Only about a kilometer from one of the most visited temples in the world of Angkor Wat lies Wat Ang Kea Sa. Wat Ang Kea Sa is one of many monasteries in predominately Buddhist Cambodia with a thriving population of young men. Over one hundred Bodhisattva (The one striving for Enlightenment) monks study the Pali language (the language of Theravada Buddhism) here while also studying the international language of English. They split their study time towards the path to enlightenment with the path to a career in their post-monk hood world. After a few years of living in the pagoda many of these men look to enter the tourism workforce thriving in Siem Reap. Speaking another language is a must in order to land a decent paying job at one of the many new four and five star hotels popping up. Alongside their traditional orange robes they reveal a somewhat non-traditional view of tattooed arms with cell phones clipped to their robes and a partially divided life they will live. While Buddhism will probably play a prominent role in their future lives, their time at the pagoda and their time in the robes is short lived.
There is a trade-off with driveways. The longer they are, the more expensive they are. The shorter they are, the less privacy you have at the house. And when they go uphill, you get a better view, but in normal winters, you might need a winch and cable to get the car to the house. Or snowshoes and walk. Or hire a guy with a diesel dually mounted with a hydraulic plow blade on the front. And the longer the driveway, the more expensive it is to get plowed....

Functional temporary rings. Soap has been on my 'to do' list for jewelry for ages. A photo of all eight I made that week.

This building is on the Mansfield side of the old pub. It used to sell pizzas and local produce and is now used as the temporary pub. There is no sign of building going on.
The fleeting blooms of my irises are a natural reminder that everything is temporary - you know, live in the moment, etc.
AS FRIENDS RUST - "Temporary Living"
Temporary living for a temporary life.
( I thought you knew ) Temporary living.
Blanketed in bubble wrap, kept my heart in a doggie bag.
9 to 5 in the portolet, hold my zip-loc dreams while I styrofoam.
Opened up the mail-order wife with a plastic knife and she mp3'd.
She was beautiful, like one of them Real Dolls.
Laid down the terrycloth on the astro-turf.
Set up the paper plates, the inflatable dates, for a rewinded picnic.
Can't keep a love like this just anywhere.
Gotta keep a love like this in tupperware.
It's temporary living for a temporary life.
Wolverhampton Bus Station was being rebuilt so routes had to use nearby roads at the time of this 12/1/11 photo, with 4765 working amongst the ALX Tridents on route 529 from Walsall.
If there is one thing that can be said about the weather in June, it is: unpredictable! We've had typical Midsummer weather - sun, blue sky with not a cloud in sight, clouds, even darker clouds, rain, heavy rain, gales... Only hails and thundering are missing now.
We were lucky at some point yesterday, so we all took out an old carpet on the lawn and enjoyed the sun and summer :)
