... lovely roomate Erica and promptly went to sleep. <br><br>The next few days were a blur as I met many people and simultaneously forgot many names.  Along with meeting so many people we had meetings upon meetings ranging from how to teach, to where to travel, to Thai language (of which I picked up none and still have not made much progress.) After day 2 I felt like I had been run over by a bus as jet leg had also set in. Soooo  while everyone else went out in the ...

... morning runs. At like 6:30am. Yeah, if you're his friends, be impressed folks. I am. And ya know what's REALLY erie? He LIKES them. I know right? Where's Rod Serling?<br>8) SO humid. SOOOOOOOO humid. Did I say that already?<br>9) Drivers here are batshit out of their gourds. The lanes and direction of traffic all seems to be a suggestion more than a rule or law. If driving on the left side of the road doesn't work for you, that's cool, ya know man? Just do what ...

It has been a busy two weeks. The kids and I are slowly adjusting to one another and I'm whipping them into shape- they are almost there! I have one more week to get them where I want them- that was my initial goal at least. Teaching this year is going to be a whole nother ball game. This group is extremely bright and capable. We are skipping chapters in math and moving on to the more challenging. I am starting summary writing and they ...

... we were running late and got to the airport only 40 minutes before our flight. As it was, she was unable to seat us together.<br> On board, Diana and I also discovered that our seats were on polar opposites of the plane. Both of us were sitting in the three-seat center aisle, me directly against the forward bulkhead, her against the rear wall. Our intention was to ask someone to switch seats. <br> The two people sitting ...

... tour guides at Disneyland. <br><br>We sped through the water and soon passed several homes, many of which we could see straight into. There were families inside (as well as stray dogs of course), clothing hanging on clothes lines, and plenty of old cars parked along the riverbed. At one point we were passed by literally the oldest woman I have ever seen in my life, rowing a small canoe down the river. I wanted to take a picture but figured it was rude. The best part ...

... Stadt/Land von Bangkok, also das war sooo riesig, da ist Spreitenbach n Mueckenschiss dagegen. In 2 Stunden haben die das ding ueberraschenderweise repariert bekommen, war brutal froh! Genauso ueberraschend wie die Tatsache war dann auch der Preis, stolze 1000 bath (20 Euro) musste ich zahlen, fuer uns nic hviel, fuer Thailand n ordentlichen batzen. Wir fuhren dann mit einem Tuck Tuck wieder zurueck an die Khaosan Rd, zogen uns um und fuhren wieder mit dem Tuck Tuck ...

... likely be continued back home in NZ when she heads there for Christmas.<br><br>thankfully for me Andrea was happy to join KA and I for dinner in<br>Brunswick St, as I may not have fared terribly well on the tram system<br>without guidance, and KA might still be looking for me now. Sadly $4<br>pizzas at Bimbos (http://www.bimbodeluxe.com.au) never eventuated as apparently half of Melbourne had a hankering for them too, but the organic tofu ...

... a 'cocktail bar' which was essentially a VW camper van with the top down, but hey, it did some pretty mean cocktails!<br><br>I wonder if this part of town has any normal bars, or if they're all this random?<br><br> <br><br>Before I forget, I'm sorry if I still haven't completely worked out the travel blog website, it's not the most ...

Tuesday, January 09, 2007 <br><br> <br><br> I'm here <br> Current mood: lonely <br><br>Well I'm here, bit of a drama at the airport, couldn't find the guy who was picking me up, so was waiting for an hour and a half, feeling very stressed out, being constantly hassled to get in taxis. I was starting to get upset because I couldn't call anyone, my phone wouldn't call out for some reason and the lady at the change counter wouldn&#8217;t ...
