a hater.

Thibaut with Yessica, Andrea (with the scarf) and Chaplaincy resident Jimmy Vincent took the camera and took a picture of himself in the darkening night. Groupshot. I can genuinely say this is the funniest moment of the night with everyone teasing and laughing and joking with each other. while evryone who had a camera took turns taking groupshots. Lizbeth and Beatriz teaching us dudes to dance especially Benoit. Dude can do a front flip but can't dance. Ahmed looking on. Zilbert and Vincent having a discussion about something over drinks and a card game. I intentionally took a shot of Zilbert's head shaking real hard. The dancing continuous. Lizbeth doing her best Gene Simmons impression. Big Mike having a look through my laptop at the pinoy mp3s. Alex and Virginie having a go at dancing. My hand was shaking cause I was sad Antje left the party early.

Thibaut Gelly's birthday. Theres no spelling error there. His name really has no 'L' there. This is one of my fondest memories in Edinburgh. Thibaut is my constant opponent in Squash and one of my best buds. I may have won only once against him shattering his perfect record against me but man did I mess with his mind when I won. I announced my retirement after finally beating him.

Everyone hangin' at the Chaplaincy while waiting for the food and drinks to get ready and arrive. Light conversation around My hand shaking so hard cause I'm crushing on Antje Schmelzer on the lower right of the picture From left to right: Thibaut's classmate (I forget the name), Richard, Oliver, Benoit, Yessica, Beatriz, Ahmed, Lizbeth and Zilbert Antoine and I in a camera quickdraw showdown. I like to remember that I won. Milk and vodka on the table, kids. It's not hard to imagine From left to right: Andreas, Antoine, Friend of Oliver from Russia (I forget the name)who, Antje, Michael, Beatirz, Benoit, Oliver. Foreground left to right: Zilbert, Lizbeth, ahmed, Yessica Birthday boy's the guy with the plate in his hand. Dude told me the pictures would turn out bad in the Chaplaincy's light and I didn't have my flash on. Look how it turned out Thibaut. It turned out good with very little help from Photoshop. From left to right: Thibaut, Thibaut's clasmate, Miriam, Cheeyong, Nicholas, Thibaut's classmate's girlfriend Same guys ridiculing me in amusement. Finally I'm in the picture. Thats me with 3 Germans and one Russian. From left to right: Richard, Me, Zilbert, Russian guy I forget, Andreas. Oliver was taking this picture I think. Ahhh! The french. These two girls were camera shy. Alexandra Faure on the left and Virginie Ponse on the right. Mike convinced them to hold still and smile for the camera. Dude in the Middle is Antoine. That shoulda been me. Oh well.

"Last August 11, 2006, Solar I, a tanker chartered by Petron to transport 2 million liters of oil sank somewhere in Guimaras Straight.

The resulting oil spill affected 200 kilometers of shoreline, damaging more than 1000 hectares of mangroves in the area, and damaging seaweed plantations, coral reefs, marine reserves and rich fishing grounds. The area is known to be home to the dugong and at least 2 of the 5 turtles found in the Philippines. This incident endangered the life and livelihood of over 10,000 people in the island.

Petron is legally and morally liable for the oil spill in Guimaras. Let us unite and demand that Petron answer this tragedy and be held accountable for the loss of natural resources and livelihood of the people of the island."

Any Filipino who has seen this petition and doesn't sign is a communist and should take a swim in the spill. Send me pictures to prove you did swim.

This set is during Karin Doerig's farewell party with just us. Her closest friends in Edinburgh. We are: Jason, Miriam, Sandra, Yang, Nicholas, Inga Match the names to the faces if you can. They're the first few people I've met since I first arrived back in 2002. After Karin cooked us dinner (I helped a little) then afterwards we played Uno. Later on She made me promise to cook her a good Filipino dinner. I still intend to do this. As soon as I find her. I'll cook for her.

Karin, to me, stood out cause she was the only girl I saw that wore these oversized shirts and sweaters and has a dudes haircut haircut she carries so well. Plus she's great to hang out with. She introduced me to these sweet Lind't chocolate. I especially like the thick matchstick looking ones with rum, or is it whiskey, in them. Those are heaven. One time after dinner at the Chaplaincy, I called her on her telling and enticing eyes (cause I swear she was hitting on me by winking as if to say "Hi handsome") and told her that we should get it on already. Out of the corner of my eye Miriam's, or it might have been Sandra's, jaw drops onto the table. I forget what Karin said to set things straight but she did.
