Everyday Happenings in NongHee
Since the holidays, life has calmed down considerably in NongHee. But then again, when is life ever mundane when teaching in Thailand? I have decided to dedicate this post to the things that happen on a daily basis that are picture worthy and make my life in Thailand so entertaining.
First, the cooking expeditions of Michelle and I in our Thai kitchen. Pictured are the homemade flour tortillas (rolled with an empty beer bottle, who says you need a rolling pin?!), and the fixin’s for build your own BLT … livin’ in style over here!
Then we have view of the office one night as Michelle and I attempted to enter and use internet. We’re still confused as to why there were empty water bottles stacked to the ceiling. Our best guess is that the school fills them at the water purifier they have on campus. Still hilarious though.
Next, my adorable P. 5/2 boys Tin and Oat. They apparently decided it was cool to wear scarves tied around their heads, it was cold that day, so I’ll give them that. Tin also has a scarf around his neck, as if one were not enough. And the most hilarious part to me is that with the hood up underneath the scarf Oat looks like a gradeschool production of the Nativity scene … I couldn’t stop laughing!
Punk’s Not Dead! Nuff said.
One of my darling P. 6 boys, Mote (whose name I knew on the first day of class, which should tell you everything about what kind if student he is not) has been wearing this sweatshirt lately, which I find absolutely hilarious.
And to round out this entry of good ol' fun, I have a video of two of my P. 5 boys, Daam and Nix, shooting a water bottle off the end of a hose. Without fail, they are unsure of when it will shoot off, get wet every single time and make me laugh all the same. This was going on during what was supposed to be cooking class on Monday, but Earm wasn't teaching so God knows it was chaos and insanity the whole time ... including a good round of measure your height next to Kerry and spring her curls.
