Reading is boring. But the good thing in life is that there is always a certain thing invented to make your boredom even more….errr….boring. Not only does it make your life a little bit more miserable, it also at the same time costs you a handsome 320 bucks lot of cash. Even with the poor US dollar exchange rate and super high inflation in Cambodia these days, that $320 still amounts to at least a hundred worth of chickens. Now consider that in Rattanakiri, you could legally get a wife with just a…aerr…..chicken, that’s at least one hundred worth of…..[cough]…[cough]…
So who in their right mind would make their boring hobby a little bit more boring? (boring hobby? is there such a thing?) Well, if you’re like me, that’s exactly what you do. With $320, I’ve got meself a new Sony e-reader device just to keep meself a bit more busy with hundred of e-books, texts and pdf I downloaded have. The bad thing however is that I get one less excuse not to read…

Wanna: does it matter? keke
Miriam: I don’t know. Never measure how much I read.
Panha: let go at $500 after one year old 
Virakvuth: you can’t get in Cambodia. It’s only available in US and Canada at the moment. Get someone there to buy for you.
Nim: interesting. But there are people especially students never complain about the cost of their new handphone when they change every new model every few months.
