Lindsey

From Marc B.
Hellllooooo.
All I can say is I wish I was there to see you bust up the coffee table. I lost it when I read that... I for sure would have tinkled on myself if I was there. Glad to hear that the older/wiser Miranda still knows how to have fun!!!
Take it ease and say hi to Mark...
Marc
Response: Marc!
I feel ten years older after being here....but at least I don't look it. Don't worry about the coffee table thing...my friends just bought a video camera so now there won't be a moment lost of all of the silly tricks I play on myself. Take care of yourself C-Marc
Love,
Miranda

HI Miranda;
I've been thinking, why don't you and Cortney team up and submit some articles on Korea on teaching English there etc. and submit it to some magazines? You could do the pictures.
Miss you.
Love, Grandma
Response: Hi Grandma,
That truly is a great idea. I'll ask Court and get back to you on it. Meanwhile things are going well....hopefully the same with you! I miss you....and think of you often.
Love you,
Miranda
From blake
just checkin' in! all is good!
From Margie
To the girl in the purple bathing suit,
Thanks for the shout out on your website...Now I feel like a celebrity.
I'm currently at Karolyn's in BC and it makes me think of you and all the time that you spent in these walls. I will talk to you when I'm back in Ontario!
Love,
The Girl in the Black Bathing Suit.
Response: Hey there.
Now I guess I know who my secret admirer is....IMark had nothing to worry about all this time. I miss Vancouver madly and I'm jealous that you are there but also so happy that you get to see what it is truly like.
I wonder is the Margie shrine still in effect on Dunbar Street? Say hello to all of those guys and I hope to move myself out there sooner than later. Love you,
Purple Bathing Suit.
PS I still haven't figured out who the Pirate Peniuses are.
From Lindsey
I've been doing my part and checking out the site more. We'll have a party when you are number one. Until then, take care.
L
Response: Thanks babe,
Maybe at the party I could make an ass out of myself and fall over everywhere....
No but seriously.
From Blake
You're number one! You're number one! (or at least I hope you will be soon...ha!) Glad you had a happy birthday! it was a wonderful evening! we need to go out dancing again soon lady...take care of yourself dude
Response: Yeah. Dancing soon. Next time I won't fall all over the floor. I think you are teasing me with this number one business. Hopefully it happens though. Are you going to the green tea festival this weekend? It sounds really cool...anyways talk to you soon. Love your neighbour,
Miranda
From courtney (van)
hey sweetie! you and jackson sound great!! i love your stories and photos. hey, what did you do to hook up your teaching there? i'm thinking of getting my tefl training this summer with tommy in van, and then heading off somewhere in the world in september or so. do you have any advice for me? any sites to check out????
i'm going home to van for the summer soon...should be exciting and scary to go home after 2 years! are you going back this summer at all?
miss you both and would love to see you!!! xx courtney from vancity xx
Response: Hey there Courtney,
It's so crazy that you've been in Scotland for so long. I'm sure you'll get back to Van City though and it will almost (almost) be the same.
For the teaching thing, now is definetly the time to do it! The pay is really good and there is a really high demand right now because next year all of the public schools are going to be hiring English teachers. You should most definetly look into it. Two months off paid!
I won't be back to Van this summer but maybe next spring? You guys should come visit Ontario soon. Bring Geoff too. I can't believe he's getting married! Everyone is growing up. Talk to you soon.
Love from the East,
Miranda.
From Karolyn
Happy Belated Birthday!
Sorry for the late birthday wish..I was thinking about you on the 11th but was in the middle of buttf--k Idaho (really...I was in the woods in Idaho) and couldn't reach you. I am back in Vancouver now, so give me a call when you get a chance. Thailand sounded fun...it doesn't take you very long to look like a beach babe, I am sure you are there already.
Karolyn
Response: Hey there.
Hope your trip went well and you got all of the things you were looking for. I will call soon it's just that I'm on a different schedule and every time it's good for me to call you it is like 4 o'clock in the morning your time.
I got a pretty bad sunburn while I was in Thailand (right on my rear end as usual) and since I have been back every Korean stares at me. They like to have white skin so they don't think I look like a beach babe in any sense. Ah well! Talk to you soon. Love,
Miranda.
From Vanessa
hi sweetie, it seems like you guys are having the experience of a life time, keep up with the stories they're amazing, keep livin the high life, its a great way to find yourselves. PS happy BIRTHDAY GUYS say hi to Lindsey and Ryan for me. if you guys ever come back to T-bay yous all havea place to stay, if I'm still living here....Missin you guys deeply Vanessa
Response: Hey you!
Long time no talk. Hope Thunder Bay is treating you well. Sometimes I really miss that place. I'm sure we will come to visit once we get back. I'm guessing I'm not going to find you at the Apollo anymore though!
Take care. Love from the East,
Miranda.
From Shipreck Dick's
Wicked pics. Just lookin' at them from Johnny's in the Tub. Po and Scott's birthday!!!! Good times. Kel thinks you're awesome. Don't go near her. She'll do something crazy. We miss you. Wish you were here.
Love,
The Pirate Penises
Response: Well there.
I don't know what to say to you because I have no idea who you are. There are so many Pirate Penises to choose from. It sucks that I missed that birthday party but I'm excited to call and swap stories with them. Love from the East,
Miranda
From Scott
Wow, your on holidays from your great escape! I'm kinda busy taking care of my 14-month old son, but not too busy to have a 2nd baby on the way in December. Don't let anyone tell you that the herb lowers spermcount...
Have a great time, you never know when things will change. You will remember these adventures during the quiet, settled ol' lady times.
Nameste, Scott
Response: I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ARE HAVING ANOTHER BABY!
Too much changes while I am gone. So, I might need to come home soon. Wow. Good job Scott. Hopefully it's a girl and you could name it something like Miranda.
Keep it real. Love from the East,
Miranda
From Danimal
Hi Miranda,
Nice pics! Sounds like you're having a great time out there. I miss you guys a ton. You're making me really jealous and I want to quit my job and travel the world :)
dan
Response: Hey Dan,
Anytime you want to quit your job and travel, I'm there for you if you need a travelling buddy. I'm really just making it look way better than it actually is. It won't be long till we get back.
Love from the East,
Miranda.
From MOM
I don't have much time and I got dissed for the brevity of my last message but I'll leave one anyway. I hope you had a good birthday and have fun this weekend at the party. We miss you guys oodles. love mom
Response: Hi Mom,
Don't you worry I was only joking. We miss you guys oodles and noodles too.
Love you,
Miranda.

). Much Love to you and yous!
Response: Thanks Geoffers,
I will always come back to Big Bad Van City....it is my home away from home. I'm pumped to check out your site. I'm hoping that I'll find an old skool " I touch myself" video. Love on the rocks, Miranda.
From Jer
Hey Miranda...
This site is pretty cool. I have been checking up on you but havn't wrote a message yet. So, I felt that tonight was my night. It seems like you and Mark are having a great time, Sarah and I are jelous. Have you tried the dog soup, it's probably good. Sarah and I are looking forward to getting up to the cottage but it just won't be the same without you guys. Can't wait to have you back...love the pics, keep posting them.
Give Mark a good slap on the ass for me.
Jer
Response: Jer,
I miss you guys like nuts. I think that Mark and I will fantasize all summer long about swimming in a nice cool lake with you and Sar bear....think of us while you tell creepy ghost stories.....and Mark's ass is gonna hurt!
From Courtney
Damn I'm in some hot shots on this site! Can't wait to see you on saturday for grrrls night! Don't get too wasted tonight!
love you lots!
Response: Yeah you are looking good. Thanks for supporting me on my way to number one! You made my weekend by throwing a girls night.
From Brent
hey miranda,
the pics are great as is dog soup! this is my delayed message to let you know i've been checking you out...on planet ranger.
dublin is great! if you ever make it european way, we should meet somewhere.
all the best...brent
Response: Thanks Brent....I'd do anything to make my way over to Ireland! When are you guys there until? If it doesn't happen then you guys should think about meeting up with us somewhere in South East Asia for a little beach action....we're going at the end of the year...I think. All the best, and if you had a blog I'd check you out too ;)
From Danny E
Hey there..fellow planetranger.
I was just in Korea a week or so ago and had a great time. I'm traveling all through Asia and will be in Thailand at the begining of may. Maybe we could meet up, if you're interested and or there..
All the best with your travels and i hope you make it to number 1. Although my goal is to stay number one for the rest of the month :)
Lata Dan
Response: good to hear....That is very strange because that is exactly when I will be in Thailand! It's possible we could run into each other...and thanks for the encouragement.
From Laura & Blair Hagman
Hey Miranda,
Your pictures are great, looks like you are having a blast in Korea, and travelling. Have fun exploring!! Tell Mark we say hello
Laura & Blair (Lakehead GIS)
Response: Hey guys,
Thanks a ton...still down under? Mark is looking into going to teachers college there so you'll have to let us know.
From Karolyn
Hey Miranda,
Your pictures look amazing. I expecially like the "speghetti" one and the one where you and some guy are in a circular mirror. I can also pick out your more drunken photos because of your cute drunk face. I would love to come and visit you there...
Anyways, keep updating this site, it makes for a really great way to avoid doing work!
Miss and love you!
Karolyn
Response: Hey I knew if anyone was going to appreciate the drunken photos it would be you. I'll be sure to take many more just for you....I'm still waiting for the pics of Scooby Doo humping Cyndi Lauper........Come and visit! We'll have a great time...I'll take you to the beach, the bar, and a kareoke room....will be your fav. Love you.
Miranda
From Scooter
Why haven't you been updating your site? I'm interested...very very interested.
Response: Hey there....
I'm glad to hear you are so interested...from now on I'm going to bring it up a notch and almost even address it to you...I need your site address too though, for a little healthy competition. Love,
Miranda
From Becky
I am glad that you still have me on your email list! I love to see Korea. The kids in the photos... oh how cute!
All the best in your adventure.
Take care, Be safe
Response: Thanks Becky,
Hope things are going well for you guys. Are you still in Ottawa. It's hard to keep up with people when you move so much...you take care too.
From Bill Squaggle
Is this a blog? If it is, then I guess this is the first blog I have ever been to. Who are you? Are you really in Korea? You seem to have a lot of friends. Good for you. I think your website could use a little more political commentary.
Response: Political commentary? I don't think I know you but your initials are B.S. that is the first thing I noticed about you.
From Paris Jenn
Hey Mir (lol)
Paris Jenn in case you had two Jenn's writing to you :) Your photos look amazing!!! I'm sitting here in my office WORKING and wish I could be traveling!! My new job is going great and I got a promotion. Nich and I are doing good and working on the house....but that hardly seems fun in comparison to your travels! Keep posting the pics so at least i can dream!! tell Mark I said hi. Are you guys ever coming back?! If you do we have a ski boat now and we went wakeboarding every other day last summer! It was a blast. Reminded me of stoney lake memories...
much love, Jenn
Response: I would have known it was you because you wrote MIR! Don't worry life here isn't always so spectacular. I CAN hardly wait to get in that boat of yours. As soon as I get home I'd love to plan some sort of getaway.....Mark's parents live in Sauble too so we could always put in there. Take careof you and Nich and those puppies of yours. Love you.
Miranda.
