It's just Korea...: January 2007
http://koreanscoundrel.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
The follwing events are all true. Names, places and dates have not been altered in anyway in order to preserve the actuality of the insane adventures of one man and his undying fascination with The Little Country That Could. Wednesday, January 31, 2007. Malaysia was followed by the utterly flabbergasting wealth that a dollar will do for you in Bali. Oh. My. God. Relaxation at it's finest. Tuesday, January 16, 2007. After the sun-scorching, beach-bumming, beer-induced haze that cleared from our minds as w...

Korean Chaos: Drive-by Gifting
http://koreanchaos.blogspot.com/2007/06/drive-by-gifting.html
I walked out of 3rd period ready to run to the airport. My students were so rude and disrespectful even on our last class together. It made me think "where have I gone wrong, what did I do? I'm writing this letter on my valuable book and I'll rend is and send you. (translation I have no clue). You'll read this in school, in airport, or in U.S.A. If you read this in school I'm shameful and I'm die. Oh I'm kidding. Some time ago you asked me that I have study only Jeju. Do you remember? ON THE BACK IT READS.

Love love-zura.: February 2006
http://uzura.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Love and Beauty Shock. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. We’d like to remind you that the second installment of your senior project. Was scheduled to be due tomorrow, Tuesday Feb 28. We’re going to push that due date back a few days until this Friday, March 3. We trust there are no objections! It continues to rain, and the sound of it is remarkably soothing. I hope I dream of something nice tonight, but objectively speaking, my life at the moment would give any dream a run for its money. The Old Man is Snoring.

Love and Beauty Shock. Wednesday, September 27, 2006. If Korea Was Like The Oregon Trail, Everyone Would Be Dead From Cholera. 4 of the 6 people in my host family are sick, which means I was prepared to get sick myself, but not this way. Of course, this got the kids excited, so the little runts gather around me and start coughing all over me too. What once was a friendly elevator has been turned into an inescapable disease-filled metal prison. So no big deal, right? Just a playful joke? So it's finally t...

It's just Korea...: May 2007
http://koreanscoundrel.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
The follwing events are all true. Names, places and dates have not been altered in anyway in order to preserve the actuality of the insane adventures of one man and his undying fascination with The Little Country That Could. Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Forgive me for being behind the times here, but I've been in Korea and have not had first hand experience until now. But here's my beef:. What the hell is the point of restricting liquids on airplanes? I mean, I'm not going to give any weirdos out there ideas a...

Korean Chaos: Final Lessons and Goodbyes
http://koreanchaos.blogspot.com/2007/06/final-lessons-and-goodbyes.html
Final Lessons and Goodbyes. What I chose to do instead is teach a lesson on diversity as some of my parting words of advice. After learning the proverb "don't judge a book by it's cover," my students play a game where they guess the personalities, jobs, and success of an individual based on one picture. This has proved one of my most interesting lessons thus far. Here are some of the comments I have received thus far:. He is not kind because he is dirty and ugly. He is poor and unsuccessful. Reflections ...

Love and Beauty Shock. Friday, April 28, 2006. It has been and continues to be a brutal final couple of weeks of college, so I feel like I deserve to gloat a wee bit. Hehe, I said wee. Here's what professor Andresen of the English department said about our glee concert last night:. A boon well deserved, fit reward for all you have given to us! A blessing for a blessing. Thank you to you all.". In any case, I guess we did a pretty good job. Come see us on Saturday and, if you can swing by, in Europe.

Korean Chaos: November 2007
http://koreanchaos.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Hectic holiday travel-A MYTH. Have a safe trip". This saying has always been mildly disturbing to hear before departing on a long journey on an airplane. I have absolutely no control over whether I have a safe trip or not-"have a safe trip" insinuates one may not have a safe trip and it is more frustrating when the power is in the hands of the pilot. Moreover have a safe trip-isn't it assumed? Hey have an unsafe trip" plain silliness. Your flight will arrive 5 minutes early? Ma'am we found your black bag!
