Drench Man Kissed VN Girl Here... Me Sad...

She is so beautiful. This girl is sitting near me. I'm falling in love with her now at this coffee shop. She has a beautiful laugh & a heavenly smile. She listens to people & she is down to earth. She probably loves children. She looks like a cute angel. She is perfectly perfect for me.
.
I was looking at her. I was watching her talk to a female staff here. They talked for an hour or so. It looked like a fun conversation. She would say some things to the staff in very fun ways. I tried not looking because I'm busy checking my Facebook, but my eyes keep lurking to her charm. Her haircut is cool & everything. Everything was good until I saw a French man come to her & kiss her on the lips. I don't know if he is French, & it is all French to me anyway, but it sounds like he has a French accent. As soon as he kissed her hello, my heart tore up into thousands of pieces, reassembled, & imploded (exploded) like the Death Star in Star Wars. Right now, I hear them talk with some kind of French-style English to each other. I don't know what is happening, but this is another reason why I'm single. I can't be like happy for them.... I'm angry and sad and like a turtle with no shell... I feel super jealous, but I also feel that these emotions inside me are not helping me. These kinds of things has happened to me many times before as I'm one month from being 31 years old. I'm an American in Vietnam & I've seen girls & guys kiss but it still hurts me when I see it. Very confusing. Very terrible for a bunch of reasons. I feel rejected. I feel that nobody wants me. Vietnamese make fun of me as well. They tell me about all their foreign friends who go to Vietnam and get a girl friend in only a few days.
.
Fat ugly foreigners go to Vietnam & get girl friends in less than one week & I've been here for over 3 years already nonstop, continuously. The irony & the confusion is terrible. I kind of want to stay single more because I don't want to become something bad in the future. I compare the way people interact with me with the way they interact with other foreigners. It is different. They treat me like I'm a monster. They treat old people & my peers like angels or something.... I'm going to try to not think about girls... my New Years Resolutions needs to be "HATE GIRLS" more.... & people always think I have a GF but I don't, grrrr...... I need to stop falling in love with girls.... I have a job to do.... I'm here to help people and not to satisfy my lust and thirty shades of Oatmeal.

She Liked Me Or Worked There...

A beautiful girl was following me. As I walked around, she was behind me smiling. She asked if she could help. I decided to say no thanks. I didn't want to waste her time but I really wanted to be her friend. I think I know where to find her & I think she likes me. She is tall & beautiful. I think she is perfect for me.

.

She has a beautiful smile & sparkling eyes. I was falling in love with her. I decided to run away before I fell too in love with her. I'm pretty sure I'm not gay. But I had to leave before I break her heart. She had the full package & was everything I have ever wanted & more, but I may not have what she wants. She probably just wants my money. That is her job since she works at that phone store near the park. She actually probably doesn't like me, but I wanted to believe she did. I was looking at different phones that I may want to buy & saw some foreigners speak French or Russian or something. I wish I could speak more Vietnamese to her. Better yet, I wish I could tell her that I know how to speak the language of Love. She came just in time for this new year of 2016. I would just go back to see her, but I will probably fall in love again with the next girl I see. That is another reason why I'm single. I think I tend to be too easy going. I tend to fall in love with every girl I see or talk to. My dad kind of has the same problem. Mentally, & emotionally, I got to put my game face on......

Learn As You Dance...

Learn English while you're dancing your way to school, to work, to English Centers, shopping centers, classrooms, beaches, forests, & to your way to success, to the top of the ladder.

.

Dancing makes me feel mobile, flexible, happy, & as free as a bird. Playing piano makes me feel more in control & creative. Laughing helps me put things in perspective. Playing basketball makes me feel magical like ninjas. Singing makes me feel ageless & timeless. Teaching helps me understand the world better. Drawing helps me tell my story. Writing helps me remember it all & share it with the world. No pain, no gain. Life is an adventure. Life is lovely. Be more healthy. Get a second opinion. Get a third opinion. Get as many opinions as you can as the more the better. Take the time to understand how the world works as you learn more English as a second language (ESL) or even as your first. Never quit doing what is good. Seek after universal truth & morality as oppose to relativism which justifies murder for humanistic subjectivism which sinks. Take the time to love life & to be healthy. Don't get hooked on medicine, even if your doctors give them drugs to you.

Health Secrets 2015-12-30 AC Q1 SG...

Being healthy can be fun. Wake up early, smile, pray, drink water, and exercise for at least five minutes. If that is easy, try thirty minutes. Try to exercise once a week. If that is too easy, try twice a week. Eat some fruit & some delicious oatmeal.
.
The secret to longevity is in more natural, long-term, pure, eternal, remedies, foods, as oppose to drugs & medicine. It takes a balance physically, mentally, emotionally, & spiritually. It takes laughter & the fruits of the spirit. It takes, patience, integrity, character, love, discipline, wisdom, hope, & more oatmeal. Eat different colors of the rainbow. Eat food that are colorful. Eat food with different colors. Don't just eat food that is one color. For example, many people may only eat foods that are white, yellow, & green. But they should also eat foods that are red, purple, black, brown, etc..... please get a second opinion from different doctors when diagnosing. Doctors can help but they cannot always help. Doctors don't know everything. Ask other doctors for advice. Ask different kinds of doctors from different places. Read books. Ask different kinds of people. Google it. Do research on medicine, remedies, solutions, herbs, self-helps, autobiographies, history, encyclopedias, answers, and so on.....
.
Please eat different kinds of food each day. Many people only eat a few kinds of food in their diets. Some people eat too much wheat, junk food, & sweets. We should eat more fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, & salmon. Please eat less meat, except for fish. Other than fish, eat less chicken & other meats. Please avoid pig, crab, & animals that eat junk. Help others in your life. Good people can be healthier.

Still In Vietnam....

People think I'm not in Vietnam. Many people are asking me where I live. People are asking me to come back to the country of Vietnam. I didn't say that I left. I did not leave. I said that I might leave.

.

But I did not leave. I live in Vietnam right now. I'm still here. I continue to live here. I never said when I would leave. I talked about how I might go soon but I never specified when that would be. People can still call me and see me at or near the 23/9 Park in HCM. I'm still going to try to make a new visa for myself somehow. I'm talking to people about the details. I'm an American. I was born in the year 1985 in the United States of America (USA) but moved to Vietnam in 2012 which was 3 years ago. I have been living in Vietnam for over 3 years now & Vietnam is my 2nd home & I loved people & I love Vietnam & I love the Vietnamese people & Tet.

.

Tell everybody that Joey Arnold, the Original Oatmeal, is still living in Vietnam. Tell your friends. If I have to go to Cambodia or something, then I'll do so but not yet..... thank you for reading. Have a good day.

When you're lonely, find a pen. When you're lost, look around. When you're confused, try to laugh a little. During Christmas, I feel depression, but close my eyes & coach myself to remember the pain for the gain.

.

Suck it up. Take it all in. Take deep breaths. Take a break sometimes. Write down goal outlines. Draw. Sing. Dance. Watch films. Play some games. Find people to talk to. Write down how you feel. Record your voice. Make videos & capture the moments when you feel terrible because the sun will rise someday. Rainbows will appear after the storms. Learn the lessons. Feel what you must feel and remember that emotions are not bad. We can feel bad but that does not mean we are bad. We can feel fat but that does not necessarily mean that we are fat. We can feel rejected, irrelevant, incapable, ugly, slow, dumb, unable, undesirable, bad, and other things, but our fate and destiny shines brighter than stars.

Joey Arnold is on the Vietnam Blacklist...

I cannot live in Vietnam because I can't get a new visa because I'm on a "Blacklist" according to agencies. I could try to go to Cambodia to make a new visa, but the "Blacklist" may prevent me from returning to Vietnam ever again. Depressing.

.

My name is Joey Arnold, an American, born in the year 1985 in the United States of America (USA) & moved to Vietnam in 2012 (over 3 years ago). I have to leave Vietnam but I'm scared. I don't know why I'm on this blacklist. I don't know where to go. I don't know how long I'll stay on the blacklist. How do I get off the blacklist? What did I do wrong? Where do I live? Leaving Vietnam is like jumping off a cliff. I'm willing to go to Cambodia if people invite me to teach, to help, somewhere, maybe. I need some kind of backup plan before I leave. I want to try to come back to Vietnam if I can but I don't really know if Vietnam will ever let me back. I need help. I need money. I need a bed. I need food. I need work. I need purpose. I need a wife. I need a smart phone....... I'll do my best to find something to do in Cambodia.... please help if you can.... come visit Cambodia with me if you can. Merry Christmas.

Cam2 in 2015

I was told to go to Cambodia to make a new visa for Vietnam because I have to maybe. I was told that there is a bad report about me at the immigration department or wherever that they issue visa extensions (add months or more time to visas). I'm not sure what the truth is. I don't know what the reports may say. I don't know what to do or how much to spend. I don't know if I'll be able to make it back in Vietnam later. I'm also busy with classes too. I may have to cancel some of my classes while I'm away maybe Friday. I may need to buy a letter to give me permission back in Vietnam maybe or something.

Homeless Aussie Granpa in HCM...

My Vietnamese female English student gave me money & said, "Buy him a sandwich." I bought it & we gave it to that homeless Australian grandpa banker at the 23/9 Park near Highland & the pond in HCM. He attempted suicide. She asked him, "Why don't you go back to your country?" He replied, "Because this was the last thing I wanted to do." Fall in love with a Vietnamese goddess model & live happily ever after like they do in romance novels & fairy tales
.
My name is Joey Arnold of the USA. I talked with him for three hours today from 08:00 - 11:00 AM apx, this Wednesday morning, the 16th of December 2015, a day after the world premiere of Star Wars​'s Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens​. I need to awake more in life. She left because he kept on talking. I'm trying to tell her I'm sorry now (apologize). I was trying to understand his story. He said he supported a 34 year old Vietnamese woman, her children, parents, & bought them a house in a village near or around the Mekong Delta. I thought Cat told me she was from Hanoi. Maybe Cat told me about another story about a different foreigner
.
He told me that she kicked him out of that house that he bought for them & stole all of his money. Maybe, she's a gold digger. Maybe, he needs Viagra. Before that, she would hit him when he tried cleaning. Culturally, women do the cleaning. However, he didn't want to just sit there & do nothing. But now, he is alone.... his son gave him $20 but that is it even after all he did for him. Grandpa asked me for money for beer or for a smoke. I said no. But I mentioned this story because it is one of many. People run into problems accidentally & on purpose. Sometimes, it is our faults & yet it is not always & not completely our faults. We look down on beggars, spam, sellers, & ads. We tend to think that poor people have bad karma. We make up excuses for procrastinating from compassion, generosity, & grace. We talked about prostitutes, trafficking, & how greedy Catholics are....
.
For me, I want to help people more and more.... but how do you help people? That is a good question........ you know that it shouldn't be a question of if we should help but rather a question of "HOW?"

How to STOP SEX?

Park Sleeping

Joey Arnold slept at the 23/9 Park for some minutes around 2 PM this Sunday afternoon, the 13th of December 2015. Park security said to get up as I alid there with my head to the backpack. I asked why in Vietnamese and he kept saying the same things. Others translated what he said into English for me. He didn't explain why. He just said that those are the rules. After some minutes, he left & talked to others or at least to another cop who probably knew me and who didn't come to me.

TUAN Travel SCAM...

Tuan Travel Company said they can extend my single-entry 3 months Vietnam DN Business Visa (not DL tourist) for an additional three months for the third time. I have an American passport since I was born in the year 1985 in the USA. My social security number is 542-13-4324. I reentered Vietnam from Cambodia in March 2015 with my current visa for Vietnam. Tuan extended that visa twice already for about $160 USD.
.
Tuan said they could extend my visa for a third time for the same price last Friday, the 4th of December 2015. About an hour later, the female agent there called me back & said there was a problem at the embassy. Maybe she said the wrong English word. Maybe it's not really the embassy where extensions are made but she said that word, "Embassy" either on purpose or accidentally. She said it would $210 actually. A similar thing happened in 2014 as well at a hotel, but that's another story.
.
My name is Joey Arnold. I'm an American English Teacher, Tutor, actor, writer, artist, missionary, and so on. I help people as much as I can.
.
Friday, instead of giving her $210 in American money, I gave a total of about 4,740,000 VND in Vietnamese Dong money.
.
Today, Friday, the 11th of December 2015, she texted my phone saying that the "Police & Consulate" said that I violated laws. However, she hasn't told me what those violations were. Either she doesn't know because they didn't tell her or maybe she never actually talked to them in the first place, maybe. I am not exactly sure what happened. I do not know what the rules and lawsw are completely. But I do know that people have been getting extensions. I use to get extensions. I first came to Vietnam at 12 PM noon, Thursday, the 29th of November 2012 to the Hanoi airport. In August 2013, I exited to Cambodia for a day & reentered that same day. I bought a one month visa at the border as I came back to Vietnam in 2013. In September, I renewed that one month visa and turned it into a three months visa. I extended that visa about six or so times until March 2015. After that, I made my current visa in Cambodia. My current visa was extended twice. That means, my current visa extended from 3 to 9 months. I was trying to extend my visa for a third time. I've done this before in 2013 and 2014. I extended my visa more than three times before.
.
My current visa already expired on the 9th of December 2015. Right now, as I'm writing this, it is 4 PM, Friday, the 11th of December 2015.

Breaking The Law In Vietnam?

My travel agency said they cannot extend my visa. They said that the police and consulate claims that I'm violating Vietnam law or something. I do not know what is happening. I am not aware of any violation. I do not know what all of the domestic and international laws are. They said I could extend it. Many people said I could extend my visa. Currently, I don't know what to do.

JA Joey Arnold is FA, Forever Alone, at an age of 30....

I'm FA, Forever Alone, still, at the age of thirty, but some say they don't believe me while others say of course. I've hidden in photos with girls. People see me around girls & assume that I got at least one girl at least once in my life. Sadly, it's not that way.

.

At this coffee shop, I saw this Vietnamese girl with a face of like an 8 year old but a body of a 20 year old. She was kissing a man some minutes ago. It's two in the morning (02:00 AM) right now and this is Saigon. I try my best not to think too much about it. I try not to care. I try my best to stay focus on my life, my missions, my goals, but it's still extremely hard. I still have those feelings of jealousy or something. I made a video for April Fools Day 2015 that says I'm gay. But I'm not gay. But people seem to say or think that either I'm gay or I'm a player with girls all over. Neither is true. So, why am I writing this?

.

I'm writing about being misunderstood. I've experienced not being understood all of my life, but you have dealt with it as well. People have thought wrongly about you as well. What can you do? Please be patient & stay true and loyal and calm and dedicated to integrity and character and pereseverence because nothing else is better than that. Please don't seek vengeance and please don't give up. Please don't compromise your destiny and your role on earth. Stand tall and be strong. Don't sell your soul to the devil. Be who you were born to be.

YouTube or Porn?

My video got about 40 hits or views on YouTube.... but that same video uploaded to Facebook got over 400 views. Both videos were shared about the same time on my Facebook but it seems that people are scared of viruses & anything that comes from outside of Facebook. There is a lot of spam on the internet & people are confused about it. Sadly, people simply avoid things that might be dangerous.
.
A video from YouTube will say YouTube or something in the player box. You may also see an address link that will take you to the correct URL address of their website that we all trust. Viruses and porn and bad things will be linked to unfamiliar websites and addresses. You can hover and discover where the videos and links and information and other things are coming from before you watch or click on them. Education is fundamental. Don't live in fear of the problems out there. Learn a little bit about it & take action & be in control. Try your best each day to learn more & to be better.

Return to USA? Homesick? No, VietnamSick

Will you return to your country for the Lunar New Year? No, because we don't celebrate that holiday. People ask me this question all of the time. Do you miss your family? Yes. Will you go back? Yes, maybe, but Vietnam is my family as well. Are you homesick? Yes, but if I travel back to the America, then I'll be Vietnam-Sick. I like Vietnam. I moved to Vietnam in the year of 2012
.
I've dreamt of world travel since the age of eight, to help, act, sing, teach, dance, volunteer, educate, entertain, inspire, aid, learn, explore, live, love, experience, & encourage people all around the world. Now, I'm 30 years old & have been living in Vietnam for over three years now. What are your dreams? What are your goals? I want to help people. More specifically, that is what I do and that is what I continue to try my best to do more of. I was born in the United States in 1985 in Oregon. Why don't you live there now? Because I want to give back to society. I want to contribute all that I am and have from America to and for people of other countries. That is what I do. I help people who are trying to live in America. How do you help people move to the USA? I teach English which helps people pass immigration interviews, obtain educational scholarships, & prepare for employment endeavours. I help people pursue their dreams & careers through developing life skills. I'm full of passion, not anger. I'm not an expert at anything really, but I try my best to share my skills, knowledge, charisma, gifts, & experience with others. Some of my hobbies includes basketball, writing, reading, speaking, listening, sports, video games, computers, technology, acting, filming, directing, art, design, singing, dancing, thinking, debating, board games, movies, comedy, joking, bikes, questions, mysteries, learning, having fun, ice-cream, oatmeal, Jesus, character development, telling stories, Batman, piano, guitar, making up things, cartoons, Star Wars, Turtles, Rangers....
.
Why don't you work at an English Center? Because I'm trying to create my own language school. I've worked at schools & other places before in the north of Vietnam & also in Saigon as well. I've been teaching, counselling, & working with people (like children, especially), since the year of 2003. I have years of experience. I studied it in school as well. Sometimes, I disagree with how some schools teach English. Some schools are more focused on more traditional methods of learning which proves to be mainly ineffective. They focus on keeping students coming back. They milk-out lessons & raise tuition while diminishing actual uninterrupted time with real native English speakers & foreigners. They focus on grammar more than communication & pronunciation, which is a problem. I work & volunteer at a center or classroom now & I'm doing other things as well

Circle K Staff called the police on me. I bought noodles. I taught them English. They said they liked me before. That day, they were busy with work. I tried to say something to them in English in order to help them with their English but they took it the wrong way. They told the police I was stealing, harassing, & doing bad things at that Circle K store, the headquarters, in District 4.

Here is an outline & summary of my first three years in Vietnam, a southeast country under China & east of India, Thailand, & Cambodia. My name is Joey Arnold, The Original Oatmeal, as in Joseph Scott Arnold as seen on my birth certificate, born 1985, February 11th, Monday at maybe about 7 AM, at the only hospital in Forest Grove city, Washington County, Oregon state, United States of America USA, to parents mother Marilyn Kathleen Morehead & father Donald Melvin Rasp Arnold.

Breakfast & A Movie

Breakfast included rice & egg. Refreshments at Bubble Tea consisted of normal tea & strawberry tea. The feature presentation was (or is) The Walking Dead show (or movie). I'm a loyal customer at this tea shop, this Tra Sua Hoa Huong Duong, near the 23/9 Park, McDonald's Ben Thanh Market, Nguyen Kim Center, & 17 Saloon. It is relaxing here. Almost no customers here. More seats for us.
.
I'll be relaxing here at this tea shop today until maybe 5 PM in the evening. Today is a sunny day. Was at the park. Ask somebody how they are & that person said, "I'm tired." I replied, "Me too."Do you like strawberry? Yes, I do. Oh, me too. Are you single? Yes, I am. Me too but no thank you.

Treasure Today

Please cherish life more. Live life without regret, not failure. Don't be afraid to do what you must. Get up & make things happen. Live your dreams today. Reimagine & readjust your expectations to meet with actual reality. Be open to potential but be active to the present as well. Be current & alive today, for the present is a gift to humanity.
.
Love those around you & turn the other cheek. Learn English with passion. Learn & study everything with dedication that is both complete & unrivaled by distraction & remorse. Yesterday was my third anniversary in Vietnam. My arrival to Vietnam was at noon on the 29th of November 2012, on a Thursday. I learn that I should continue to be who I am & not be somebody else. I learn to focus more on what I can do & not too much on who & what I am not. Some people may love me & some may hate me. These are basic facts that I should not deny or forget. I should not let jealousy for marriage consume me. I need to focus on forgiveness, grace, mercy, & loving neighbors, family, & even enemies. I must sacrifice my life each day for others. I love people. I came to Vietnam to teach people anything & everything I can teach. I came to Vietnam because I love Vietnam.

Saigon Balo Backpacking Hostel: 203 Pham Ngu Lao, Q.1, TP.HCM

"We go or he goes," said several European dorm-mates about me this morning after hearing me vomit (throw up) in the bathroom around 8 AM while they were sleeping instead of getting free breakfast on the rooftop which that Saigon Backpacker's Hostel provides there on 203 Pham Ngu Lao Street in District One of Saigon. I was also using my laptop for a few minutes around that time as well. They said that I didn't clean up the toilet, but I did.
.
They told me I had to leave because my bed was booked (reserved). I was still booking it myself, actually. When I went to check-out (leave that hotel), that female staff told me they complained about me. I asked her "What if I complained about them?" Please try to follow my logic. I try to stay logical. Try to imagine having two guests in a dormitory. They both paid money but if they both complain about each other & both get kicked out then that hotel would get no money from them (1 - 1 = 0). We submit to money and to complaint mentality. We listen to complaints more than truth. We try very hard to please family, spouses, teachers, bosses, customers, neighbors, strangers, friends, parents, enemies. In doing so, we compromise/decline from eternal & absolute character & integrity defining morality. It's a dangerous position to accelerate in. It is a deadly momentum shift/slope/cliff & a poison that betrays our own human nature of who we are and what we aspire to be.
.
I was vomiting after drinking champagne/beer the night before with three of my students at a bar nearby. They invited me & I drank maybe less then ten glasses or cups. We had some delicious rice, noodles, & meat, but also some seafood that I dislike. Happy Teacher's Day on Saturday. Today is still the 18th, that is Wednesday. I was drinking Tuesday night. But I usually don't drink like my father whom I admire for his basketball, comedy, patience, wit, brains, humility, care, meekness, integrity, love, hope, joy, strength, wisdom, skills, speed, perseverance, money, meatloaf, ice-cream, heart beat, family, Woof, ancestors, & work ethics. But I don't want to copy and imitate the mistakes & bad things of my dad, like that of verbal abuse & moral compromise & other questionable idolatry and demise. I don't like feeling sick from drinking beer and I do not need beer to help me relax. People drink to get in touch with their inner-child which I already know pretty well. People open up more when they are intoxicated (drunk). But I'm already there. When I drink, I maintain control of my body, but I was hitting my head in order to maintain that control. I kept control of my body & refused to change my behavior to act like a drunk loon. I believe in being who I was born & destined to be through & by my own spirit rather than the spirits of wine.

2007: Travel Abroad With Bags

I wrote about travel in 2007 and also before that. I was born 1985 in Oregon, United States. Two weeks after graduating high school in 2004, went to New York for college, and then went to another in 2006 in West Virginia, and then Hawaii in 2007 and then to Vietnam in 2012. I wrote in 2007 about how I may travel the world. My name is Joey Arnold Oatmeal. I wrote about needing DVDs disc for my VHS to DVD Attic project that I was and am still working on as always. I also said that I really want to live and travel the world with just two suitcases:

War OSU.org & Joey Arnold Autism

Here is a quote from a random person. He wrote about me. What he said is not accurate. I was teaching at a pagoda. They told me to stop. They did not like me. They were jealous. They were making fun of me. They threaten me, Joey Arnold Oatmeal. I look crazy. I act crazy. I'm an actor & I think it is funny. People are easily fooled. People can think bad things about me. People believe lies about me. People are easily tricked. I may have or had autism. Some people are more creative than others. I have like more EQ than IQ.
.
People say I do bad things. People say I spam, troll, PR, advertise, complain, yell, lie, and stuff, and so on, and whatever, but I disagree. I believe that write and I want to have some freedom to speech and press. I'm not saying I have rights or the permission to say what I want without consequences and stuff but I do have reasons for why I do what I do. I try my best to entertain, educate, encourage, inform, have fun, and make the world cooler and better with one Oatmeal from Oregon at a time.

Yes you were dismissed, then you had a public argument on Facebook and a dispute with the owner. It went on for a few days, then you deleted all the conversations. You were told to stay away from other places too. You have annoyed so many people. Are you even aware of the harm you cause?

Joey Arnold Duncan James I do not delete things like that. I volunteered. I taught there. I lost my bike. They gave me a Christmas gift in 2013. They surprised me with the present. They gave me a certificate. They asked me to teach there. I taught adults & children for around six months or more there
.
They said I can sleep & eat there. Sometimes, I did but I did not live there. Visitors complained about me. Some of the staff told lies about me to get them to turn against me early in 2014. They made promises to me. I asked them about it & they were indirect & they never answered my questions. They promised to give me a second gift or monthly gifts. Some of them may not have liked me but most of the students & staff liked me until they began to blackmail me about my visa being expired. It was not

They began to threaten me with violence. They were going to kick me out. I wrote emails to them. I used translators. Some of them helped with translating. I tried asking them questions for many months but they were not direct. My main question was about if they really did promise me something or not. They can change their mind & undo their promise but I was hoping that they would admit to that. I wanted them just to simply say, "Sorry, we were going to give you a second gift but we changed our mind."

People do not have to like me. That is fine. I am just asking for honesty, the ability to confront, to be naked, to be transparent, frank

If all this occurred, why display the link to their school tonight? You always twist events to suit you. You have caused so many problems there. You ended up in a police cell after fighting with the police in a 24h Circle K store, as you were spending all night there. You even demanded that a young checkout girl should be fired. There is even a video of you resisting the police. This is why you have had to move so many times. You give foreign teachers there a bad reputation.

Joey Arnold Duncan James, I was not in a police cell. They went to Circle K & tied me up. They did not take me to jail. They let me go. They said I cannot go back to that one store. I can go to other ones of that same franchise. I did not fight the police. It was not a fight. They threw me to the ground. I did nothing wrong. I bought noodles. But they lied to the police about what happened. Police are very bad in Vietnam. I suggested that she should be fired because she committed a crime of being unethical. She lied about me. She was rude to her customer. The manager yelled at me & may have been in loved with her, which clouded his judgment. I did not have to move because of that. I had to move because landlords didn't register me with the ward committees. The homeowners didn't have licenses & permission to host foreigners. They were breaking the laws. I was following the laws
.
Duncan, you are a bad person because you say things without sufficient evidence. You have hearsay accusation. You only have parts of the story. You are missing the bigger picture & the finer details of what happened. It is a complex & long story. They told me I could eat at that store. Other people sleep at that store. I was not the only people. The staff sleep at that store too in the middle of the night. I was not breaking laws. I was blending in
.
People only see what they want to see. You ignore the truth and you focus on what you want to focus on. I have made videos talking about what happened but people refuse to listen to the truth. They look right past it. They turn a blind eye and deaf ear to it and they drown it out with other things. People do the same things to Donald Trump

Bé Nhi Because you was rude to them, that's why they fired you, simple as hell.

Like · Reply · 1 · 1 hr

Joey Arnold Bé Nhi, they were rude to me first. I confronted them in a video after they abused me. I did not get the abuse on video & they deny it. It is my words against their words. You can believe in what they say or you can listen to my version of the story. If you were not there, then it's harder to know what really happened
.
If you choose just to believe them, then you are becoming racist, stereotypical, sexist, bias, & closed minded. You lose your ability to make proper judgments about character & events
.
Older Buddhist Vietnamese come to the pagoda to worship Buddha. Sometimes, they saw me sleeping there. They started complaining. The head monk said that he liked me but he was in Texas &/or other states in the United States. So, they began to lie to him over the phone about me in order to get rid of me before he came back to Vietnam. Plus, Mr. Cuong went over the head of Ms. Dung to allow me to have my own classes there without consulting her first. He was suppose to get permission from her & he skipped that procedure. When Dung found out that I was teaching there without her knowledge, Cuong was quick to deny knowing anything about it. Other staff parroted his actions in order to make me look like the bad guy. They did their best to turn me into a criminal. The videos that people see of me is only part of the story. People refuse to believe that I would have a good reason for yelling at them
.
I yelled at them because they were wrong & they treat foreigners in a very disrespecting way. People do like me when I am smiling but people hate it when I confront them about certain issues. Over time, people begin to hate me because I don't turn a blind eye. They can't silence me with coffee money

Joey Arnold Duncan James, I write about my life in details. I can write what I want. I believe in the freedom of speech & press. I want to voice my opinions. I go after the truth. I confront evil like George Bush Junior did with terrorism or so he said. I want people to learn from history. I write about the problems so that people can see it & learn from it. We can use it for good somehow. At the time, I felt scared & I thought maybe I was going to be thrown in a dungeon. I wrote about it & made videos as the police came because I thought I was going to die & that was going to be the last video I ever made..... I wanted to say goodbye to the world.... & then people can find out what happened to me..... that is if anybody cared.... if people don't care, then they shouldn't watch videos like that with weird skinny white Harry Potter boys with glasses complain like Napoleon Dynamite
