Day 14 of Phuket

At oshisi's
oak and his mommy:)
na-eh(my host aunt) and am


Hello Everyone!!! today was the start of my 2nd week of school! and also my first full week, oyyy! anyway this morning was the usual hott wait, with the national anthem and prayer out in the field. after that i had math, which i was sitting by poom, sim, wang, mai, and toyoshi, they taught me some new words, and finally had thhe guts to ask me if i was single,haha it was a fun class. After class i went with sim poom toyoshi peao and his gf Plang to the teachers lounge, they needed to talk to our math teacher after class, so i went with them, and ended up being late for class and running back with peao and plang which is okay, bc teachers dont care if your late here at phuketwittayalai, which is a help to me, because everyone knows how ontime i am! lol:P so after that it was houseworking class(which right now for our class is done till october) probly my favorite class because in this class we dont do anything, and we have time to catch up on hw and for me get to know my classmates better also learn some new thai, today in this class noung taught me how to write my name in the thai characters, which they write really small, and im a big writer so ill have to work on that more, but i can write my name, even if its big!! some of the girls, mai gig plang and noung taught me the elephant song, which is cute! haha ill have to practice it tho:P last week oak attempted to teach me how to tell time, which when he did it seemed so difficult, but today the girls taught me and i got it right away!! :) yay. After that it was lunch time, most of the time the class sits together , and today was one of those days, which was cool bc we all had some good laughs which we always do in this class, plang's theory today for me was for everyone to talk to me in thai first, and if i didnt know what thier saying, jus say it in english the best they could. it worked and helped me alot, ill be fluent in no time, the writing& reading is the difficult part bc of the characters. After lunch we had thai lanuage, usually it inside the best airconditioned class probly in the whole school, besides the offices and teachers lounge(s) of course!, but anyway today my teacher decided to have our class outside(theres tables and chairs all around the school, we were at the back of the school at the end of the field) so thier was a nice breeze, our teacher told us to write a essay about sport week at our school, and he let me write in in english, i had alot to say, but not enuff paper, i finished before everyone and when bing may poom koon, and them saw me done, they were alll cheering and yelling oyyy and wooo ahaha surprised i was done, and knew what to write, everyone else took a little longer i guess bc they do it every year so its not so amazing like it was to me! haha so our next class was sweet, our teacher was absent and i guess there wasnt anyone to replace her, so we had two free periods of hanging out and chatting, lots of fun. koon and a few others asked for my number and i got thierS:) yay! some of the boys wanted me to show them how much thai i knew so i had to talk to them in thai, they were really happy and excited i was learning thai so quickly. After that it was on to physics, ugh so boring i could hardly keep my eyes open, first of all i had no idea really wat she was saying, and the fact it was physics. after the lecture, we did another experiment with water, the boys made it fun!! haha. after the experiment the class had to do an assingment the teacher didnt give me one, so i was jus kinda sitting there looking orver my thai, and she said i could leave early so egg called me and i met up with them at the front of the school, and we sat down at the tables, they were having something to eat, so i decided to go acrosss the street with egg and get some icecream and oreos while he got some pop. after that my host dad was there to pick us up, so we went home, and they had some company over again, that i ment before. there was a guy from autralia that he said hes been here for seven years and still doesnt know thai, he said mines better haha. anyway after that am wanted to go to oshisi's( the japanese restraunt, i went to saterday night) all u cant eatt:) anyway the food was awesome again, but i saw oak, who wasnt in school todaybc he had to work, hell be back to school on friday! anyway i finally met his mom, she is so nice, and very pretty szoai!. After the restraunt we went to bussiness store(kinda like business depot) and am bought some paper and ink for the printer, while i saw some sweet phuket postcards for 8baht each! (Pad baht) very good deal!:P anyway after that we just came home and now im writing this, so im probly gonna watch a movie and hit the hay,
miss u all so much
