The amount that cost me to play my first paintball experience was a mere 13$. And since then, the game ‘almost’ changed my life: my daily routines,  my weekly activities, etc. (I hope it gets me back to blogging…)

T’was August 1, 2010 when i first played the game. Been invited many weekends but it was only that Sunday that i was able to join.  Started as a 4-vs-4 but as few friends came in, it ended up to a 5-vs-5. Our final score was 7 and them = 3! I’m good! My team mate’s good… We’re all good! hehe… (Kudos to my team mates jeff, robin, ampatuan & fred) Thanks to that Counter-Strike (CS) game that drived me simulate those combat-like moves and put to life…

Personally, ive been longing to experience the game since it got mainstream even in Philippines but they always say the game comes with a price tag… and it’s always a steal…that 13$ i say is worth it.

Mezzanine Paintball
88B Northbridge St.
Stoeng Mean Chey, Mean Chey, Phnom Penh
Telephone: +855  97 840 500 / +855 23 865 566

8$ – Basic Fee,  Standard issue of
1 pc  Paintball marker (gun, Tippman brand) with HPA (high pressured air) tank included
1 pc  Paintball Goggles (JT brand…)
1 pc  Service Jumpsuits  (that suit you see bombsquads, SWAT, “tubero”, military, etc. wears)
1 pc  safety vest
50 pcs  Paintballs

Additional charges:
+5$ – gun/marker upgrade…
+5$ – for every 50 paintball reloads…

Breaking down my 1st paintball experience was the basic fee plus 5$ reload. Foods and drinks are not allowed on the premise. Mezzanine Paintball is a bit off the city (Approximately 15-20 motorbike drive from Sovanna Shopping Center or InterContinental Phnom Penh) so refreshment within the grounds is a bit pricey. A bottle of mineral water which usually costs .25$ or 1000 riels costs double at mezzanine… 2000 riels or .50$ for a mineral water.

If you’re on my facebook, you’d probably be one of these 3 – A) pissed off……. B) envious or C) interested person with what me and my paintball buddies are posting. Fantastic photos, extreme paintball vids, mouthwatering jersey styles, etc…

My apologies! we’re just so-into-the game. Really. Like every Sunday, everybody has some paintball news or story to tell – and what’s amazing is — everybody is interested about it. We talk about last weeks funny moments, official rules, paintball teams, youtube video’s, paintball gears, etc… anything about paintball and anything that goes in between, we talk about it…

Last week’s paintball was interesting. Check out wifey joyce’s first paintball on her blog. Interestingly, it was also last week that we were beaten by some rich khmer locals. Follow the 50 vs 200 story on her blog.

Catch my next blog: my empire pants and jersey, my JT paintball suits, my dye i4 goggles and much much more… My orders Santa hasnt arrived so ive got nothing to talk about yet… Kinda boring when i blog – i ordered this, i ordered that… blah blah blah when everything’s not on my hand yet.

BTW, as of the writing, it’s the 3rd day of International Paintball Championship 2010 currently happening at home, Philippines. LOTS of international team joined this competition. They’re prolly shooting lots and lots of balls as of the moment.

Till then, keep shooting balls! Imma blog more paintball stuff when im not bored much. I’m sleepy much so i got to brb much. BYEYERS! Remember, in everything you do, IT TAKES A LOT OF BALLS!!! ( mezzanine paintball slogan hehe)

I love you baby, happy birthday! God Bless!

To everyone who took a time out from your otherwise busy Saturday to sing, dine and drink on my birthday. Thank you very much.

And to my one and only Joyce for being the best partner a man could have. She who took a time out from playing Ran (during a x4 & x3 BTG! hehe) and decided to wake up early, hit the market, and cook instead… +9 to you mommy! You deserve a treat!

I don’t think of it as being another year older. I think of it as another year of having special people around me… be it online and IRL…

Again, Thank You! Salamat! Shukran!, Merci, Cam On, Okun Charan!!!

A very short and sweet message to my lovely sister — who just turned 18! (my local time) or turning 18 in a few hours (her whatever time in Ca., USA)

Seems like yesterday when we’re was just taking snaps of you on your baby walker — HALF SLEEPING with your milk on your hand and you’re so pissed – crying whenever me or your kuya nico takes it… ; seems like yesterday when me and nico were playing tetris and you went crying out loud because you fell off your crib – head first…; seems like yesterday when i was the a vainest kuya that existed (i think) that washes your ass with a latex gloves because your sh*t looks and smell like sh*t!  (and now, you’re the one doing it to aiken — without the gloves! how marvelous!)

then you grew up older and winning that Gorilla Witch award… then became a dancer that could have been a threat to the ASF or Sexbomb with your Vengaboys’ Venga Bus moves on your camouflage outfit (this could be a sign! ) … then you go to school with sir nick’s uber awesome bike… then on summer, I remember picking you up on your ballet class– either on foot with that umbrella from RCBC or on wheels, again with sir nicks uber awesome bike…

then you went to high school… literally untouchable because of our super-stage-mom-and-dads backed by the entire editorial staff of Cavite Expose.

then you became an instant ‘bunso’ of the awesomest group once existed on-and-off line;  then you went to college… following me and your kuya nico’s footstep… (then you stopped. TOO EARLY. you had no chance of doing more of what me and nico do best —- CUT CLASSES and play Counter Strike man the shop while programming VB6 or C++ instead) but you did a  great job making more waves with the organization on your first year… it could have been tsunami if you stayed…

Then you left for LA., thanks to facebook we’re still connected and interestingly more updated! and now… You’re 18! haha… still a long way baecs… chie… nica… hershey

As i always write on birthday doodle frames — ‘as God add years to your life, ask him to add life to your years’

Happy Birthday Hershey!

Kuya Pong and everyone else here with me loves and misses you… take care always and we’re always here supporting you on whatever endeavor you’ll be going through…

Ok, here goes…

Little that everybody know, i already have my official photography portfolio running at  http://nestlepoell.net/photography. It’s quite packed with my proofs from various category from commercial photography, fashion, events and others…

My latest addition was last night’s Shinee’s Heart to Heart Concert in Cambodia(An R&B Group from Korea) staged at Olympic Stadium, Phnom Penh.

Click on the photos to view the set… Enjoy!

All right, in my quest to go back to REGULAR blogging… let me start-off with this drawing piece for a 20$ *Cellcard phone card contest…

i long to win this 20$ prepaid load, it’ll save me bigtime for a month or two as i average 10-20$ every 2 mos for my calls, sms and 3G…

* Cellcard has been Cambodia’s preferred pre-paid phone card since it first appeared on the market in 1998. And because of its great range of services, Cellcard remains the first choice for over 650,000 subscribers.

Ain’t that cute? makes me wanna be a kid again…

Again, A proud owner of an “iPhone killer”. One of the best Nokia smart phone out in the market.
So good that i have to buy the phone – twice.
