Britishness?

This is a little worrying - I mean, since I am British!

However, I have been reliably told that I am actually Indonesian, not Spanish, although I might be Taiwanese by now ;-)

Counting on CNY

This is something I was originally loaded with at my school end of semester meeting. I knew that "cheee" whilst holding up the "L" was a set pose for photos, along with two fingers and "yeee" but I had no idea that junior highu school girls all come up with their own 10 poses to do at foh-to-a-ke-lu-ba (those passport photo booths where you can take a series of photos with your friends to different backgrounds)

Well, I got loaded again, this time at Chinese New Year... but luckily I got revenge on my nemasis (vita...)

Gotta love the guardian

More probably, the English don't care enough to be phobic. For many of them, the idea that Britain is more than simply a greater England is relatively new, the words England and Britain being used interchangeably by English historians well into the 20th century.

The first line is precisely my answer to why we dont have a negative nickname for canadians or aussies...

Christmas In Taipei

10:48 AM Xmas and Lee don't exist on the same plain.......and even if I did care about Xmas, there would be no Xmas for a Canadian in California
me: hahaha
ya, try taiwan
Lee: light reindeer and Santa trotting across lush green lawns is just wornfg
wrong
me: ahhh, you need the snow i guess
Lee: HA!! ...................
When I wa in Taipei!........ Me and a couple teachers were cruising around the streets looking for a noddle stall.......
10:50 AM we didn't find one, but we DID find a holiday shop selling decorations, and they're ad outside the store.......
was santa on a CROSS!
jolly ol' saint Nick being crucified!
right players, wrong play
10:51 AM me: heheheh
omg
i gotta fnd that place
10:52 AM Lee: retard that I am, I didn't have my camera with me
me: that beggers the question... hoiw did they position rudolf?
Lee: ha!

So as you may be able to tell from this, xmas and Taiwan go together like chalk and cheese. I'll post something up later about what little of this sacred holiday we managed to celebrate, without sacrificing too much!
