Heath Ledger found dead 2008-01-23 00:46:18 Police have confirmed that sleeping pills were discovered near the body of Australian actor Heath
Ledger, 28, when he was found dead in a Manhattan apartment today.New York Police Department deputy commissioner Paul Browne said the Oscar-nominated actor's body was found naked and face-down on the floor of his bedroom by a housekeeper about 3.30pm Tuesday.This is such sad and shocking news to hear. R.I.P. And my thoughts go out to his family and friends....
My Uncle is sick :( 2008-01-16 22:35:20 I received an email from his brother saying he might have stomach cancer. I might be going back to the states soon to see him. He will hear back from the doctor on Friday about his condition. I'm sure he will be fine, but I would like to ask for all of my readers to pray for him and if you don't pray, just wish that he would be OK. Thank you :)

Back from Lang Suan finally! 2008-01-12 07:17:24 I just got back and I was thinking of updating my blog with a bunch of pictures and videos, but I'm too tired to do it right now. The update will be tomorrow I promise! It was the first time for me to eat random tropical fish.Thai people eay ANY fish they catch no matter what type of fish it is. Where we fished the water was a pretty blue, but the beach needed some cleaning up. It was not a tourist type beach which was good. I got a good sunburn which then ended up tanning. I took some pictures with my new Sony camera that i reviewed earlier on in this blog. The closeup feature is amazing. I will add more tomorrow. See you guys soon!
