Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Friday, August 25, 2006. No Rice for 30 days! I asked a 10 year old boy "can you go 30 days without rice? And he replied "No, I would die! At dinner tonight I refused rice and everyone had a fit. They said "you cannot eat food without rice! And I replied "Watch me" and I did. I said "For 30 days I will eat no rice". The boy said "But you will die! Posted by Patrick Coston at 6:48 AM. Links to this post. View my complete profile. Pat Coston's Movie Reviews.

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures: June 2006

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Tuesday, June 20, 2006. I purchased a copy of Reader's Digest here in Malaysia and it looks exactly the same. It's in English but once in a while I'm reminded this is the Asian version of Reader's Digest. They use Metric so I'll read cm instead of inches or km instead of miles, centigrade instead of Fahrenheit. Of course they speak about Ringgits instead of dollars.

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Thursday, May 25, 2006. I accidentally changed the channel on the TV to channel 1 and there was a Malaysian Muslim worship. In the corner was a woman who was doing sign language when ever someone spoke. Only the men were worshipping. They separate the men from the woman during worship. Maybe only the men gather like this for worship. I honestly don't know. As I'm watching this worship service in silence I see Kelly's father walk by and he gives me a really strange l...

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Monday, July 10, 2006. I don't have pics yet but they are coming. I keep writing "blog worthy" stories in email and it's a pain to re-write them for the blog so what I'm going to do is just start copy/pasting my emails to my blog to save time. Here's an email I just wrote. I deleted all of the non-blog worthy stuff. Forwarded message - - - - -. Date: Jul 10, 2006 9:28 PM. Children 1 or 2 years old standing in the basket on the front of the. Then they don't bother st...

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Friday, December 30, 2005. Pim Pim and Pok Pok. While living in the USA I met online Pim Pim from Thailand. I told her that my favorite food is Thai food, specifically the red-curry chicken in coconut milk. She told me that her favorite food is Papaya Pok Pok. So I visited a Thai restaurant but they never heard of it. Finally I visited Thailand and I asked for Papaya Pok Pok but still nobody heard of it. If I had to choose between eating my favorite Americanized Tha...

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures: September 2006
http://patrick-james-coston-asian-adventures.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Sunday, September 17, 2006. No Rice Day 23 of 30. I've quite enjoyed not eating rice. I much prefer a sandwich or noodles over rice anyway. The only drawback has been buying my own food. It takes time to go shopping since I have to ride my bike 45 minutes to the nearest decent supermarket. It also cost more money since I'm not eating the food provided by the family. I still miss beef hotdogs. Chicken dogs just aren't the same. I informed them that the reason it’s ca...

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures: March 2006
http://patrick-james-coston-asian-adventures.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Thursday, March 02, 2006. Muslim woman flips me the middle finger. Last night I went for a bike ride over the mountain pass via the road. I attempted to find a path thru the forest back over the mountain but the sun was setting and I ran out of sunlight so I was forced to take the mountain pass road back. Unfortunately this is very dangerous because. 1 there are no street lights. 2 it's very fast and windy and narrow. 6 I have no lights so I'm not that visible.

Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures: November 2005
http://patrick-james-coston-asian-adventures.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Patrick James Coston Asian Adventures. Saturday, November 26, 2005. 10 hour bike ride. Yesterday I rode around. Island which I'm told is about 50 miles. I did it in 10 hours so I averaged 5 miles per hour. I made many stops along the way to rest, take pictures, eat and get my bike repaired. The trip was quite uneventful so I don’t really have any great story to tell as I had hoped so all I can really do is ramble on and on about nothing. I left Teluk Kumbar at. During a rain storm. For the uphill climbs ...
