\"conjunctivitis\"<\/p>\n

It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a weird feeling\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 not the conjunctivitis I caught in late May, but you know the one; where within 5 minutes of meeting someone you either like them or not. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not too much of a problem if you like them because you can just continue talking to them, trading stories, exchanging ideas or cracking jokes. But, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s when you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t like them after 5 minutes and you still have to keep talking to them that makes it difficult.<\/p>\n

I was introduced to someone at work today and it was almost unbearable to continue talking to the person \u00e2\u20ac\u201c let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s call this person Dr. J. It could\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been Dr. J\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s patronizing attitude and giving orders to whoever crossed Dr. J\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s path, or it could\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been the Dr.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s complete disregard for other people\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ideas and experiences. It made me cringe when I introduced the Dr. to one of my colleagues. After 2 seconds of meeting my colleague, the Dr. started to give my colleague orders! And they don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even work in the same office. In this case, I was polite enough to wait for the meeting to end\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 but it really made me not want to work with the Dr. I mean, what would you do if you just met someone and they gave you really bad vibes?<\/p>\n

Anyway, here are a few photos to recap the pass month\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been too busy at work to provide weekly updates.<\/p>\n

\"Aileu\"<\/p>\n

For a friends birthday in early June, we went to Aileu, Dili’s neighboring district. Most of the people who went for the picnic were French… so we enjoyed good food, wine and fois gras!<\/p>\n

\"Beach<\/p>\n

Now that the rainy season is over, people are heading to the beach and staying most of the day. We decided to have brunch on the beach, it’s something I need to do more often.<\/p>\n

\"Maubara<\/p>\n

Last weekend, there was a beach craft fair to promote locally produced goods… not only was it nice to get out of Dili to Maubara, about 50 kms west, but it was nice to interact and support the locals.<\/p>\n

\"Maubara<\/p>\n

Maubara beach – this is looking from where they had the ‘beach fair’… definitely a good spot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
