    All About Me

    I'm also originally from India, though I moved to Canada when I was 5 years old. What do you do in Thailand? I was in Bangkok over the past summer doing a CELTA course. LOS is a great place, lucky you!!

    All About Me

    Well where do I start..... My journey into the realm of Asta Hosts started with me googling a free hosting provider w/PHP support online. I found a few but asta host seemed to be a good fit. I'm a Canadian teacher who is currently living in China and you guessed it, teaching english. I live in a small rural city in the middle of China. I've been here for about 2 years. It's a huge change from my fast-paced urban upbringing. There isn't that much to do here other than gamble. (mahjong) or surf the net. This city isn't very well developed though we do have a McDonald's and a KFC. What drew me to move to China was a change in lifestyle and a change it is. I find it both rewarduing and frustrating at the same time. My students are amazing, highly motivated, organized, helpful. The frustration lies in the beauracray involved in getting things done here. You need to go see 10 people to get a simple form signed. Overall though, this place has taught me the added virtue of being patient and humble. Many of the locals here survive on 1/10 my salary and are happy to take me out for luch or dinner. If any of you have a chance you should visit Central China. Avoid Bejing and Shanghai and see a real slice of life here.
  4. As for me the Mac platform is better. I find the software support better in my field of work. For sound production work, mac wins hands down. I recently purchased a mini mac for our son as we already have most of the software needed. I find the only real issue is the RAM. We had to do an upgrade to 1GB of RAM to get in working at a decent speed. (My son is into DV editing at the moment) For the price it beats windows based PC's. It also is pretty and small.
  5. This stuff has been going on for a while, here in China. Sterilization as well as a "One Child Policy". Many people scream "Human Rights Violation" but it's their form of population control. The US is becoming a Pro-Christian fundementalist haven..
