I bought notebooks for students in one of my classes. Simple and cheap notebooks. The most interesting thing about these notebooks is the epigraph on the cover:
don’t be sad
is not so bad
take a breath
and be glad
Doesn’t that brighten your day?

No. It make me miserable. You heartless bastard.
Singapore is shiny. Food! Stuff! In shops!
That’s almost as good as the Nepali poster:
“Life is oyster and I, with sword, will open.”
Wasn’t there another one?
Something like:
“Home is the place where they have to let you in?”
Sorry about getting robbed.
That was heartfelt, Andrew. That was this teacher I met in Birganj who’d written a book of English chants. An excerpt:
SEASONS (excerpt)
Rainy uncle is dangerous.
Bring landslide and flood
Crops grows very fast
Parasites Suck the blood.
Thanks, Andrew. I know you care. Don’t bother with Scott says. Maybe we should compile old tests from the Nepali school system. It scares the hell out of me how the kids get set up to fail…
Hi Tony,
Did you get my last e-mail?
Is that one still good?
When you coming back this way?
Talk to you later.
Tim
Got your forward. I don’t usually bother reading or opening those. Sorry. Yeah, the ironkeep.net account works just fine.
I’ll be back the end of June/early July. Still have yet to set a date.
