Life's More Real: Eating Local in Panama
http://lifesmorereal.blogspot.com/2014/09/eating-local-in-panama.html
A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Tuesday, September 2, 2014. Eating Local in Panama. Panama has enormous crabs. Eating local has always been something I've aspired too. The connection between people and the earth is ancient, delicious, and increasingly disappearing. Globalization has brought Idahoan dried potatoes and Rogue Brewery beer all the way to Panama. In supermarkets here you're more likely to find foreign produce than local. Our next visi...

Life's More Real: July 2014
http://lifesmorereal.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Monday, July 14, 2014. I Have No Skills. I am amazed at the lack of skills I have. To illustrate that point, let me tell you a story about a shirt. I clutched my bosom protectively, made it home unmolested and took the shirt off. I thought it was just decorative. Maybe I'm an extreme case, but I doubt it. We don't make the things we use anymore, and as a result we don't know to fix them. When they break, we...There...

A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Sunday, January 18, 2015. 7 Benefits of Finally Learning to Cook for Myself (at 31). My life has reached a tipping point. I officially like the food I cook more than I like eating out, almost anywhere. Delicious. Cheap. Healthy. I like my food in that order. Delicious. Cheap. Healthy. So what are the benefits of finally being to cook well? I'm eating better tasting food. We pay a lot of money for inferior, reheated...

Life's More Real: November 2014
http://lifesmorereal.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Sunday, November 16, 2014. Mailing a Post Card in Panama. So I bought 10 post cards and wrote the first batch to my 8th graders who graduated last year. These are kids who I had taught for 4 years, and who moved on from Butte Creek the same time I did. I felt a closer bond with than I had any other class, it felt right that they should receive the first of my 100 post card salvo from Panama. Arriving at Mail Boxes ...

Life's More Real: The Sad Tale of Sanki Panki
http://lifesmorereal.blogspot.com/2008/08/sad-tale-of-sanki-panki.html
A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Friday, August 1, 2008. The Sad Tale of Sanki Panki. Seeing something so incongrous and obvious makes it awkward to walk by them and hard not to stare. I keep imagining the face Jim Halpert. Makes when Michael Scott. Does something inappropriate in the Office. The face that says, "Really? At the Fundacion Mahatma Ghandi. But there's still those few who are here only for a good time, and the Dominican Republic's ima...

A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Monday, September 15, 2014. Sometimes it rains when I wake up and I think I'm back home. Then I realize the curtains are bright green, my dog isn't anywhere to be found and there's a gecko looking at me. Really well, can you show me what you're doing? The weekends blow my mind. This Saturday my girlfriend and I decided we'd go to the beach. Flipping through Lonely Planet, we settled on Kuna Yala, a semi-ind...30 mi...

A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Wednesday, May 7, 2008. Life is too short. Stop being awkward. Sometime, especially around people I don't know well, I can be awkward. Things might not appear awkward, but I feel awkward. I don't know what to say or worry what people will think of me. All you introverts probably know what I'm saying. What did I have to lose? Posted by Mr. L. Labels: Death Bed Me. I love consulting with "Death Bed Me." That's a ...

A blog about teaching, the good things in life, and everything else. Follow me @garronlam. Friday, August 29, 2014. Few #firstworldproblems are worse than being under- or over-dressed. But imagine being responsible for a whole group of people being under-dressed? Then the assembly happened. As kids poured into the halls I saw coordinated outfits, banners, signs, and more. One group of students was all dressed like clowns. Another had Angry Bird beanies. Some wore panda masks. Others a...To make things wo...
