mov`n to the country
so i have decided that when i do eventually move out.....i will be movin to this nearby farming community in the country. it is very peaceful and relaxing i think i will enjoy it. epsecially since i want to work more with agriculture.....so we will see what happens!
i think about food from home all the time now....haha its killer. thai food, pita inn, stuff like that, which is pretty ironic since none of that food is american.
today i am going to start workng with a carpenter to make a bag set...cornhole set. i thought it would be fun to share some of the funner aspects of our culture. and also tonight i think we will be playing beerpong...but to find the ping pong balls we will have to cut up aerosol cans and take out little plastic balls. should be interesting and i will let you know how everyone takes to the new game.
english classes are going well....feel like they are actually learning something and ive been able to root out the students that are actually pretty serious about the class. they definitely seem to be learning. so that is good.
i have a friend that drives a bus and yesterday he took me way out into the countryside and after his route we ate with his family. then he took me to this really old bridge that a train used to pass over the river....we were going to jump off because it was really hott and that water looked really nice but apparently it was too high and we would have drowned.....so afterwards we went to another bridge and another river and swam in that one....
so its been almost exactly 5 months since i landed in this country where i new exactly nobody and nobody speaks english and with no idea of what was going to happen to me or what i was going to do....and welll
i am still alive.....and still enjoying my time....and still have no idea what i am doing but its ok because now at least i can understand more of what is going on around me and i have many other friends close by that are in the same situation....
haha love you guys
will post again soon
