Day 2 of phuket


sawasdeeka everyone! today was a busy day for me, i woke up arondd 8:30ish and ate some breakfast and got a shower. i tryed some fruit called ngor very good kinda lookes like a sea eurchin on the outside and a grape in the middle (you eat the middle part). so the day started off with me goin to my school, phuketwittayalai to register. it is very big and a population of 3000 studnets grades 7-12 (m1 m2 m3 -m4 m5 m6) i met a english teacher very nice and i soon will choose the courses that i will take(i start school august 7th). after that we went and got my uniform the colors are blue and white, a white shirt with my "thai name" eliza maipanich and the name of my school, also wearing a black skirt, shoes and white socks. after that we went to a thai seafood restraunt, by the marina(very god food) i ate a little baby squid! ahaha after that we went to my host moms sisters hotel on karon beach very beautiful, we didnt have time to swim but i got pictures!. i also met this dog , that survived the tsunami, a hero in my books!. after the beach we went to small mall to buy stuff for the monk tmr when we go to the temple(monks dont work or get paid so thai people give them food, water and shampoo and etc to show thier respect. while i was in this mall i saw oak workin at macdonalds, i missed him. so we exchanged numbers so ill will see him soon:). after this we went home and, got ready for the rotary meeting which u need to wear formal clothes like a shirt or pants, no flipflops tho.!!! haha um the meeting was very short compared to back home and they made me feel very welcome and i liked being there. imet a girl kathy from germany, who has been here for 2months(im jealous she cant speak thai, hoepfully i wil soon. After the meeting tanit(last years YEO) and manapeen(my YEO) and also borronit another rotarian in the club and air my host sister , all went out to a restraunt for japenese food, very good but different. alot of uncooked seafood, it tasted good anyway:P.now its 12;12 and i will go to bed soon, untill my adventures tmr,
