Practice and Phi Phi

2/24/2014

 
It is down to crunch time here in Phuket. Only three more days to get everything done before it is off to India. The video above is a clip of us practicing one of their original songs last week after school. This is one of the 4 songs that will be recorded in the next couple of days and performed on Thursday morning. Not perfect- but the kids rock it out pretty well if you ask me.

Over the weekend I spent a night on Phi Phi island with a group of the English teachers from my school and some other young expats living in Phuket. The island was beautiful, but quite over taken by tourists. I got a chance to swim in the ocean, which was nice despite the grimy water, and I got a massage for the first time. At less than 10$, I was a happy camper. After the sun went down, the beach turned into what I can only describe as a giant international frat party with lots of fire. The dubstep was was pulsing, the neon was glowing, the fists were pumping, and the Singha beer was flowing. Not usually my scene, but I certainly enjoyed myself.

Last week during my weekly phone call with my parents, my mom asked me if I was going to be sad to leave. I said no. Sad isn't quite right- it's time to move on, but I will certainly miss it here. This school has been quite good to me, and Thailand is a beautiful place. 

Can't wait to report back at the end of the week after things have wrapped up and I'm on my way to India.



Until then,
