Racist slogans and English words on t-shirts.

Sorry if this offends any Irish people, I do not condone racism in any form...

A 6th grade girl, in one of my classes, had a T-shirt on today which said on the back>>>>>>


This takes nonsensical English words on T-shirts in Korea, to another level>>>

A racist T-shirt that the wearer has no idea what it means...

I would love to know how that ended up being on sale in Korea... Usually these t-shirts are mass produced in China and shipped around the world and usually feature words such as Acid Jazz, Happy banana or something misspelt - or as previously posted - "I want to make love to you in New York" -  equally inappropriate for an 11 year old girl...

It is undoubtedly just a copy and, like the wearer, the producers probably also have no idea what it means!

Do people still tell jokes about the Irish?  When I grew up I heard a lot... I guess now people pick on other races...

Amazing things ... #2 Military face mask

Amazing Things - #2

Number 2 is a face mask (of the beauty treatment type) in a military camouflage design...

 I guess this is for the Korean Alpha male who is concious that he may damage his masculinity but still wants a clear complexion...  Get a facial AND still look MANLY!!!

ESL GAME: Dice roll speak


Divide the class into teams. 

Write a 6 item list the board. e.g.

  1.  I get up at 7.
  2.  I have lunch at 12.
  3.  I come home at 3.
  4.  I have dinner at 8
  5.  I take a shower at 9.
  6.  I go to bed at 10.


The team that rolls reads the sentence that they rolled. 
The other teams should ask the question e.g. What time do you get up?
Cross out the sentence for that team.
If they roll a number that they already crossed out the next team has their turn.The first team to cross out all their sentences wins...

post lasek 5 days

5 days since my lasek and I have been back to have the lenses taken out. The lenses were to protect and help healing...  It was a bit sore when they came out and my right eye was a bit itchy afterwards.

Sight is getting better but I hope that by next week it is fully recovered.

Here are some pictures
