GUESS WHO'S BACK!!!

HEY PEOPLE!!! I AM BACK FROM THAILAND!!! Came back around 10pm yesterday and was busy packing up so couldn't blog or come online. Then today my monitor didn't respond for most of the day until i had my dad take a look at it when he came back from work just now...

THE FOOD IN THAILAND ROCKS!!! I am going to miss the food the most... Oh well, i didn't went there to eat anyway... The food was just extra... XD

The first day i reached there was mainly spent travelling and settleing in Pastor Eng Kiat's house. Nothing much did on the first day. Then night came... And the next morning we woke up to the blistering cold... I never expected Thailand to be cold so i slept in shorts the first night... So i was like shivering my ass off that morning... That morning we did some visitation and went to the Chao Phraya River for some reflection. We ended up with lots of food for our reflection time as during visitation the people just gave us food... And more food... But the food was nice!! You should have the nut called buffalo horn or something, we called it the "moustach"chio nut. Why? It looks like a moustach... XD


That afternoon we went to a Kids Bible Club. We performed a short skit and had some games before having dinner with kids. soem kid was liek so close to kicking me in the crouch because of SOMEONE... Right XiaoXi?? I didn't mention any names did i??XD Oh yah... A kid also jumped onto my neck from the back and was hanging onto there for a while... I almost suffocated...


The next day we went to See Winit High School to teach English. Based to team members that went before to Thailand, the English standard was very bad. But it was fun teaching them. And thank Cass for that wake up call!! That afternoon we went to Thachang church to help out with the English Homework Club. The kids had English assesment books with Thai words... And i don't actually have much synergy with kids so... The most i actually did was help direct the kids to some answers and did some reading with them. Thanks to Chi(someone over there) who helped me!! And the dinner was heavenly, yours truely by Aunty Krisana!! YEAH!!

Third day, i felt strange i didn't miss anything in Singapore. But anyway, we went to Wat Chalermat Primary School to also teach English. The kids were more adorable, obviously... And i got the nursery kids... Imagine me... A giant among them... But nevermind, after the lesson was over, we had soem free time with the kids, you should have seen the kids playing with my watch, with all the *BEEP*ing sound... The wonders of morden technology i say... XD After that we went to a cell-group meeting at a rice mill. We did a short mime, sticky chair, and Ryan did sharing.

Next day went back to the primary school again and managed to try out the canteen food. And the kind of food was like fried stuff so it is currently BANNED IN SINGAPORE SCHOOLS!!! But it was like cheap and it looked good so i had to try some. So since nursery session ended earlier then the rest of the other levels, My teaching partner, Eunice, and i wandered around buying canteen food. XD Later in the afternoon, we did a Kid's Christmas Party. at a village. I am sure the kids had fun... especially with me suffering... T.T We had dinner at Thachang Church(YUM!!) again and helped to clean up the place to prepare it for Christmas.

Then 23th December, the day i will have a hard time forgetting... It was the day we were to do the English camp at Inburi Church. I and Eunice were in-charge of teh nursery kids again... Then there was this kid, Bat(pronounce with me, BA-T). There was this once he came to me, Then he kicked me in the crouch... Then while i was on the flooring sitting down trying to hide my pain he came with a puch to the same place... Then again... And again... Then i have to wander off... Or i would have loss my chance to have a father day... I had to change class to recover... and i never really did recover from it until the evening... The side effects of getting hit multiple times in the crouch: Blurness, pain and lasting pain... And Nat, stop laughing if you are... After that, we had dinenr at Singburi Church, and it was buffet style. The flow of food never stopped until the end... The Thais beat Singporeans at food man... Singapore only get big portions, but in Thailand, There will always be extra food left over, and the left over ain't just 1-2 plates, it is one whole tub of food...

Christams Eve!!! we were ar Inburi church with some at service, some at Sunday school and some at Youth service.
we had luch tehre before heading to Thachang church for for their service and sunday School. Dinner was at Thachang Church again(YEAH!!! BOOO YAH!!!). And we went Carolling to houses after that.

CHRISTMAS!!! We did some helped to clean up another church in the morning before heading out to KhokChang village to do an open air Evangelistic Concert. It was mainly kids and it was also lots of fun... XD

Then Boxing Day!!! We first went to Inburi High School to do a short christmas programme. Then we did a few visitation. And WOW... Was the padi fields big... Next time when the internet is more stable then i upload them... Then in the afternoon we went to Wat Yai Soi Village for another Evangelistic Concert. You should see me escort this small little girl home after the event... She was like so CUTE... Wait... I don't have her photo... Need to get someone to send it to me...

Then 27th was spent packing up and travelling form Singburi Provience to the airport then to Singapore... We almost missed our flight... But thank God the flight was delayed 10 minutes... Divine Intervention, yeah?? XD

The trip was memorable... I ended up with some video clips and pictures i cam blackmail people with... HEHEHE... That should be enough for now... And man... What a long post... Oh well, see yah around!!
