stranger in a strange land: a day of numbers
http://katrinamonkey.blogspot.com/2008/08/day-of-numbers.html
Stranger in a strange land. Babbling on (and on) about adventures and non-adventures. Thursday, August 28, 2008. A day of numbers. 371 - number of days since my last blog entry. 11 - number of people who, on my whirlwind to Canada and England mentioned my blog, and reading my blog. 1 - number of people who I thought were reading my blog (my mom! 3 - number of Korean verb forms that I could recall yesterday, when I stepped off my plane in Seoul. 8 - number of Korean verb forms that I can remember right now.

Stranger in a strange land. Babbling on (and on) about adventures and non-adventures. Wednesday, June 13, 2007. First of all, the Konglish term for gym is "Health Club" (pron. hel-su ku-lub). So I now say that when I speak English too. I have bonded with the following people over my gym membership (and also, worked out with them - although I like to work out alone, but people seem to want to work out together when they run into me so whatevs):. Another waygook teacher in my 'hood (ditto). When I was in T...

stranger in a strange land: it's happening
http://katrinamonkey.blogspot.com/2007/06/its-happening.html
Stranger in a strange land. Babbling on (and on) about adventures and non-adventures. Monday, June 18, 2007. I went for dinner tonight with a Korean friend. Her communicative English skills are quite good - however, she and I still work to communicate in either English or Korean. And for the first time, it was a more balanced communication - I was able to understand Korean words that she was using (ie. jja-da/salty) and provide her with the English counterpart! And it was grammatically correct!

stranger in a strange land: home in 16 days!
http://katrinamonkey.blogspot.com/2007/08/home-in-16-days.html
Stranger in a strange land. Babbling on (and on) about adventures and non-adventures. Wednesday, August 22, 2007. Home in 16 days! True, that. I will return to Canadian soil for the briefest time, in 16 days. The weirdest thing about it all, is that in less than a month, I'll be back here in Ulsan. It will be a busy couple of weeks - I am out of town this weekend (Busan! Today's my first day back at school after summer vacation. I have one class. Nothing exciting, nothing profound. Sorry. Especially sinc...

Costume Jewelry: All happy Mistress La Spliffes are the same
http://mrbounce.blogspot.com/2015/06/all-happy-mistress-la-spliffes-are-same.html
Audaces fortuna iuvat, bitch, and savour ecstacy on the instant. Venerdì, giugno 26, 2015. All happy Mistress La Spliffes are the same. It is really awesome here, which is why I haven't written anything here for awhile. I kind of love it. It's only been - what - four months? Cheap and awesome daycare. A great deal more and very little to gall me. Here's my favorite riff on that, BTW. Spat by Mistress La Spliffe. Iscriviti a: Commenti sul post (Atom). So I sez to Mabel, I sez . . . A Patch of Blue.

Audaces fortuna iuvat, bitch, and savour ecstacy on the instant. Lunedì, dicembre 29, 2014. Good Lord, but how can we all avoid being Catholic when Christmas can be so purgatorial? Fuck This. Place. But then that would have precluded our second Christmas here happening, during which the F-word had a major conflagration with ten close family members that has shaped up into looking permanent. Which would have been - bad? The last. The F-word is the only person in his father's family that the F-word's f...

Audaces fortuna iuvat, bitch, and savour ecstacy on the instant. Lunedì, ottobre 20, 2014. I am just a humble tenant of the Kafkaesque state. I'm pretty intimate with what the right passports are able to do for you, and have enough South Asian and non-EU Mediterranean friends to get a broad picture of what happens with the wrong passports. But us - we have our papers. We can fly out of Casablanca now. Didn't even need to fuck the chief of police. One of those underrated obscure gems.). I guess you can't ...

Audaces fortuna iuvat, bitch, and savour ecstacy on the instant. Mercoledì, luglio 15, 2015. I was wondering how the flies would get in my ointment. As a basically dissatisfied person, I wondered, what will I find to be dissatisfied about here? It turns out that the only thing that has cropped up is that I feel uncomfortable living in a country whose politicians and population feel so comfortable holding another country's head down a toilet. Last time anyone tried to, they turned into the fucking Nazis a...

Costume Jewelry: Unterschweinen
http://mrbounce.blogspot.com/2015/07/unterschweinen.html
Audaces fortuna iuvat, bitch, and savour ecstacy on the instant. Venerdì, luglio 10, 2015. When we bought our house in L , back in Aussieland, it was in a very sweet neighbourhood. A sort of oasis of old-fashion Australianness, where neighbours still made eye contact and chit-chat - preserved by virtue of the fact that the people living there were fucking old and had been living there for decades and decades. Pigs will be pigs - whatever. I get that. What is sticking in my craw is that these cunt.
