Fantasy Land…
Following up yesterday’s post here is a very short video of my time at Chiang Rai’s Wat Rong Khun…also known as The White Temple. It’s hard to really describe as there is SO MUCH going on in one relatively small spot…take a look… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzfl9QV_nyk&feature=youtu.be Still not sure what to make of it all! www.facebook.com/storytimewithjohn www.youtube.com/storytimewithjohn101 Please buy…

Chiang Mai…RIDICULOUS Temples
Absolutely blown away by the temples here in Thailand…truly amazing. I feel like all of my dreams as a little boy are just coming to life in these structures (actually I have never changed, but I’m supposed to pretend that dragons and magic aren’t cool now for some reason)… Well anyway, here’s a little look of what…

Cruelty in China – Animal Show
Whilst clearing out the clutter from my computer I came across some old files…some videos I had stored away within a folder within a folder. They were videos showing some rather cruel scenes in a Chinese zoo’s ‘Animal Show’. All is explained in the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezSdDIfC3Zw&feature=youtu.be Bizarre, I just don’t get it. But what do you…

Dead Babies and Ping Pong
Sometimes you have a change of heart, and it is hard to exactly put your finger on why…you just wake up one day and a certain thing isn’t for you anymore – and that’s fine! But sometimes (in fact, more often than not) you know EXACTLY why you have switched sides and the reasons are searing into your brain…

Burden of Crystals
I have NO IDEA how to really write this sort of stuff, still want to possess an amusing narrative voice but don’t want it to appear odd/off-putting. This piece is basically the back-story of the world which my central character will find himself in once he crosses over…essentially a long time ago in a galaxy…

Jehovah’s Witness Liar
Was approached by a very friendly young chap (Steven) the other day, who just so happened to be a Jehovah’s Witness with a rather exciting pamphlet on lying…and how it isn’t totally groovy so we should all just stop lying now to help save the planet. Or something. Anyway, just sharing the story and asking your view just as…

6 Things School Didn’t Teach
It will undoubtedly surprise you to hear that there are numerous things I don’t know…in fact, I would go to say that I don’t know many things at all. So yeah, I don’t know most things. That much is true, at least I know that. When looking for someone or something to blame (rather than just accepting I…

Middle Finger to CCTV!
Sometimes you need to stand up for what is right…and stand up against those that seek to shackle you and obliterate your rights to freedom! Well I have to say…I’m convinced! Bit of background on this – it’s from a slightly older students who spent some time in New Zealand, so unsurprisingly he picked up a…

HUGE Negative of Life Abroad
Of course there are huge perks to travelling and seeing other places! It’s great, it’s wonderful, it’s something to tell your imaginary not even alive yet grandkids! And all that jazz…but what about the negatives? Well there is one in particular that stands out for me… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ve056mcovTs&feature=youtu.be p.s. WOWZA. Just noticed how much of a…

FUCK SELFIES!
I feel like such a grumpy old man for saying this…but I still hate the whole selfie thing. Not just like taking a photograph of you and your ice cream (or whatever) and then sending it to your friend all: “haha – you don’t have a fucking ice cream, and I do!” – because of course, that is fantastic and I…
