Street in Kuta, Bali
Well im in Bali and i haven't done a damn thing. I sleep as late as i want, wake to go get food, sit on the beach, and watch a handful of movies. I watched 4 movies the other day back to back to back. Any Given Sunday, Oliver Stone, Cameron Diaz, James Woods, Dennis Quaid, Jamie Foxx, etc. etc. What a great film. Thank you for Smoking with Aaron Eckhart. Really really good. Aaron Eckhart was nominated for a Golden Globe for it this week. Also 16 Blocks with Bruce Willis and Mos Def. And one of my holiday favorites, Elf with Will Ferrell. What a great movie. All in one day/night. As nerdy as you all, besides some(Ashton, Huck, Ben, Matt Sauers, and Shimmie), might think it is, it is a dream for me. Sitting on the beach, going out to eat amazing food, and watchin movies all day on big mats on a balcony near the ocean is fantastic. have not taken any photos here at all. Haven't really gone anywhere. Just being lazy after 2 months of busting my ass traveling over 3000+miles all over 5 countries(like it's really that hard). Only 9 days of lazy ness

Im sitting in a Internet Cafe on this street right now.
left. Gotta find work in OZ asap. After OZ im weighing options about what to do next. My visa is up in OZ in late June. If money is tight I will go to New Zealand and work for up to a year. Or a number of other things: Teach Engrish in Japan(good money), Go to Dubai and work for a production company(met a great contact that works in the same field there), go to Europe and find work in a Bar or in T.V. and film. Singapore for the same thing. Maybe even India to try out Bollywood. I have a decent resume(in Indian standards) and could probably find work there. Who knows. The world is out there and i gotta go find it. In OZ i might even go live on a farm and shear sheep for a few months. You get paid by how many you shear. GO ahead, make fun. I deserve it. Sheeps? Shearing? Love? Maybe? So i know all of you are viewing the blog so write some damn comments would you. All you do is view a blog, scroll to the bottom and post a comment under comments. It's very easy. Just do

it. So Merry Christmas to all you Santa believers out there and Christian alike. I will be on the beach dreaming of Egg Nog, Red Rider BB guns, and Christmas turkey. Send me some messages and if anyone wants to get outside those crazy borders of the US, please tell me and come visit where ever i am. You will all have a place to stay, but not all at once.

Okay, well, it started as a trip to SE Asia with a little OZ thrown in for good measure. Possibly even Zea Newland. Return to the states in a year or so tops. Now im out here and things have changed. Im in no rush to return to the States and quite possibly might stay overseas indefinetly. Next stop: Seoul Korea-English teacher. Then in July 2008 a trip through China-Nepal-Tibet-India-Africa-Middle East-Eastern Europe. Then by November-December 2008 head home for a month, shake babies and kiss hands, then head back to Korea to work for another year. So I guess by early 2010 I hope to mak... full info

The plural of sheep is sheep. And, while I think being a shepherd might be cool, I think you would get tired of shearing sheep pretty quickly. Well, Happy New Year to you. Looks like you've got many adventures ahead. Suggested read: The Alchemist by Paul Coelho. Short and easy to read but seems to fit your state of mind.

Hey hey grammer nerd. I have read the Alchemist and it is very good. Thanks for the grammer lesson. Unless the misspell was on purpose. It drives you crazy.
