Slice: The Beginning of the End of the Middle

...and the End of Anonymous

50 Dinh Cong Trang (click to enlarge)
clockwise from upper-left: phuc, euan (freebird), triet (fat black), rinda, alison, mike (mr. nostarwhere who's currently nostartraveling with al), tiana, dave the rave, mat, and shiao ti (phuc's "little sister")



those are the faces and i promise to get out more stories. that last post was partially written before i'd left, but everything from here on out will be written retrospectively about my past few months in saigon. but don't worry, there's still so much to get through:

-tripping by accident in mui ne (can't remember much, but there are some before pictures...)
-oktoberfest
-an incident in the classroom involving "stepping over the line"
-i'll still need to scan some hilarious student artwork from almost a year ago
-rolling adventures (including freak outs (2x: one, the most infamous, the other, i'll probably write about next), and not being ok to teach (2x: halloween and dave's b-day), and phuc's ("little sister"), and the k story)
-a week long thing with phuong's former best friend
-a much more boring thing with a girl i only talked with because i wanted to improve my vietnamese
-the totally unclimactic conclusion to the phuong saga
-last and final sentimental observations about saigon: the ice deliverers, xe om's, "mechanics," whatever else comes to mind

i'll probably start with one of the rolling adventures (so many), but if you'd rather hear about something else, lemme know. and of course i'll try to get more pictures up as mike's been gracious enough to post so many of his, as have alison and rinda.

one more thing: since i want this blog to remain as a document to my time in saigon, and not say, the platform for the (admittedly impressively) cryptic ramblings of a certain anonymous poster, as of my next entry, the comments will be set up so that i have to approve each one before it's posted. so if you have something to say to the 10 people who read this blog, i suggest you say it now.

Oh shit!! My cover is blown. One of my own students turned me in.. Stay calm, just continue pretending to be an english teacher teaching slang. [Insert sarcasm here.]

Where is AS'sboy Drew? Ty?

Why don't you include the entire cast of AS'sboy High?

You can probably intimidate the students by threatening them with their Visa being revoked in the US.

The plan did not work. I did not become angry enough to attack you fucks in a foreign country. I already knew I would have been imprisoned. Nice try.

Back to the matter of an almost dead baby.

300 PU Visa's. Definitely need a top government official to approve that many Visa's within a one year period.

You three were stupid enough to have an online journal and include your pics.

Just wait when you three go home to New York.

You three barely make a midnight snack. Between the radio, television, movie and government fucks, you three are not a satisfying meal.

You three will give a new term to Bad Mojo On the Go.

You can't find a more foulmouth, insane and imperfect person then myself.

I can see the attraction.

No need for improv.

Anyday now, I am hoping someone will do the right thing. If you witness a murder attempt and do not report it, you are just as complicit as the person who committed the act. These fucks are whacking people left and right.

I will wait patiently.

Better now in this life than the next, if there is a next for you.

Tick, tick, tick. As the time approaches when you stare into the abyss, what will you see in your reflection?

To be or not to be, that is the question.

You won't find what you are looking for when you run with a flock of AS's.

Lose the herd and go into the forest alone.
