Khmer New Year Brought a Long Lost Daughter Back

After 17 years I finally saw my daugther for the first time. We were at the park to celebrate Khmer new year this morning and met her there by accident. Fortunate enough, she unknowingly approached to where we were standing. Immediately, my relatives were the first one to recognize her and her grandma. I was in shock and so surprise after my sister (cousine) called my mom and started to introduce the little girl. Then my daughter turned to me, I couldn't utter a word. While my mom and some relatives were hugging and holding her, I played it cool. I waited until the dust settled then approached my daughter. We silently introduced ourselves. From the look on her face, I could tell that she was extremely nervous and excited at the same time as I too was overjoyed and almost let my emotion stands in the way. She is a very pretty girl and very Khmer, no doubt about that. Oh what a joyful day for all of us! I never thought that I will be able to know or even see her again. I remembered, the first time that I saw her when she was a tiny baby. Now at 17 years old, she grown up to be a beautiful lady. She is tall and has that cute lips like her daddy..hehehehehe. What a surprise!!!
Here is my baby girl picture...

New Year Pictures

These pictures were taken during my trip to Wat Thai temple on April 15, 2007. The place was packed with mixed crowd from various backgrounds. People coming to the temple for foods and entertainment. I and my family had a blast! We ate some wonderful tasty foods and generally enjoyed the scene. We are looking forward for the next year. Happy new year everyone.

The Thai's letter says Wat Thai Of Los Angeles..hehehheeh..hahahahaah

Look at those Thai ladies, aren't they cute? However, one thing for sure that I don't like about the girls are their custom uniforms. It me it seems flat and lame and not as cute as our Cambodian's tradition custom dresses.

She is the cutest one of all the girls. I think she is a hybride crossed between Asian and White European.

Pick one. which one is this lady do you think is the one you would date?

Yummy..hmmmm...oh boy I love sweet!

And more foods.....

Amazing how Thai architecture looks similar to Cambodian.

This guy is hilarious :)

My boys and his mommy looking around and enjoyed themselves.

This status symbolized a buddish ancient myth called Yaksa guarding the temple from the evil spirit.

Happy New Year Everyone

May you and your family have a prosperous and healthy new year. Only good wishes and fortunes come to you. Sorry no pictures at this time. However, I will add some more new year pictures from Pomona this weekend. Have a nice day.

3rd Annual Long Beach Cambodian New Year Parade

Here are some pictures I took this morning in Long Beach's Cambodian town. Hugh crowd showed up for the parade.

Dengue Fever Singer, Nimol

Recently, Guy's blog posted a video clip of Chhom Nimol, I found it very interesting, but neutral feeling due to the fact that I see Nimol almost every weekends at Paradise restaurant, Dragon House and my friend's house, Im just used to it. She is sexy n cute too..hehehehe. The other day she came over and stayed at my friend's house for the whole night. By the morning, Nimol and her other two girl friends started to mess around in PalTalk. They sang and enjoyed themselves. It's a girl thing, you know. Lol. Next time I will take her picture whenever I see her. For now, peace out..enjoy!

Have a nice day, I have to go to work now :)
