Quote from: Menlyn on November 16, 2016, 02:39:41 pmPecan, regarding giving feedback for tests, my experience is somewhat different. The Korean co-teachers often ask me whether an answer is right or wrong, and then the head teacher proceeds to ignore my opinion. Kim Teacher: Menlyn, a student wrote this, is it correct?Menlyn: No, I'm afraid not. KT: Are you sure? There's no way it can be correct?M: Yes, it's definitely wrong. KT: (In Korean to other teachers) We're still going to mark it correct.I've had the oppositeCot: Could this sentence be grammatically correct?Me: Yes, it's not common, but it's not strange either.Cot: But we didn't teach them this Me: Ok.Cot: I don't think it's correctMe: OkCot: I'm going to mark it wrong, is that ok?Me: You're the one who wrote and gave out the test, it's up to youCot: Are you sure?

Today is not going to be a good day.My stomach is bothering me slightly. I don't have diahrrea or constipation. But my stomach and butt hole feel slightly uncomfortable/hurt in that I need to drop a deuce kind of way. The only toilets here are the squatter toilets. I never learned how to use them properly. I don't get how one avoids peeing on one's pants since they are by your ankles as you squat to release the brown dragon. Do I take my pants off completely? Do I aim the pistol manually with my hand?Oh no. I hope I can make it through the day and get back to my western toilet throne at the crib.
Everything was going swimmingly this morning and then BAM! My shaving cream cap falls into my toilet and gets sucks in and now I'm stuck with a clogged toilet for the weekend...
why is all the food in this country always prepared in the laziest way possible? ordered a shrimp pizza from 59 Pizza last night. of course the shrimp still had their tails on. on a frikken pizza. tried to just eat them with the tails on but the tails were too hard to bite into comfortably. ended up having to pick the shrimp off and eat them by themselves. urgh.

B) Koreans eat the tails.
Not sure how one would soil themselves, unless they fell backwards.Biggest problems for a man is not tea-bagging or dipping the stick.You do it once, and you'll never do it again.
What?What part of the shrimp do you eat, the head?As far as I know, most people eat the tail.The shell, however, is a different story. I've seen people from certain countries eat shrimp, shell and all, while others prefer to take off the shell and eat the meat.
