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).

Summer Plans

I know it's been a long time since I last blogged, the reason partially because I've been busy with being a first year teacher, and because while my adventures in teaching have been superfun (and believe me worth discussing), I kinda like my job and would like to keep it. I do like my students, but sometimes they give me a rash.

My plans for the summer are simple. Teach summer school for 3 weeks (just to rack up a few more dollars to get me through July). And read. Oh to read again! The simple things in life are what I enjoy, and reading is simple.

So far, I finished a book I started in January, started a new book but didn't finish it, and started another book in the middle of the second book and just barely finished it. So you see, I am well on my way. I don't know if I will finish the second book; I am going to start the fourth book once I get some summer school lesson plans out of the way--I still need to focus and prioritze for a little bit longer, ugh!--and this is me just putting off the inevitable. Procrastinating is awesome!

Last night I was called a "nerd." I know it. I own my nerdiness. It took me awhile to accept it, but I at least have other hobbies, and friends... That's what's important right? Having friends?
