Matt's Myth: 08/01/2008 - 09/01/2008
http://mattsmyth.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
See Matt. See Matt blog. Blog, Matt, blog. Friday, August 29, 2008. A story about China. Wrote this for Maryknoll's website. Thought I'd share. I had agonized over that very question the month, week, day, night before. The orientation Maryknoll had provided in Hong Kong was a good start, but Thesis Writing? There were few answers as to how I should approach these subjects in an ESL environment. Would their English be good enough to read Shakespeare? Had they ever written a thesis before? Overall, pleased...

Matt's Myth: 11/01/2008 - 12/01/2008

See Matt. See Matt blog. Blog, Matt, blog. Thursday, November 27, 2008. Today my family hosted the "Smith" side of the Smith-Curran marriage which has spawned me and my kin. We had a large group of sixteen, and I eagerly helped prepare the meal. First off, the turkey:. Let's go to work. This ridiculously elaborate way of getting the turkey into the boiling-hot oil was all in the name of safety. I think next time I can just slowly drop it in there on my own. Ooh, that oil is angry. My brother is weird.

See Matt. See Matt blog. Blog, Matt, blog. Thursday, May 29, 2008. Has been coming to help me teach some make-up classes this week, finishing up a two-part lesson that began with me showing Philadelphia. And has concluded with a long, somewhat interactive lesson on HIV/AIDS that goes into gloriously redundant detail in ultra-simple English. I've even strategically placed some Chinese within the lesson, to explain more complex words like syndrome and virus (as opposed to bacteria) and condom. I feel inten...

Matt's Myth: Cool Things Happen (and Matt is Very Late)
http://mattsmyth.blogspot.com/2009/01/cool-things-happen-and-matt-is-very.html
See Matt. See Matt blog. Blog, Matt, blog. Thursday, January 29, 2009. Cool Things Happen (and Matt is Very Late). 2009 is damn near a month old and I haven't even talked about one of the coolest things to happen in 2008: Jim Hartzel and Cecilia Baldino went to Marriage Camp, and came back Jim and Cecilia Hartzel. Fitz and Billy get the night started right. The secret ingredient is alcohol. Good to not-be-in-China for this! Give me your finest in ghetto margaritas! Fitz pours a classy beer. Ladies and ge...

Matt's Myth: Zhanjiang Propaganda
http://mattsmyth.blogspot.com/2008/11/zhanjiang-propaganda.html
See Matt. See Matt blog. Blog, Matt, blog. Sunday, November 09, 2008. It's very bizarre to see a place where I lived and worked for a year propagandized, but I'd be lying if I said these videos didn't make me a little nostalgic for good 'ol Zhanjiang. Here's one video for Zhanjiang. And here's another for the college where I worked. Both those videos are brought to you by YouKu. Yo, that's coo'! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

See Matt. See Matt blog. Blog, Matt, blog. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. The End of the Year. 2008 has been a long year. I suspect I won't be the only one happy to see it go, and yet, 2008 has help some wonderful memories. This year began for me . well, let's see. My earliest memories of this year are of Harbin, China. And its Tiger Park. And James and Caroline in Luang Prabang. Wonderful memories of those first months of 2008. I asked a guy I work with what his New Years resolution was going to be, if any...
