Here are my two highlights from the month of June...
K-2 at Baan Kajonkiet… I don’t really remember too much
happening in June but it do remember that it was a long month because we worked
from May into June and then into July without a day off or any special activities
for about eight weeks. So I guess I
should mention my class for the new school year…The new school year started in
May and I moved to K-2, which is the second year of their three years of
kindergarten. I had quite a rowdy class
but an amazing Thai teacher, Khun Kru Em!
It was great teaching students who for the most part, wanted to learn and though
they drove me crazy, I felt like I accomplished a lot. There were days where I screamed and days where
I laughed and days where I was literally in tears, but all in all I loved my time in K-2. To say I was devastated to
leave my kiddies in October is an understatement. I've included an array of pictures from the first semester below and uploaded my all-time favorite video of the shenanigans that occur after school starring my favorite, Pin as well as Ing Ing, Gim Suan, Bonus and Buck...

Wiped out! Walking around the airport yeling "AirAsia! AirAsia!" is hard work for kindergarteners |

This is how we take final exams in K.2 |

Coral Island – Played hooky for a day the last
week of June and drove down to the southern tip of Phuket and caught a longtail
boat to a gem of an island called Coral Island.
Nancy was planning on leaving Phuket forever and we were in a panic
trying to finish her bucket list and Coral Island was on it (luckily, she ended
up having a change of heart last minute and stayed on with me until
November). It was low season so the
island was empty, the water was crystal clear blue-green and the sand was pure
white. We completely relaxed for the day
and remembered how amazing our lives were.
