She said they weren't human?

Jul 27, 2009 by xoxo | Posted in Military

I was talking to my boss about what's prospering on with North Korea and she said something about how she would be very worried about it if we went to war with them and I figured she meant because of nuclear warfare but then she said she meant that south east asia is a distressed place and that wars there are like hell and the people are all monsters.

She said something about her dad fighting in Vietnam and how he came back and hated everyone who was south east Asian and said they were not anthropoid.

She's scaring me because I have 2 friends in the Marines and I realllly don't want my boys over there.. :/

What did she mean by that?

Insomnia- Can living abroad 1st time be the cause?

Jul 27, 2009 by Al | Posted in Other - Health

I've been living and teaching English in South Korea for 5 months now. I slept dainty for the first 2 months. Then I started getting insomnia and it got worse over the next month, to the point at which it took 6 hours to tumble asleep some nights. Also I would constantly wake up, usually every 1-2 hours. I saw a doctor and he prescribed some medication. It helped and sleeping has slowly improved a small, but I'm still not sleeping like I was back in the U.S. and still tend to wake up often in the night. I've never lived let alone traveled abroad before. Has anyone had any sort of know-how like this? Do people ever get insomnia for months while living abroad? Any similar experiences or any input on this would be appreciated.

What is the cheapest way to go to South Korea to get a Student Visa for Japan?

Jul 27, 2009 by TheToad | Posted in Japan

Prospering to Japan on a tourist visa first, then going to South Korea to get the student visa as soon as I get the necessary documents.

But what is the cheapest way to get to a Japanese Consulate or Embassy in South Korea and back to Tokyo in Japan?
Japan - South Korea - Japan.

Crohn's disease. please help?

Jul 27, 2009 by Waffle. C | Posted in Other - Diseases

hello.

well its a hanker story, here goes.

i moved to new zealand with my son and wife around 7 to 8 years ago.
everything was fine, but after we'd sent him to his aunts descendants in a different town for the holidays he had a strange limp in his walk.
we thought it was strange so we asked him why he was walking like that. (we being my woman and i). he said his anus was hurting/preventing him from walking normally. So as anyone would we took him to see our regular doctor. He seemed to give us some pills and some demulcent. Soon after my a small hole had appeared a few centermeters under his scrotum. it was apparently was leaking some sort of puss and by that dated the medicine we were using had no effect. So after some advice from my colleagues we took him to a bit more advance medical center. they told us that this is no conundrum and could be easily fixed. we were very relieved. but again, it had no effect. we were getting very impatient with these doctors. So during his mid-year holidays my missus and my son flyed over to south korea to a reliable hospital (not medical center) and got an operation. My wife and i thought that soon after he recovers it would all be over. but the doctors found something something in his enormous intestine. The hospital themselves were not sure of what it may be saying it may be crohn's disease or something else. it was very disappointing when we heard this since we had our utmost commit in this hospital. but reguardless they were going to give us medicine because they thought it may be one (still unsure.) my wife who was there at the time was very unsure of what to do. So she took our son to an even larger dispensary and my son went through another intestine check (not really sure what the examination is properly called) and finally we got an suit. Crohns disease. BUT when the doctor asked a specialist in crohns disease the doctor said that he was unsure of this one unimportant spot so we had to schedule another intestine examination. it is due on the 30th. The kmedicine they gave us is the same as before. my son seemed to go through excruxiating pain drinking something 500mils of that medicament. 8 times he had to drink it. He was about to give up by the 4th. but he didnt because it'd be a waste to stop then. (he's the type that doesnt like to give up and hates other people looking down on him.)

As a progenitor im wondering if we have to go through this....
i know this is very selfish, im letting my emotions get the better of me.
but it was the first time seeing my son showing this much pain in the arse, even as a kid when he broke his arm he didnt cry one bit.

to other parents and or doctors.

What should i do?
this all started to happen about 1 year ago.

Is my dad out of order?

Jul 27, 2009 by T | Posted in Family

My dad was in the military and was posted to south korea before I was born. He already had a helpmate back in the states and he didnt tell her about me until I was 23. i met him for the first time when I was 23 and didnt really know what to say to him. He never phones me or sends me any filthy lucre.
