Omlettes and rice

I am having a nice relaxing Sunday. Last night was a fun party night with the other PC trainees. We all live spread out bc of our homestays, so a bunch of us slept over at a friends. Another friends family had an event that was either a funeral or a donation of a buddah to a temple, or both! Lots of Monks, lots of food, lots of drinking. I saw a buddah smoking a cigarette for the first time, and he was sitting on the back of a motorcycle when it happened. I didn't have time to snap a shot unfortunately. Then we all gotlost biking back to my other friends house. Sometimes I feel like I'm in 7th grade. Especially bc some of my friends had to lie to their "parents" about where they were spending the night. Anyway, it was lots of fun. And I was able to have my favorite Sunday meal: an omlette. Only I had it with rice. I actually think I prefer my eggs that way now. I am getting more and more Thai by the minute. No homefries and toast unfortunately.

The past two days we were all leading a teacher workshop to help local teachers improve their English classes. I was in a group teaching about pronunciation. Basically we gave them ideas to get students hearing and speaking English in more. We did the same 45 minute presentation 7 times and if I got a lifetime full of Hokey Pokey. But how can I complain when I have a job where I get to do the hokey pokey.

This week will be pretty routine. Thai language lessons in the morning and practice teaching in the afternoon. My Thai is going well. I'm psyched about it!!!
