Sao Lao

I have to admit that when it comes to love song, I am more into sad songs. Maybe it’s because I don’t know much about love and coming from a broken family, I don’t believe in a fairly tale love story. Perhaps I like sufferings and sad songs are my tunes. If I have to pick one love song to respond to Amphone’s post I would pick Jom Jai Khon Jon. It is a Lao song that I found out it was written for my Mama. Someone loved her so much to have written this song for her and she was the one and only Jom Jai Khon Jon for that particular man. Mama was this definition of “Jom Jai Khon Jon. ” Maybe someday there will be a man that would think I am his Jom Jai.

She was his Jom Jai

After waiting for two weeks for a package from my aunt in Vientiane, the mailman finally made the delivery yesterday afternoon. I was very happy to see what I’ve asked for: a Laotian Fondue, toasted sticky rice and a CD of photos from the Boat Racing Festival in Vientiane. I was a bit disappointed that I didn’t get my Sao Lao magazine as requested. My aunt misunderstood me and thought I wanted Update Magazine with the coverage of Miss Apone Beauty Pageant 2007 winner.

This coming weekend would be a good time for me to try out the Laotian Fondue with Johan for Thanksgiving dinner. I’m going to get a few bottles of Beer Lao and have a big party. You’re all invited.

February, a Thai movie released in 2003.

In late September my cousin Mo decided to build him a fish pool so he can raise a few hundred fishes for food. Raising fishes is as typical as having a garden so people can cut down on grocery bills. Since my other aunt who is living next door has raised some fishes before and has started a new group of fishes in her concrete pool, Mo thought it would be a good idea to get a hands on learning experience.

When I asked him about his fish pond a few days ago, Mo told me he didn’t pass the water test and would have to seal the walls better so water won’t leak out. He just started his accounting study at the university in Pakse last weekend so I am not sure if he will have the time to take care of his fishes. Mo said that it’s not so difficult since you can feed the fishes and clean the pool on schedule. I told him to put some phak thob in the pool so the fishes can feel more like home before they will be served at the dinner table.
