• Tweety Bird

  The other day I was at a shopping center, and needed to pee. Nothing out of the ordinary there! After all, I often need to pee…well not often, I don’t have bladder problems, or weird kidneys – don’t get the wrong idea, it’s not like a running to the bathroom every two seconds thing, just you know…

• Chinese Burn

  What is a Chinese burn? Maybe you know, maybe you don’t…well, let me refresh your memory – a Chinese burn, is a childhood game/trick/prank thing, which is achieved by putting two hands on a victim’s forearm, and then twisting in opposing directions. It fucking hurts – and leaves a red mark…a “Chinese burn” as it is…

• The Monkey King

  Well guys I made it safely to Korea, after what was an utterly agonizingly long journey (27 hours – more thanks to delays? It sounds even worse when I write it out and say it back to myself!)…but anyway, as always on long haul flights you find yourself watching things just to pass the time, often…

  Just a quick one to keep you guys updated! I am finally, finally, finally returning to Korea! After a long wait, employment fall-outs, and various visa complications (that I won’t go into or I will give myself high blood pressure) I am set to travel back to my adopted home tomorrow morning! There were times…

• Back to the future…

  I have just been looking through old photos on my phone, having a little clear out of memes and stupid pictures I seem to accrue for some reason – when I stumbled across this… Let me explain. It’s a screenshot of a message that I got from a kindergarten student of mine after he graduated…
