Tonight, the general manager at Nissan bought me seven Jack and cokes. I’m fucking faded! Welcome back to Nissan! FUCK YES.
“Fuck it.”
– JFD - Pretty cool guy
What the hell?
Here’s my “new” gameplan.
Balanced diet. Being in the car biz can make you fat. Quick.
Manage my funds. No more strip clubs and $100 bar nights.
Make a respectable salary, $65k.
Pay off debt.
Drink less.
Find a hot Korean girlfriend who can put me in place and tell me to stop being a pussy.

Job Offer
So, I just got offered the job in Seoul I wanted. The right area, right money and right apartment (officetel). The only down-side… five more months of Jacksonville. Why can’t anybody just help me and take my rent? Is it so hard? Fuck, I would do it for other people. Oh well.
Work tomorrow at Nissan. How fun. Welcome back to the car biz buddy.
Upset, beyond belief
My roommate does not want a random person as a roommate. I don’t blame him, but the fact that he would rather me pay through my teeth is annoying. My fake-ass friends in town are fucking pussies.
I’m just going to fucking stay in fucking Jacksonville and continue to work for Nissan and fucking sell some fucking cars and then maybe some day I’ll fucking move away for good to...
Dysfunctional Family
My family is probably different than yours. My parents are still married after 24 years, and I’m starting to wonder why. My father was never around as a kid. Sure, he was there to buy me toys and things, but he was also an asshole.
I never threw a football around with my dad nor played a game of catch. I’m starting to wonder why they even had me.
My mom cares, but she’s...
I made Paella →
Tonight I made paella using this recipe from food52.com. I love this site and everyone should check it out. You can make a lot of these recipes even in Korea. I didn’t take a photo, but it did taste great.
Olleh for home-cooking!
Preparing for Round Three
Last night I had a small get-together at my apartment, in which I invited pretty much every person I knew in town. I got a slew of excuses and a lot a great lack of responses. I guess my friends in town are all a bunch of pricks.
That being said, I got white-boy-wasted and played Taboo. By the way, I’m fucking awesome at Taboo.
At around 1:00AM, I decided to go to the bar. I met this...
My Last Weekend In Jacksonville
My last weekend in Jacksonville, mother fucker.
Photography is for....
I haven’t taken any good pictures recently. That changes now. Going out on the town to eat food and take pix. Maybe casino.
p4tr1ck asked: What has been most disappointing in your return to America?
dizzlediane asked: how old are you?
myradventures asked: I fucking sarang you, too, dimmyfuckingjenfield!
MYRA FLOR
I FUCKING LOVE YOU!

Clarification
It’s real. I’m coming back Charlie. For real. 100%. Unless the Seattle guy calls me in the next few days, my mind has been made. I’m shooting for Nowon, I’m talking with a school now and waiting on their end.
I’m also shooting for my original city of Kwangju. It’s a little ways from where I used to live in town, but it gives eight weeks of paid vacation.
...
What the FUCK!
So I move back to Korea, and all my Tumblr friends leave? Okay that’s fine motherfucker!
...
Now that I’m drunk and full of Taco Bell…
As terrible as it may sound, we often played the “Penis” game at school. Even during school functions my friends and I would discreetly say “Penis.” You know the game… you gradually say “Penis” until the someone says it so loud the other person chickens out. I miss that game.
Overwhelmed with Boredom.
Bring on a bar or two.
My favorite bar in my hometown closed down.
I am kind of depressed about it.
Instead I will either not drink, or resort to Chilis. Gross.
I know no one in this town.
Why can’t I find a fucking job in Gwangju.
Why CAN’T I FIND A FUCKING JOB IN GWANGJU!
AHHH!!!
Ex Girlfriend Rant
Is it weird that my first serious girlfriend of about three years, fucked my roommate when I was in Korea on a study abroad.
My last girlfriend of a little over a year, dated a new guy and got him a job at my work when we were still working together.
I have some feelings for the first, and none for the latter.
What the fuck Jimmy. Go to sleep.
1:16am and 117 e-mails.
I cannot fall asleep.
For some strange reason, I just searched a particular person’s name in my e-mail inbox… and started reading. Now I feel sick to my stomach. I can see how fucking blind and stupid I was.
Fuck. I just read 117 e-mails.
I can be so retarded.
Tampa...again
Tampa never ceases me to amaze me. For a city so big, it be incredibly boring.
Last night was an exception. I hoped in my car and drove straight to Hyde Park, Tampa from Jacksonville. I hadn’t eaten anything all day, and I knew I was going to get faded really quick. Within the first hour at my friend’s house, I was drunk.
We ended up going to this house party, that may have...
IT’S TIME FOR A MUTHAFUCKIN’ ROADTRIP!

Natalie Portman
Natalie Portman, why the fuck did you get engaged with that guy? And you’re pregnant? Fuck! What are you Jessica Alba? That’s okay though, we can still party together with Akon.
Then I woke up.
You're right...
steakteacher replied to your post: Suyu Wants Me, But Do I Want You?
No, I would never accept this because of the guest restriction. Korea’s no fun if you can’t have late night guests, and 10pm is not even late by Korean standards.
Absolutely!! Late nights are awesome damnit! Even if it’s just a movie night or something more… I want my privacy and I want my freedom!

Suyu Wants Me, But Do I Want You?
The English Language Village wants me. It’s in Suyu about a 10-minute bus ride from Suyu Station. I had a phone interview tonight and they are about 95% sure they want me. It’s up to me. I’m a little worried. This is why:
CONS
- Restrictions on guests. Guests have to sign in at the front gate and cannot stay past 10:00PM. This doesn’t work too well considering I...
Suyu, Seoul, Korea
So, I’ve been asked to have an interview with Seoul English Village in Suyu… does
anyone know anything about this place?
Where do you live?
I dont mean Seoul. Where in Seoul? Where in Busan.
For example, I lived in Poongamdong in Gwangju.
I need ideas to see where I want to work.. and who I want to be close with..
UPDATE
I am currently in a Skype Interview with a recruiter. I’ve just been offered nine positions. Fuck, getting a job is easy when you make a video resume!
My Three Months at Nissan
Have taught me to be strong. It’s talk me how to talk to people, even those whom I’d never go out of my way to speak with. I’ve learn to overcome objections.
One thing I haven’t learned is to overcome a boss who is condescending. A boss who watched my every move. A boss who spent more time going through and following up with my work than his own. I don’t know...
I haven't updated in a while...
I haven’t really been to motivated to update, but for those of you who read… Here’s a bullet list of things that I have done within the past week.
My car battery died.
I shot my first hand gun; Glock 19.
Made the most money last month than I ever have in my life.
Traveled to three different strip clubs.
Passed out my business card at those clubs.
Threw up multiple times.

Gwangju
Last night I had a dream I was back in Gwangju. Things had changed though. The old Speakeasy pub had gone mainstream. It turned in to a multi-level club with a nice stage. There was line wrapped around the door. When I finally reached the door, a pretty girl stopped me and handed me a box of cigarettes and asked me for money. I questioned this and peeked inside. Then I left.
I also noticed...
Anonymous asked: What area of Seoul has the hottest girls?
“Nationality : Only USA (Sorry but we don’t hire Korean-American.)...”
– This is a line from a job posting for an ESL job in Korea. They don’t hire Korean Americans because they use American text books? Why the fuck an I applying again when I know I’m going to lose my shit over there. And why the fuck am I applying to positions in Seoul. I must be...
