pots you havent even been here how can you say you know which chicks you like better? i was told how much better thai chicks were than phils chicks, i couldnt disagree more, and like cambo more as well

said it a few times in this thread, but i could struggle to get by on 400 a month, comfortably get by on 500, be happy spending 800 a month, and be wasting money on anything over 1k a month

there is a pretty nice (not thailand balla nice, but more than nice enough) apt i was at the other day for 150 a month, ud need to rent a motorbike so add another 50 (or just buy one), pay for your own internet plus electric, plus visas...... thats like 250 roughly, add another 200 for food so 450 and thats basically it for essentials, and you can do food cheaper if u want (editing cuz i just noticed u said serviced, u could probably get a maid for like $2 a day)

1500 is way more than you will need

ayke i didnt hear anything about a girl dying, but i dont go out much, hope its not someone i knew

can confirm EZ's story and its funny as the ID she gave us is of a friend of hers who is another dolphin regular that EZ knew and i recognize everytime i go down there now, and the girl was like 20 feet from us at the time

that is the story i mentioned when he was here but said i couldnt tell cuz i didnt wanna steal it from him, i saw her the next day and no black eyes or bruises on face (and asked where EZ was cuz she is in love)

wabby pointed this out earlier but girls here say they are actually a year older than they are, everyone here considers themselves to be born 1 year old not zero, hotel girls birthday is in a few days, she has told me all along she is 20, she was born in 1993..... so she is really 18, they add an extra year, and then she rounds up cuz she is almost that old...... always check id's is a very good idea



before i mentioned i had a lizard in my room, but i changed rooms (same hotel) and then got another one in here, this time a tiny lil baby, i tried to catch him a couple of times to set him free but he always ran under or behind something

yesterday i lift up a shirt off my bed and there he is, i get a tuppaware container and trap him in it and then set him free, doubt he was finding any food in here and was prolly gonna die, or i woulda stepped on him cuz he wasnt as savvy as the older ones and would just walk around while i was up and moving


headaches came back the last few days even though i havent eaten any bananas in 2.5 weeks, they have all been very small ones though and never progressed to anything to bad, whereas when i am banana'ing they can get pretty bad, still sucks even having a small one though obv

but when a girl comes over the second her close come off the headache goes away, this is 3 for 3 so far on headaches that were like maybe 4 out of 10 in pain

thats a lot better medicine than an advil imo, has worked every time and a tad more enjoyable

gonna try some bananas again next week and see what happens

calling shack girl after games are over, will find out if she was just trying to run off with the $80 ($15 rip off) or not at that point

You should let the lizards be, they eat mosquitoes, cockroaches and other bugs and won't hurt you.

If you just work max 10 hrs a week, why would you not find a side job and live without troubles. 2k in shihanoukville is like 4k in phuket i guess, but it takes a certain kind of person to live in sihanoukville.The one for who can live without city comforts and takes girls two notches down.

i let the big one be, but not the baby as he was to active when i was up and i woulda ended up stepping on him i think


surprisingly i havent seen a cockroach out here, and very few bugs in my room at all (but i never have windows open and barricade the area at bottom of the door to keep ants/roaches out, and rats, ya mostly i started doing that after the rat ran in my room)

i was expecting to not be able keep food in my room at all because of bugs, really not an issue


shack girl on her way over, way to early i told her i was "working" she just wants to watch some TV till later

so she didnt disappear with my $80 (or $15) at least

the sound quality on asian tv shows.... i never realized they did voice overs on their own shows and movies, but they do and it is awful

every girl sounds like a screaming 6 year old

the guys arent quite as annoying, but they still sound horrible

she is totally crazy fwiw, she came over to watch tv for a bit, i was playing online, she says she is gonna go and will come back later, so she comes back, i ask her what she did, she says she was writing

hmmmm, ok

she lays on bed and is doing something on her phone, i lay down and watch, she is putting messages on her phone....... but in sort of a microsoft paint sort of way, 1 letter at a time (hard to explain dont know the program) changing the colors of each letter and word

one is to her mom, i dont read that one

another is to some guy that she thought was gonna marry her like 2 years ago (i posted her emails to him from 2010 like 15 pages or so ago in this thread, cant believe she is still thinking about him) this is what the message said, but im not gonna do the fancy colors:


J I M

o y h t r
n o a o e
l u p i
y p m d
y e


hmm so for whatever reason when i submit the post it totally messes that up so ill re-explain

column 1 said only
column 2 said you
column 3 said happy
column 4 said to me
column 5 said reid



if you remember the emails at all ya thats how she talks, i dont know what the last word "reid" is supposed to be so i ask and she says die (not sure how die starts with an r) so i tell her how to spell it and ask what she means and she says she wants him die

not that shes gonna kill him, just that she hopes he dies (psychooooooooo)



later i tried to explain how wearing low cut tops could help her out in a way she would understand so i said:

"when you young you were good girl so moon good to you and gave you these (poke in boob) and you should use them to your advantage now"


running like ish online past few days, think im actually gonna take a break (basically never take days off), probably go play small cash game at charlie harpers tomorrow then monday hotel girls birthday so gonna go to her bday party

She is 20 tough but no hotel wants to burn their hands. Damn, will be long night looking for dodgy hotels who do let us in.

Will be in Naga tonight playing, no drinking for me. My flight is tuesday and i have a half of bottle of vodka for Casa club. If you see me at naga its yours(i wear a dress shirt and am accompanied by a too young looking girl)
Stupid thing to do, buying any "white powder" in Cambodia. You could end up dead from it. Be smarter next time. You are lucky.

Exactly. Read the quoted text immediately above, twice, Ayke.

I piss away money in Sihanoukville. I go through about $2,000 per month. You could live here quite well on that, in my opinion. If I didn't drink, I would probably spend under $1,000 per month.

I would live in Thailand myself, if they wanted foreigners (farang) there. But, they really do not. The visa situation is proof of that.

so deadmans u spend $1k a month on alcohol in a place where they hand out free drinks like candy on halloween, beers can be had for .50 or less at restaurants and you can get anything really cheap at the market?


ez u even went to play at charlie harpers and were at the table with nero and didnt ask where the hammers are......... FAIL

(hammer joke will never get old, if i dont die over here i may be bringing this up 10 years from now)

ez tells me to use piratebay like 3 days ago, now the dude gets arrested.... in cambodia...... my life is filled with these strange coincidences


so i hooked the girl who i said would make a good arranged marriage partner up with a very nice and helpful guy who has answered my endless questions on the snooky forum, she was low on cash (understatement of the year) and my deal with shack girl held me back from being able to support her since she is to shy to approach random guys

he is the guy whose apt i went to the other day to get shack girls pics uploaded, he had a girlfriend for a lil bit and then a few weeks ago he is with her at a bar, leaves here there for like 5 minutes to go either to store next door or in the back to talk to someone, he comes back and she is gone and he never sees her again, she left her stuff at his place and never came back to get it

really weird, he has no clue what happened, my guess is he said something like "these fries are tasty" and she took it to mean that he wanted to bang the lady who made the fries and got jealous and then upset and ran off.... but who knows

hope it works out for them though hes a nice guy and she is a very sweet girl (who is quite good at pool which EZ can attest to, if he wasnt so drunk he cant remember, or just blocked the memory from his mind more likely)

saw on another forum that at the Koh Kong - Had Lek border crossing that there are cops on the thai side that are doing random piss tests and that if you fail you will either go to jail or be forced to pay a roughly 10k baht fine

seems crazy that they could do this, just passin on what i heard

get text from shack girl earlier:

"if i give mamasan $50 me no hav work for her no more"

i reply "ok well you give her in a few weeks"

she reply: "i not understand" (sigh just call me if you cant have a texting convo)

i call and say ok well your off from mamasan for another few weeks so you can pay her before you go back she says no she needs to do today i say sorry im not giving you any more money until the month is over or at least till it gets closer she says "up to you" and hangs up

30 minutes later: "mamasan acting very crazy now she say no dinner for me"

hmmm, she has told me she gets her crappy room that she lives in from mamasan, not buyin the no food part at all so i call back and say sorry but ive given you to much to early and im not gonna give anymore she says "up to you" and hangs up


she texts me few hours later: "i wanna go work at ba" (ba is short for bar i think) i call she gets mad when i say no to money again i say why dont you come over later so we can talk (cuz phone convos go nowhere) she says why i come you no pay me and hangs up.......... i text her saying you are the one who asked to do the month for $200 not me so dont be mad at me youve already asked for to much to early

she replies: "i not understand"

so shes coming over now, should be a really fun chat im sure


went to birthday party for cute hotel chick, talked to other guy whose staying here (ez can guess which) and said we should pay (pretty obv we were gonna anyways) and wanted to actually take them to a nicer place but they had their own spot in mind, we go get lots of food, drinks, all the time thinking hmm how much is this bill gonna add up to, we got like 2 chickens, shrimp, lobsters (weird lobsters though not real lobsters) some curry stuff, other seafood, lots of stuff, couple pitchers of beer, sodas, shakes...... total bill $27

sweet, divided by 2 not hurt at all

so when i asked this girl what she likes to do for fun the only thing she came up with was sing, so ask if she wants to go to karaoke and she loves the idea, they say they know of a cheap karaoke place like $5 for an hour to get a room, we get in and they bring in 12 beers and say $25 for the beers, thats like quadruple the real amount of beers here but whatever i dont mind spending some money to give this girl one good birthday party in her life, she really is a great girl

i guess if you dont drink all the beers you dont have to pay for them, the 2 "hostess's" that are in the room with us top off each glass right after anyone drinks it no matter how lil was drunk

could not have been a worse/more boring hour+ for me as they sat around singing cambodian love songs, i had a headache the volume was extremely loud..... ugh it was awful, on a side note they have a cambodian version of that usher song tonight.... weird

so we get the bill, $46

they told us $25 for the beers, they actually charged $36, plus $9 for the room, and a dollar for a water

so we complain they say its $25 for the beers if cambodians pay but $36 if white poeple pay, so we give the girls the money, i give a 20 the other guy says he only has 10 left and will pay me back 5, so they go to pay and still get charged the higher price

one of the girls who has a older white boyfriend paid the rest, feel kinda bad for her, but shes not hurting for money like the rest out here she has like $300 cell phone, motorbike, other $100 cell phones she doesnt use

long story short, dont go to karaoke

but at least the girl had fun

Dude why don't you just give shack girl the $50 and make her your gf? Make that bitch wash your clothes and stuff. That should plug the paying for sex leak. If she bounces with your 50 then f it.

ya spe... mixgameaddict they totally did, i could tell once they started insta-topping off every beer, didnt wanna make a scene and kill the mood so just told one of the other girls to let them know that we dont want anything else and would be leaving once those beers were gone

i thought we were just gonna pay the local price and the girls said they would go to cashier and us not to.... then they went ahead and paid the full price anways, not sure what happened there, hope the girl has some $$$ like i think she does, but either way not really on me as the other guy was the one who only paid $10

either way, no worries about this happening again as that was about as boring of a time as ive ever had (outside of live poker or a job)


sofocused, A) i dont want a gf, and B) at some point i need to tell this girl no so she knows she cant just run over me, as potslammer pointed out couple days ago giving her the $80 set a bad precedent, and its not surprising she is coming back asking for more, though i am kinda surprised its this soon


soooo........ she comes over, im already not really believing her, why did she owe the mamasan $200 but now all she has to do is give her $50 and everythings cool? that doesnt add up, and her saying she wouldnt be back with mamasan till end of september yet now all of a sudden if i dont give her this money she is back with her tomorrow and mamasan wouldnt give her dinner earlier???? she just knows that i want to get her away from mamasan so is pressing the right buttons to try and get me to pay up


i make what i think is way to generous of an offer and say we can call off the month thing for now since we are close to even (she is actually slightly ahead but no biggie, although i wouldnt have went with her 5 of the last 6 nights so she would have got more action by doing this) and that i can give her our usual $25 for tonight and then she come over tomorrow for $25, that would give her the $50, she then gives to mamasan and then we start up the month thing

she doesnt understand, i explain it 7 times, she eventually just says sure ok but i can tell she is upset with me for not just handing her $50 today like she hoped

i also ask why she doesnt just go to dolphin the next few days get a customer or three and make the money and she says she cant cuz she still owes mamasan

so apparantly mamasan wont take half of what i give her for the month, but still takes half if she gets from other guys

things dont add up

so its awkward, we do round 1, after she immediately asks we do once or twice and i say well twice since im paying 25 (though i dont even really want/need twice tonight, need a break and was gonna take one tonight if not for her drama)

so i come out of shower and she says we just do once and i give her 18... im like well ill give ya 15 if ya want, but you arent gonna have 50 for mamasan tomorrow and she says thats ok no problem


wtf???????? she has been texting me all day acting like if she doesnt have $50 for mamasan her world will be over, and now she is saying "no problem"

obv things arent adding up at this point, i say all i have is a 20 you got a 5 she says no, i say ok we go get change she says she will wait, at this point no way im leaving her in my room unattended, i have once before (last night cuz she was asleep) and she didnt steal anything, but not tonight in the middle of this

so she goes out ahead of me and walks away, i say wait come back, tell her that if she doesnt care about getting the 50 anymore then we just do the same month deal we had before because theres no reason not to, again shes confused, i explain a few times, eventually she understands and says ok, can tell she is upset, but had been acting like that all day

really dont wanna burn bridge with this girl, told her that she can have have 2 days off and ill give her a call on thursday, she will likely either text me asking for more money in those 2 days or ask if she can come over and sleep

wish she never woulda brought the 200 for a month thing up, been nothing but trouble and she keeps trying to take advantage of it


o ya and once again headache instantly goes away when bra comes off

headaches were what caused me to have such a dont give a F attitude when coming over here, and now i can make them go away at any point for $20, and have a pretty decent time after it goes away as well

seriously a life changing thing

she texted me saying "i love you so much my love"

i reply "what"

she "sorry. i was smsing a friend and sent to you"



she is cold and calculating, i dont think it was a mistake, obv not saying she meant to tell me she loves me, but there was some (crazy) method behind her madness



just talking to the grandma for the first time since ive been over here, get cut off (had already talked for awhile, still sucks i cant call back and explain the situation)


when try to call now i get some weird message in cambodian, 99% sure im finally out of minutes, i put either $2 or $5 worth of minutes on this phone plus what you get from the sim card maybe 35 days ago, for that amount of money ive got:

83 sent texts
134 received texts

2 hours 12 minutes received calls
1 hour 54 minutes of dialed calls (maybe 30ish minutes of which have been long distance)


thats some pretty damn good value for either my $2 or $5

fwiw in america on my prepaid cell that i was ubernitty with that would have cost me (not even counting long distance) close to $50

pre black friday $50 on the prepaid lasted me like 4-5 months (obv had a sick life)

post black friday $50 on the prepaid lasted me maybe 2-3 months

i use that much talk time in my first 35 days over here

seems crazy
