My New Hobby

 

 

One reason I haven’t posted for awhile is because I have picked up an interesting hobby which takes up all my free time and most of my busy time. What is this hobby? Basketball? Tea collecting? Kung Fu? Badminton? Language Exchange? I am sad to say “no” to all of these. My little hobby is (drum roll please)…consuming large amounts of Crack™. I know it sounds bad, and it is. 

You see, Hangzhou has a Crack™ problem. It’s rampant. It’s widespread. Everywhere I go people are dealing Crack™, and not just any Crack™, but Prawn Flavored™. Who would have thought that Crack™ would come in different flavors? Well not me, old friends. Not me. 

And I’m not the only one who loves his Crack™. The other foreign teachers here are finding the Prawn Flavored Crack™ a little too hard to resist also. The other day one of my Australian co-workers here at ZUCC remarked to me, “I find Crack™ sort o’ brilliant, I enjoy it ‘specially in the refectory, but I have been known to sneak some in the dunny as well.” (He made the Trade-Mark symbol with his fingers to avoid legal action from some nosy, litigating Crack™ dealer snooping around.)

Well I had no idea what he meant either, but I think it means he likes the Crack™. Now that the teachers are enjoying Crack™ on such a regular basis, some of us are noticing a bit of weight loss. Who knew that Crack™ could help you lose weight too? I have seen New Jack City no less than 14 times, and I never caught that. 

The best thing about the Crack™, is that we can buy it in the campus store using our teacher ID card. Yes that’s right, in Hangzhou you can buy Crack™ in stores. They even have shiny displays trying to make you hanker for some crunchy Crack™. So if I don’t post anything to my Weblog for awhile longer, don’t worry about me. I’m probably just too busy with the Crack™.

Man sakes alive! Maybe I am missing the point, but looking at those photos, makes me damn envious of all of y'all. The apartment, judging by the floor that Greg is languishing on during his crack attack looks great. Jeez, I have been out in the sticks too long. Oops gotta go. I have to do another propagarda, sorry, I mean write another advertisement, with the FAO to get more 'foreign teachers' to come and enjoy the sulfurific atmosphere and the beloved friendly people here!

Hi, I'm the author of www.esl-blog.com and I'm writing about

http://www.tesall.com/bloglog.html the list of ESL / EFL blogs. They are

switching to an annoying format, where users have to create an account and

link back to tesall.com (I counted over 15 ads on their index page). From

their e-mail: The reason is simple: the top sites format is more engaging

and effective.



I don't think so. The top sites format ranks sites based on how much

traffic they bring to tesall.com. This format encourages us bloggers to

place ugly tesall.com banners prominently on our sites in order to get the

#1 ranking. Whoever sends them the most visitors (whoever makes them the

most money) wins and gets a #1 ranking. No way am I joining that list. I'll





make my own list of ESL & EFL teacher blogs.



If we all link to each other, we don't need tesall.com. Visit www.esl-blog.com for the list
