for a long long long LONG LONG long time its been my dream to go to korea for starcraft. i always practiced thinking that if i went over it would be as a progamer. funny how things turn out. i got invited over by IEG (the company that owns eSTRO) to do some commentating for their english language website (www.scforall.com) after they saw some of my commentary on TSL/Ascension.
i'll be flying back to the US on october 1st (wcg usa w00t), but i hope to turn this opportunity into some kind of career in esports while i'm over here so that i can come right back.
but wow its literally a dream come true. i just got here wednesday night, and korea is already so awesome. the culture is so different from usa. EVERYONE needs to visit korea at least once before they die. i dont think ive stopped smiling since i landed. my face is starting to hurt.
oh btw they did a video interview of me. i hope to god that all the akward embarassing parts got edited out rofl.

a real HUGE HUGE HUGE THX to all the people who liked my casting in Ascension + TSL (and tl.net staff for letting me cast TSL ofcourse!). i absolutely would not be here otherwise!

OMG I'm so jealous :D

With IEG/Estro boycotting the last Gomtv SL I wonder if we will actually see a Tasteless & Artosis duo. Maybe kespa and gomtv have worked stuff out. Maybe they will allow it.
But if not Artosis, who is the person Tasteless mentioned they are trying to ? It could still be some random Korean with native level English?
Im vegetarian also. I always imagined going to Asia would be hard. Anyway, pretty cool. I always imagined this would happen some day.
Artosis playing courage just for fun? Maybe interesting.

You gonna train to become a progamer twhile your out there?
Best of luck!!
