Camping last weekend: Photos

So here is the only photo I took from the camping trip. The quality of this photo and many more are soooo bad I'm considering buying a digital camera. Any recommendations on make and model?

[See "Camping today" for previous blog]

Camping today.

Yeah... I'm going camping somewhere in Taiwan. Not sure where as yet.
I'm leaving behind my sick flatmate. Shame she's all ill and working on a Saturday. This girl has balls.

She's making me watch all the Friends episodes and now I'm quoting them. Poo.

Another Year......

I've decided to stay teaching in Taiwan for another year. Crazy or just procrastinating? Not sure.
Also I have had conjunctivitis. Nasty infection in my eyes that makes you want to scratch your eyeballs and look like you've been on the booze.

The teachers room.



Some crazy kids in one of my classes.





Lucky sunset shot in Yuanlin.

Lorraine Bye Bye

Today is a sad day. One of our friends and my flatmate is leaving us for pastures new. She's heading back to Port Elizabeth in South Africa. The carrot haired beauty has been with us for over a year and now she's leaving to pursue her acting career.

Lorraine and I at the Hip Hop night in Neill's bar.
