I am actually quite addicted to this fella. It is called Betagen and it is a yogurt type drink that comes in a 6 back. I always grab the multi flavor pack. Because then it is a surprise which flavor I will get next, but I suspect that I will eventually figure out what color corresponds to what type of flavor. But, for now the surprise. i think the one I had this morning was strawberry. Yum. =) It has served as my breakfast for the past couple mornings, coupled along with a some bread and coconut yogurt. Coconut yogurt, best thing ever. It is so good. There are literally mountains of coconut bits in the yogurt. this makes the yogurt so good. Speaking of yogurt, I did pick up what I thought was Strawberry Banana yogurt, it turned out it was corn and red bean yogurt. =( I do not think that was my favorite at all, interesting, but not the greatest, actually not that good. I have been enjoying eating breakfast in my room because it not only saves money, but I am a little sick of going out to eat for EVERY SINGLE MEAL. No more. So breakfast at least eliminates one out of the three meals. ^-^
The past couple days has been a lot of work time for us to go over what we did last weekend in the provinces. We have a presentation to give this upcoming Friday, so I have been working on my part to collaborate a presentation with the other interns. But, since we have arrived here, it has been major work, super intense work, very emotional work that we have all encountered since the start of this internship. I took yesterday as a full relaxation day/personal responsibility day for myself. For myself, before I was going to get crazy. It was nice yesterday to just journal freely in my journal and just not think too much about work. I think this was a much needed break that myself, along with the other interns, needed as well. Everything so far has been an absolutely amazing experience that is only once in a lifetime. But, even so that, everyone needs a break and time for themselves, I believe. Yesterday was absolutely amazing.
Well to coupled all of this fun things, we decided to go out in Phnom Penh and go dancing. That was quite an experience and quite enjoyable to let out all of the frustration and stress through the art of dance. We arrived at the Saint Topez club, it sounds so classy, and it actually was a little classy. Super ritzy joint, everyone was wearing white. I came in with plaid shorts, some flip flops and a red shirt. That was classy, but as we arrived there and got off the Tuk Tuk. A familiar song was playing, a grand song, a pre-game song, "Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga. Rothany and I rushed in and we danced to Bad Romance like cat playing with cat nip. Absolutely wonderful. Two songs later, "Poker Face" came on. Ah, I think this night was meant to be. It was meant to be teaser before the real Lady Gaga in August at the Xcel with Tina. Well, the night continued at Saint Topez. I can only describe the dancing here with a few words, "awkward high school dance". It was that essentially and every time we went out to the dance floor, I think either people were laughing with us or at us. Either way, it was nice to just flow with the beat and dance. Well, the night went on and more dancing continued, "Jump up, Let's get crazy" song came on, a reminiscence of Beijing 09'. Some other fun tunes. I must not forgot that "Tik Tok" came on as well. Thank god. Well, we moved on to another club called Mr.M. Don't you love these names? We got there and the music/bass was so loud. The music was techno and as soon as we walked in, we walked right back out. It was just that awful and there was no one there. So, we again moved to the final club of the night, "Heart of Darkness". A shady club if I have to say so myself. Rumor has it that a lot of shady things happen here. But, none the less, the music was decent and there were a ton of people inside. We got in and it was super dark, a ton of people and a ton of dancing. Oh and did I mention, no cover charge at any of these places? So nice. But, we got to the dance floor, the music was okay. We were about to leave and finally trek back home until "Calabria" came on. Once that beat ran through our ears, it was like the a surge of energy into our bodies. Once again, dancing resumed. Well, after that song, we decided to head back home. We took Tuk Tuk back. Had a little disagreement about the price with the Tuk Tuk driver because he was trying to rip us off. So we took another. Got home and I fell asleep.
I think that dancing is the cure to a stressful anything. =)
