I am not trolling now but..

How much do most teachers get sent?

In all honesty, when I quit/did the run I had to get money from my parents for the ticket...

This was after they'd paid my fine, reimburses my lost money from Thailand.

Just curious how common this is!

I haven't received money from my parents in years. Probably not since I got my first job at age 16. Never while I was in Korea.

Considering the things you have told us about yourself, I'd say that, yes, you are a f@@@ up. I don't feel bad about saying that though because I believe that you are lying in every post you make. I even called you out on in it in your last thread where you seemed to have mastered time travel.

Meaning what?

I went to korea in my early twenties

I paid a two million won fine

I did a midnight run in my final month but stayed in country during that time as I actually didn't wanna leave

Had to call my parents to pay for my ticket home and living expenses

Also took a holiday to Thailand not long before the run where I had money stolen too and parents replaced that too

I am laying everything out there

It's all true, it's all f@@@'ed

Why would I lie ???

I got money from my parents alot, for everything, because I'm a spoiled princess and daddy had money.

Yes, he died. Now I don't get much. It's been tough. But I remember how good I had it and that makes me feel better (privileged childhood). I also think of myself now as an actual ADULT (instead of pampered daughter) because I do have to fend for myself. That feels good.

Weren't you saying on another thread that expat guys pay you no mind? Perhaps this has something to do with it.
