Counter Productive

Well, It's time to give up the beer for awhile
Time to "hop on the wagon" so to speak
Problem is I like beer, and it's so cheap here..water seems expensive!
However, as of the past days events it's time to gear down.
I type this post from a stand up computer terminal in Gimpo airport S.Korea
Why am I here and not in Japan???
a few beers + lack of sleep= miss my morning flight
So,I'm on my way shortly but I lost out on a day.
Been doing well in my Geography,only one assignment to go!
So far so good!
The plan is look for a new course to take and keep goin with it
maybe get into Oceans and fisheries type job eventually if I pick the right courses.
There's a marine college in Nova scotia that trains people to be coastgaurds
probably really expensive to attend, but Im lookin into it.
That would be cool!
Before I step back on my home turf, I'm planning a month vacation/treat for myself
Southeast asia seems to stick out but im looking around.
Vietnam,Thailand,Cambodia,Laos and any other god dam hot country I can squeeze in!
After all end of October in Canada is dam close to winter.
Gonna miss the moose hunting but Im sure PBear(and group) will shoot one anyway if Im there or not
Well gotta run here I have a Korean man standing beside me wondering why this white guy is typing up a storm when he needs the computer.
Check in later skaters!

Small Town Hometown Bringdown

Had a great Canada day, in the wrong country!
it was nice to have all the canadians here in the same bar
Tragically Hip cover band and Moosehead beer = A good night.
Going to Tokyo in 8 days and man I'm looking forward to that
Going solo, never have I done that
it should be a learning curve.
Hopefully the weather is good... as of late, every weekend it's freakin raining.
trying to email people at home...man I really wish I had a phone
If ya wanna call me (country code that I cant remember)8210-7217-6942
Sad that Korea lost in the world cup race, they deseved that game three times over but couldn't put it in the net.
Been super lazy the last two weeks no gym and lots of beer ohhh ya and I can't forget the new show(to me) I been watching called "the wire" hooked like crack I am on that show, I mean it's no Deadliest catch but it's great!
Everything seems normal here in regards to the yo yo's that live in N Korea
hope so anyhow, there's been a lack of fighter planes and choppers flying over my neighbourhood lately so, thats my guess.
Why is it because Im leaving here soon
I start to make all these great connections?
Maybe I'll have to come back one day..
you know there's no jobs in TBay!

You Can Have This Car In Any Colour Ya Like, As Long As It's Black

Well where do I start?
Teri and I are split, I got my own apartment about the size of a king size bed.
Hey it's somewhere to store my shit and beets the couch I slept on for two days. I don't have a plan but, im here till September maybe October?
Things are lonely in a strange country now that im flying solo
I do know people here and we hang out once in awhile. I go to the gym and entertain myself for an hour or two a day(not this week though I been lazy)
Doing Ok in my online course and it keeps me busy.
Talking to a beer can on a regular basis is driving me nuts so I thought I would write something on here afterall it's been a long time.
People make mistakes in life, and believe it or not I do too. I don't think it was a mistake to quit my job and come to Asia, I been to Shanghai,Taiwan,and all over Korea.I do have a few more places to see before I go home. What am I gonna do when i get there? Who the fuck knows, to be honest I haven't a clue. I don't think it was a mistake to meet new people and try new foods. I don't think it was a mistake to learn a different culture and language(which im not very good at) I do think it was a mistake to throw the relationship I had, more importantly the friendship I had out the window because of a dumb move.
Anybody got a time machine?
Anybody??

X saves The World

Been a long time since I have posted.....
You probably know that!
Well not much to say these days
Taking a geography course through the university of Manitoba to keep my brain occupied it is 100% online and something to do
I learned two little interesting things the last few weeks:
90,000 people a day go through Seoul Station
That's the population of Thunder bay LOL That's also pretty freakin busy
Dog Soup costs $13 a bowl not that I ate it or want to eat it but I popped into one of very many "dog" restaurants to see how much the shit sells for...
You get some funny looks from the locals when you go into or around these "potion-tung" restaurants
Going to Taipei in two weeks, looking forward to that! A whilwind adventure of a weekend it will be....might I also say cheap at $350 round trip tickets!
That's about all I have at this point but hopefully we'll talk to ya soon!
