Tunnel vision

Two guards, chatting, blissfully unaware that they are being observed. I sight in, the cross hairs finding the first guard. I wait for the shot, my finger resting lightly on the composite trigger. The cross hairs give a small jump with every heartbeat, I change my breathing to steady it out. There it is, a loud report splits the night, as the first guard falls. I quickly sight in the second one before he can recover from the surprise of the first shot, A second shot rings out. As the second guard falls, I see a bright flash and every thing goes black.


YOU HAVE DIED!!!!

Continue? yes/no



Doh, glad I saved. These video games are getting too realistic.

Posers

You've seen them before, people who pretend to be something they aren't so they can fit in. The hard core rapper wanna be who would wet himself if he ever was in the ghetto. The activist that jumps from issue to issue depending on the cause of the week. These people have always rubbed me the wrong way, something about the inherent lack of confidence. I don't see what is so hard about being yourself.

Ghosting

I feel like I'm in between worlds at the moment. Caught between Korea and the United States. In just under ten days I leave Korea, possibly for good, to head back to the States. I really don't want to go back yet, but have no choice in the matter. Right now I am in two worlds, and belong to neither.

Beat down and more than a little irate...

Know I have been lax in posting recently. With all the confusion and chaos going on with my staying/leaving Korea, been burning the candle at both ends. So far I have learned that yes I may stay or go. I'm getting no support from my parent company, who refuses to release moving funds until they absolutely have to. It also seems that the people who decide about my contract could not pull their collective heads out of their asses with a tow truck. Hopefully things will be sorted soon and can get back to having a life.

33 years....

33 years, I now have a year for ever country I have visited. Guess I need to visit a couple more before next year.

Stressed

Pretty stressed out at the moment. Waiting to see if my contract in Korea is getting extended. The Koreans say they want to keep me, but are haggling over price. The first deadline was the August 1st, after negotiations the new deadline is the 15th. If no extension goes through, I fly out September 1st. This means my entire life is on hold waiting for a decision. Now I have to start setting up a move, schedule a flight home, find a new job, and a place to live all of which will have to be able to be canceled at a moment's notice.

I need some rum
