On the Title

Roi-Et a.k.a. "101" is a city in the northeast of Thailand. I spent more than "One Night in Bangkok," and was on my way to Roi-Et. It wasn't my final destination in Thailand, but the place where I grew the most. I gained a tolerance for spicy food, and learned a little dialect called Essan-- a mixture of Laos and Thai. I learned that it's not the destination but the journey that matters. Just as random as my adventures were in Thailand, so is my life--it's like living in L.A. (oh by the way L.A. is another nickname for Roi-Et).

Emma: A Good Dose of Prozac



I know I haven't written much lately, but honestly my life has been kinda dull. Except for the fact that I am student teaching 10th and 11th graders. They're super fun! Everyday is a new adventure. So far the students haven't made me cry, I made myself cry though. On Friday I felt like I am messing up sooo much and I am going to ruin their chances of getting into Harvard--like going from an "A" to an "F"--but then again, sometimes it's just them. I thought I was lazy!

I'm getting better, everyday is a new day, and every period is a new period that I can start over and do better.

So after my meltdown on Friday I watched Emma and felt so much better!
