Killer Cars is neither about cars nor anything homicidal. If you came here looking for such, I suggest you stay.
This weblog originally began as an innocent college weblog containing party pic postings, sophomoric humor and the occasional boob reference. Afterwards, the author grew up and the weblog got a little serious.
The weblog is named after a somewhat unknown Radiohead song, “Killer Cars“. The feelings between the song and the author are mutual.
Occasionally updated. Sometimes not for weeks. Deal with it.

About the author:
I am a 20-something Cambodian American living in Rhode Island. I’m currently working as a trainer for a medical software company in Westborough, MA. I was born to Cambodian parents, on a refugee camp in Thailand shortly after the Khmer Rouge regime. Rhode Island is where I grew up. The University of New Hampshire is where I earned my degree in Business Administration and Information Systems. I’m also a former Peace Corps Volunteer (Cape Verde ‘05)
My interests include traveling (preferably Asia or Africa), partying, music and technology. I dream to live in a big city, as I haven’t escaped the small town feel of New England. As you can tell by reading this weblog, I’m still getting through the “real world” stage of being a 20 something.
I enjoy reading mail and comments (e-mail address in sidebar), please send them this way!
Hi there! I have been reading through your blog tonight and have really enjoyed it. I am currently applying to the Peace Corps (found your blog through a Google search concerning it) and am fascinated by your experiences with it. I have been in the “real world” for a few years now, and left with the onset of Hurricane Katrina as a Red Cross volunteer for a year or so. Now, I have another cubicle-ridden job, and hate it. I hate being grown up and working in corporate America. So, my solution join the Peace Corps. I think it is the right choice for me, but I am still not sure. Your blog has been a great source of knowledge and support for my feelings. I appreciate it very much!
Thanks!
Wow.
Because I am also in the process of applying I have been voraciously reading anything I can find online on this process, I just had to comment to tell you that your blog (for me) is by far the best one I have found.
I’m not exaggerating when I say that.
Your reflections were so helpful and reassuring. I was thinking I was the ONLY ONE feeling this way, that the application process itself was challenging to complete, even thought I (thought I) was so sure I wanted this. You’ve returned my hope and courage to me. I am sure it had not wandered very far, but still, I needed it.
I’m curious to hear any recent thoughts on your experience, since these PC posts are from 2005. Do you still check the site?
Thank you for being out there and so willing to share in a format that allows others to benefit from your thoughts.
