I got that other list you ask me about. The list of sexual partners? Eh, no, hm… the list of travelers I’ve met over the years. I wasn’t serious that day, we had a lot to drink and I was just brainstorming, please don’t tell me you made a list with tens of thousands of names. I figured that wouldn’t be possible, but… I also found that most people I’ve met had suspiciously similar characteristics,…
"Intro to people from couchsurfing"
Oh, sorry i forgot t tell you, we don’t use fighting anymore Why not? I don’t know, people just stop using some words and phrases over time so that new ones can take their place. Can I still use ftw. I don’t think so, they wouldn’t know what you mean. Kind of like quoting Monty Phyton? Yeah, something like that, wait, how long have you been off the internet? I don’t know, a few years,…
"List of countries"
I have an idea! Oh, hi! I have an idea. You can write here again? You should ask “what kind of idea?” I thought you had lost the password for this blog and for your cutepuppybrunogmail account, how come you can write again? same as before I can’t access it or read what I wrote, can only email it from my Chinese email for it to be auto-posted. Oh yeah, I remember, well, how have…
"Writing our thoughts"
Do you remember firefly? No, what’s that? An old sci-fi show. What was it about? It’s like cowboys but in space. 2 genres I’d rather skip on. Well, just watch it. But… Just watch it, you know that’s how I always imagined your life to be like. Like a cowboy in space? Well, maybe not really cowboys, more like renegades, smugglers, thieves, they have to do odd jobs always in different planets, like retrieving some…
"Chaotic good"
1,2,3, go! What happened? Go where? You have 10 minutes. 10 minutes before the internet finishes. Finishes? What do you mean? No more internet forever? No, just for today. Because we have to leave in 10 minutes? 9 minutes now, go go go. Alright, what do I do? Just write anything that comes to mind. Is this a test? Yes, so you better type faster. I don’t know, ask me something. Is the government still…
"10 minutes go"
So, what’s the general sentiment at the heart of life in China? It would be hard to say, hard to choose just feeling to represent such a vast nation’s real motivations, and it’s hard to criticize it, with the limit perspective of being generally just an outsider. We, as foreigners have heard or read most of the hardships the Chinese population has been put through, but we haven’t experienced them ourselves. How about just one…
"Life in China"
Are you still into that anarchist thing? Which one? You know, that one with a weird german name. Zeitgeist? That one. Well, many things have changed since we used to go to the zeitgeist meetings from our Australian chapter. I have I given up on the hopes of being part of a system based on the efficient use of resources and sustainable development instead of a money-based economic system. The answer would be no, I…
"No waifu no laifu"
Are you usually overworked there? It depends some weeks are worse than others, this week we have summer camp at our school, so we have lessons from 9 to 1 then we have to go to some outing, and then few more lessons in the evening. Do you have some assistants to help you? I have a few and they are the good ones. What do you mean by “the good ones”? Well you know…
"News from China"
You can write here again? I’m not sure actually… What do you mean? Well, blogger is still blocked in China, same as google, gmail, facebook, youtube, etc, but when I went to HK I set up the posting preferences from this blog so I can post by email now, so came back to China, opened a Chinese email account and now maybe I can post again by sending an email to a specific blogger…
"Can write again"
But you know, actually, I agree with Gustavo that everyone should work at some farm for at least a month every year so that later when they come back to the city they don’t take for granted the food they eat every day. And my grandfather also was right about something. He always told me I should learn a trade, like carpentry, plumbery or something so that I can always find work in any country,…
