| something a blogger wrote.. I haven't really written about it much, but I did come to this country to teach English (among other things). I signed up for a TEFL course (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), and it has been quite an interesting experience so far. On probably my third day in Chiang Mai, I met Jake Harvey, the man who was to be my TEFL trainer guy. He came to the Park Hotel (where I was staying) with his girlfriend Katie L'Estrange, who I had exchanged many emails with (as on the Teach in Paradise website she claims to be some kind of executive part of the organization, when she is really just his girlfriend), and I had no idea what they would look like in person. He was a 40ish year old crazy looking motherfucker with a ponytail and a motorcycle obsession, specifically Harley Davidson motorcycles. She was like 22, cute with reddish hair, freckles, and no tits or ass. Anyways, I was still feeling pretty shitty from the awful stomach problems i got on the flight over, but I was happy to see them because they were really the first falangs I met in Thailand. Within a few minutes he told me I was a lot smarter than the other people who were going to be in the course with me, which was flattering to hear, but at the same time made me think I was going to be studying with a bunch of retards, and in fact, I was. There are 3 other kids in my class: Dave the anorexic British hippy who weighs about 80 pounds and only likes smoking weed, playing the guitar, and complaining about "capitalism, man." Also present is his "mate" Tom, who like most British people (at least according to the stereotype) looks like he is unaware of the invention of the toothbrush. Lastly, there is Jason the Australian fuck who is completely out of his mind. Jason is a complete moron to say the least; I would honestly be surprised if he finished middle school. I have no idea how someone like that can teach English when he cant even speak it himself. Since I have met him, I have maybe understood 25 percent of the words he has says. In other words, I understand Thai better than I do Austrenglish. Over the last week Jason (or Jace, as he likes to for some bizarre but not entirely surprising reason) has told me that he has killed dogs that were sick by beating them to death with a wooden board, that he used to catch lizards and cook them in the microwave, that his ass itches a lot and that he thinks he has worms, that cow ****s are popular in australia (in stupid and impossible to understand aussie accent: listen mate, you cut out a cow's ****, dry it out, and then anytime you want to have a go you put some vas (vaseline) on it and there you go), and about 1 million dumb other things. I have lost all respect for Australia because of this kid.

| I like this entry.... Despite claims on Teach in Paradise's website about classes being taught at a "school," all of our classes have either taken place at Jake's house just outside Chiang Mai or at a fucking bar. When we have class at the bar, it is not uncommon for Jake to pound a few drinks before he starts "teaching" us. Actually he is a good teacher, but it is hard to respect someone who can't even stay sober during the 3 fucking hours a day he is getting paid to teach us. Getting to his house has been at times terrifying, at times hilarious, but never dull. Jace the cow **** fucker has a motorcycle, so he drives to Jake's house, while usually Dave and Tom and I take a tuk tuk (3 wheeled taxi), which is pretty fucking funny, because there are no other tuk tuk's on the superhighway, only real cars. Riding in one of those things on the highway is kind of scary, because it feels like a strong gust of wind could flip the fucking thing, to say nothing of the fact that most tuk tuks can't top 20 miles an hour, while every other vehicle on the highway is doing 60 plus. |
