So... today was the last day of the second term of school. One more term to go!!! But before all of that must commence... two weeks vacation. Beach - here I come.
Today was actually a really fun day at school. It was the Songkran festival celebration. Songkran holiday is around April 13th, but we celebrated today. It is the Thai New Year, the hottest time of year, and what follows is the much anticipated rainy season. We started the day off with a somewhat solemn ceremony where the children each, one by one, wished us luck and a Happy Songkran. Then the fun began.
The rest of the day was pure fun. Water games, swimming, throwing flour. All in good fun. And for some reason I was constantly hearing, "Get Miss Teresa," where I would then be chased by classes of children with water pistols, or another group trying to throw me in the pool. It was good fun - exhausting, but good.
So, as of tomorrow, I will be at the beach, working on my tan, and enjoying every second of rest. I am going to Koh Chang, where I went in October. Then to Koh Lanta, Koh Phi Phi, and Phuket. I'm really looking forward to the vacation... and I'm not even thinking of the fact that it only lasts for two weeks.
