 |
|
Everland. Not surprising. A million kids. We took ours there yesterday for "Caribbean Bay" but I didn't have shorts. So I just hung outside for about 6 hours. I should have just left, got cooked in the sun. I'd say about 15 "hellos" and a dozen "waygookins"
Seems like a nice place, but too damn crowded. The kids love it though. |

| That Italian flag of yours seems faded. Did you remember to separate the blacks from the whites whilst cleansing? |

That's the preconfederation Newfoundland flag. But nice try though. Nice try. |

| Surely there is a gift shop where you could have bought some caribbean style shorts or swimwear. |

Yeah just didn't bring enough cash, probably wouldn't want to have spent it on shorts mainly for just one day anyway. The other teachers said it was fun but just so damn crowded. It was dumb of me, but I simply never considered shorts as I never wear them. I was mainly concerned about getting to school on time. We had to be there 7:40. Damn it was a good 2 hours each way too, with so much traffic. Pretty much a nothing day, but still "work" and pay I suppose. |

| I think the most "hellos" and "waegukin" I've ever had was in Andong. Every street, alley, restaurant, cafe, bus, tourist spot. I dreaded having to wait on the sidewalk for a green light b/c I'd have three people herro-ing into the back of my head. |

Not to mention the dozen or so Koreans who simply had to use their 5 words of English, speaking to each other only, but only after seeing whitE dude. That was during my 6 hours in Everland. Several adults included.
Coming back on bus Saturday again. How fun to say "nice to meet you" to each other due to my presence.
I can speak Korean compared to their crap English, circles around most of these fools, but most are kids so who cares I guess..
Psychologically disturbed nation re. foreigners and English?
Not a Question.
It is a FACT. |

Links to prove this absurd claim of yours?
It's not that I don't believe you, but I have never seen Koreans or foreigners here acting like chimpanzees, throwing temper tantrums over inane things, or just acting weird in general. Never.
So a link would be most appreciated.
Thanks, jajdude.

That's because they've never been to Wet n Wild, or any of the other three million water parks in Orlando alone that blow Caribbean Bay out of the water. CB sucks arz, from what I remember. It's another example of Koreans mimicking something foreign and getting it all wrong. |
