I’m finally going overseas.
As the title suggests, I’m going to nam.
Tiger cages, choppers, machine guns and beggars.
Monkeys, monks, bunkers and rice paddys.
I’ve not been overseas before its all fairly overwhelming.I find a good package price, airfare, hotel, taxes ect.
I call them with a few pricing questions. – They never call me back.
I call a week later and try to book.
I call at 09:00, bleh bleh we’ll call you back – No call.
I call at 10:30, bleh bleh we’ll call you back – No call.
ect ect…
It took 6 hours to buy tickets.
Turns out they don’t do visas.
I find out after I pay. – Great.
So I research and find out how visas work.
They want money, a form, photos, and your original passport. – min 5 days.
So I do that.
I already had photos from my visa application, so the whole thing only cost me
$85.
I hope I get it back, I hope I get it back in time.

The next consideration is injections which I hate.
Probably better than risking death, still debating that one though.
Edit: I really don’t like the doctor thing. Hell I didn’t even get a tetanus shot at primary school….I just sort of wandered off and waited until the doctor went away.
Recommended shots:
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
Typhoid
Tetanus, Diphtheria
Measles, Mumps, Rubella
Rabies
Japanese Encephalitis
Chickenpox
DENGUE FEVER
MALARIA
Aw fuck.

For some reason (possible sleepiness or lack of coffee) I was talked into trying the new Hungry Jacks Chicken Wrap. Suffice to say I was very angry after it was consumed.Why the new Hungry Jacks Chicken Wrap tastes like shit.
By Mr Ping.
1. The wrap (bread, dough, whatever it is) is five times larger than it needed to be. Imagine a number eight (if you cant it looks like this “8″), from a top down perspective one loop was full of filling, the other was excess wrap coiled up.
2. The lettuce. It had not been refrigerated for at least three days before it was used for the filling, clearly purchased in bulk, and delivered in bulk.
3. The chicken. It consisted of a bite size portion somewhere near the top of the wrap, and a measly morsel (obviously floor scraps) at the end. No trace of chicken for the 7 bites between these two pieces of chicken.
4. The other ingredients. We are assuming it is some sort of powdered battery acid that gives the spicy flavour, as there were no other visible components to the wrap. Just lettuce and the rare piece of chicken. Oh, there was that sliver of onion, must have been dropped into the 3 day old lettuce bin by a trainee who assumed the lettuce bin was the trash.
5. The sauce. Flavorless, just water with coloring.
6. The packaging. Well it had a Hungry Jacks logo on it, and it did manage to catch the five tonnes of lettuce that overflowed from the product. Clearly the best part of the whole deal here.
The end.
