How I did it
How to teach english in Korea
It took me
6 months
It made me
frequently pissed

How I did it: Both times I found work on the internet. There are a lot of people that need to learn English overseas, and the job market is there.That being said, shop around for a teaching position you feel comfortable with. I suggest teaching in a public school or university, but that is just me.It may take some time for paperwork/jobs to come through, so take some teaching classes. If you're still at university, an extra semester or two of education… Read how I did it…

How to see alice cooper live
It made me
shocked

How I did it: This happened back in 1987. I'd never really heard of Alice Cooper and went with a friend. Not knowing what to expect, I wore jeans, a white Izod, and a brown button down sweater. Needless to say, I stuck out like shit on a white fence.Anyway, the music was OK. Read how I did it…

finish painting my warhammer 40k army (read all 11 entries…)
"just sad" 7 months ago

I feel really guilty about not completing this goal yet! Between moving cross country twice, teaching, and working to restore a an older home, I’m not getting much Warhammer done.

I’ve built and cleaned models, but have yet to complete an army. I am now rededicating myself to this goal.

This weekend I will complete, sand, and prime 3 Leman Russ tanks, 2 Hellhounds, 1 Sentinel, and a Griffon. Once these are done, I’ll then sand and prime 25 Imperial Guardsmen.

It isn’t a complete army, and it won’t be painted, but it is a start. I want 1000 points of Imperial Guard painted and tabletop ready by 1 June.

We’ve stated a small production company and yesterday was our first projects. We’re doing a small documentary about the contents of an old home’s attic and how it relates to the community.

Check of Emerald Grail Productions to see the latest.

Arizona in January 12 months ago

This goal kicks off in January.

Elite Racing added a Seattle Marathon and Chicago Half Marathon to the list. The entire series. There are now 9 races in 8 states.

Should be cool.
