To the three people and the cat who visit this site:
First off, thanks. I’ll give you people some beers, and as for the cat, how does a bowl of warm milk sound?
I’ve written a new article for Lost Laowai entitled A Few Signs your MA in TESOL Program is a Bad Choice, but on a macro level, it’s about grad school — specifically, who should pay.
I’ve given some thought to doing an MA in TESOL. After all, I taught it in China, liked it, so why not earn 5,000 RMB a month instead of a mere 4800?
All I need is a golden ticket.
Luckily, I found one, via a Google ad on a message board.
Read the rest here.
As for why I never update this site, two good reasons. I don’t like talking about every minute detail of my life. And besides, my life sucks. Who wants to hear about that? I once read a blog, written by a girl I knew. She accidentally dropped her cellphone in the toilet, and went on for over five pages about how horrible she has it. It has since been my goal in life not to be anything like her. So, no bitching about any “problems” I have.
The better, and truer reason is that I am working on a lot of stuff. Any leftover energy I have goes to articles for Lost Laowai or other expat sites (i.e. sites that have an audience). While I do hope this changes, for now, I have very little energy to devote to this place.
None of which of course means you should not visit each and every day. :)
