Late Night Gibberish
No particular reason for posting right now. It’s late and I’m bored, so why not? 4:31am and there’s nothing on TV. I have my choice of not one, but two, count them two Adrian Brody movies, or something with Paul Walker and Steve Zahn that I already watched last month. And I have every confidence that tomorrow I’ll have the pleasure of sitting through any number of...
Wasting My Flavor
The Korean versions of American condiments suck. Ketchup and hot sauce especially. The few native sauces and pastes here are very good, but when trying to duplicate something from America they usually miss the mark. Both the ketchup and hot sauce were thicker and sweeter than normal. Both edible, but not really pleasing. The had actual Tabasco brand hot sauce shelved next to the Korean brand,...
Seoul Sucking Photo Dump 3.0
The last two weekends I’ve managed to get out and do something more than go eat kalbi and drink copious amounts of Cass. The weekend before last I went with Jared, Jordan and three other Canadians to Namdemun Market, the oldest open air market in Korea. I’d been there before, but only for a few minutes at a time. We spent the whole day there wandering around, looking at the goods...
Hey Economy!
Why don’t you get in the game, mother fucker? This whole recession bit your doing has gang raped the plan I had to pay off my debt. Seriously. I transferred a million won to my American account today. That’s 1,000,000. Seven digits, bitches. And it turned into a paltry $660. My butt hole feels more stimulated than the economy right now. Fiddlesticks!
Good Riddance...
To (mostly) bad rubbish. Today I had the last of my classes at Kwangwoon Elementary school. My companies contract was not renewed, so come March and the new school year, we will be redistributed to other places. Jared and Jordan will be going to a near by school called Hwarang. However, they have also renegotiated their contracts so as to only work at one place rather than doing split shifts....
Kids Suck
That’s not me talking. It Ma Fratelli from the Goonies and who am I to argue? Especially considering she is right on the money. I’ve been back t the elementary school for three days now and it feels like I never left. It took less than 72 hours for a bunch of 9 year olds to push me form well rested and refreshed to I-need-a-fucking-gun-or a-blunt-object. Douche ass little shit...

My Lemonade Has Been Pissed In
I got up at about one and turned on my TV to find they were showing the fight live instead of on a tape delay like normal. I missed the first half of things, but tuned in just in time to see Lyoto Machida and Thiago Silva. Machida handled him in a most decisive manner. Many people don’t like his style, but he is the real deal and I wont be a bit surprised to see him wearing the light...
Bored, Late, Blah...
It’s 4:35am. I can’t sleep. Mostly cause I didn’t wake up until about 3:30 this afternoon. So now I’m just killing time until the sun comes up, which is about when I can usually get to sleep these days.
I just went and bought two bags of weird chips and a beer. The late half of the night is looking up.
Been downloading a lot of movies as of late. I’ve been...
UFC You Later
Less than 24 hours until the fight. I’ll be watching it about 9 hours after the fact on my free Korean cable. In order to prevent having the outcome spoiled, I’ll probably be incommunicado for the next day.
And if you’re not planning to watch the fight, you should start planning on it. It’s going to be epic.
All hale BJ Penn.
