Some Random Facts and Figures
6th April 2006
- Total Days Stayed: 189
Seems short and long at the same time.
- Pictures taken: 7,611
... or about 40 a day. I like the shotgun approach to
photography. If I take enough photos then one or
two have to
be good.
- Most photos in one day: 532
... on the day of the Pulao
Graduation, my farewell party and the graduation disco. It
worked outs to be about one every two minutes.
- Cameras Used: Three
One lost, one died of exhaustion and one in use.
- Cell Phones Used: Three
One destroyed, one stolen and one in use.
- Kissed Received: Two
One from a the lead singer from Sizzle and
one random one on the cheek from Cute. Sizzle story can be
found here.
- Number of Students who Passed their Year: 87
Which would be all of them. This may be slightly skewed by the
cheating that went
on.
- Most Expensive Item Lost: New Zealand SIM Card
To the tune of 240,000 pesos ($NZ 6,000). Full story can be
found here.
- Dollars spent per week: About $NZ 100 or 4,000 pesos
This is slightly skewed by the large ticket items I bought - like my
flash new digital camera at $NZ 375 - and all the island hopping I
did.
- Most Treasured Acquisition: A toss up between my D.C.V.
Basketball Top and the photo
Lorren Joy gave me.
An honorable mention go to my bracelets.
These were given to me by numerous students as a remembrance.
I have about twenty black ones and one white one. I joke
with the kids that it is representative of me in the Philippines.
- Kilograms Lost: Seven
A healthy diet of rice and fish heads will do this to you!
Well, not quite true. The food Jen Jen served me was very
nice. Check out this
for a sample meal.
I will miss the fresh mangos and pineapples when I am in New Zealand
