Can you hear that..drip...drip..drip

Oh well that is one of 2 things. Sweat or rain. When it is not raining, the heat that is radiating in Thailand is holy hot!  The second I walk outside drip drip drip....or the second clouds roll in it starts to rain, thunder and lightning.  I guess we have been pretty lucky the storms have come at night so we don't have to run around campus getting soaked...but if we are going out on the weekends the rain has the potential to ruin a great hair day. Lets be honest the humidity and heat never make for great hair conditions anyway.....so chances of my hair being manageable...forget about it!!!

Other exciting news happening in Thailand..............

-The new group of teachers has some real characters. They are great.  So far my favorite is Arilele. She hits golf balls out her balcony doors over the trees and into the rice patty's. HA! So we are going to go to a driving range, maybe even play a round of golf out here one scorching evening. I said my dad will be so proud of me, working on my golf game in Thailand.  Well I guess her dad just had her switch her swing side? My reply to that was, my dad will just be happy if I can make it to the fairway!!! Baby steps, baby steps.

-So far I love all my classes. I can feel it in my bones, this is going to be a great semester.

- I enrolled myself into a "personal training program"  My new bestie is X.  He measured me, told me what to do for 2 1/2 months and will be boxing with me 2x a week. I had my 1st boxing session this evening. Well, I have blisters on my toes, I did about 100 kicks, crunches, jump rope and other random things...my shirt was SOAKING WET. If I would have known he was going to kick my ass I would not have ran and biked before this boxing sesh I had. This Friday night I will not be tearing up the dance floors of Bangkok but will be passed out early like an old women...I bet I won't be able to move tomorrow morning!

- I have 2 scheduled visitors this semester and the 1st one will be here Thursday!!!!  I can not tell you how excited I am to have someone step into my little life over here.  I have the honor of picking up Bradley Waller from the airport Thursday evening.  He is coming up from Sydney, spending the long weekend with me, going to explore Laos during the week with some of his buddies, then I get him for one more evening as he pit stops from Laos back to Sydney.  We will have the camera out and rolling documenting the weekend. We are going to have so much fun I bet I get at least two more visitors out here.(Lisa...Mark...)  I will be taking him to my favorite places to eat, drink, dance and be merry.  Oh and he will be a guest teacher Friday! You guys will be lining up to come see me when you see the scrap book I put together.

- Sunday I am going to see Hangover part two.  It was filmed here in BKK so I am excited to see what angle they took..

Time for a relaxing Friday evening in Bang Na. Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!
