I used to get really tired of people asking me why I came to Korea. So I told them that when I was in LA I got mixed up in some semi-legal activities with some biker gangs. One thing led to another and pretty soon I was holed up in a stifling hot garage hiding out from the police for two weeks. My buddies helped me out by getting me this job in Korea. I said that if I had a chance to try again, I wouldn't have pulled the trigger.

My class was pretty quiet after that.

I managed to convince an old girfriend that the way that Chinese restuarants produce prawn crackers is by getting a wok really really hot and throwing a real prawn into it, the heat makes the prawn literally explode, Et voila, prawn crackers...She believed that for well over a year.

I told my students that we dont have cities in New Zealand..

we all live on farms and have 10 sheep each in our back yard... thats why you never see any cities in Lord Of the Rings...

we only have 1 cell phone per 5 people so we share them..

Only really rich people have cars..

Now that I think about it.. its kinda believable considering the whole population of NZ is the same as Busan!! hmmm...
