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" 2 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.

Check of Emerald Grail Productions to see the latest.

run the Rock & Roll Heavy Medal series in 2009 (read all 3 entries…)
Arizona in January 7 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.
