- Sorta, the education system gets fucked by the extracurricular (hagwon in Korean) academies. Basically, the students who's parents have enough money can debate the criterion for knowledge with me and possibly teach me some grammar rules in the process, whereas the ones who don't have rich parents need to be taught things like "hello, what's your name?"

- No worries, normally I wouldn't care but since I'm at work in an elementary school I'd feel pretty dirty reading any innuendos.

A Friend's Dream...
Posted on March 28, 2011 at 7:41pm 4 Comments 0 Likes
A friend of mine used to be Atheist but a few years ago she became catholic. (Backwards, right?) I love her and she's a great friend, but sometimes the religion gets to be too much. Today I'm kind of amused. She posted a note on facebook about a dream she had.... and she thinks it was a sign from god. I of course, think she ate something bad before going to bed. Lol anyone care to give me a clue as to what her dream may mean? Cus it's damn sure not from any sort of god.

I was just talking to my brother about this holiday decorating challenge where I work. I spoke up first in my area so I'm "leader" but I'm sure that won't be for long. I told the group we're doing all three holidays: chaunaka, kwanzaa and christmas. A lady who is religious (this surprised me...) spoke up and said we should also have a santa section for people who arent christian and like santa. And another person ssid what about the three kings... so we're having all that. But since we're a… Continue
