MOB photos, and an update (:

THE PHOTOS ARE IN! :D here's a handful of them (not in order of events), enjoy! :

Our little outdoor picnic outside auntie nellie's rented place. eating with our hands from banana leaves. it's kinda cool, albeit the annoying mozzies and flies


This is the famous ROASTED CHICKEN! it is to die for, really. especially when you eat veggies and rice three meals a day for almost 2 weeks... heh


Group photo on our last night at the hostel


At Chiangrai international airport


the transit at bangkok airport when we were gg up. clem and gabriel played soccer with the san zha i bought (which is meant for consumption). they played with those 3 pieces so much that the colour got darker and darker.

this is tanuk. he's the youngest kid in the hostel. it's really amusing when he gets angry and starts raising his voice, like some mafia gang leader.. hahah


this is from the BBQ we had on friday night


yimin and clem sharing a private moment :P


jam run, tanuk and chan chai. jam run's name (pronounced zam lern) has since been turned into some kind of cool swear word, thanks to clement.


auntie nelli helping tanuk with his school u. their shirts have buttons at the end so when they tuck in , they can button the shirt to the shorts so it doesnt come out. tanuk was so shy cos auntie nellie asked him to loosen his shorts so that she can tuck it in and we were all standing around cos we were sending them off to school. haha

yimin holding snow with disgust. snow just went swimming in the irrigation channel and got himself all muddy and dirty. the only reason why yimin would pick him up is that snow kept running off to find trouble with this big dog in someone's house so we had to carry him away.


the guys acting cool with their new purchases...

auntie nellie's giraffe soft toy from barang barang. haha. it's super nua. haha

that's lorraine from ARPC with gao cheng (hostel parents' son) and snow.

snow! (: he's the hostel dog. actually he's auntie nellie's dog but he stays at the hostel. a lousy guard dog who's easily bribed by tummy rubs, but he's brought joy to many of the kids there, esp those who have hurts in their lives or even those who are homesick, etc.

jiw (jiu2) and gao cheng. dont you think she looks like a mixed blood kid? we found out that she is! we asked auntie nellie and she said jiw is half mien and half.... (we were expecting some ang moh blood or smth) northern thai. haha. it was so anti climax when she said that.


this was taken outside mr and mrs phin's house (pronounced fin but i dunno how to spell) up in palay while we were waiting for the soong teow to come pick us. mr phin is the village head man and the church is to the right of his house (down a stairway further back). they also take care of auntie nellie's other dog, scottie.

the hostel parents, Pii Jed and Pii MeiChing and gao cheng. taken at the queen mother's palace (which is like some big botanical garden with many nice flora and fauna, and nearby is the queen mother's house which we couldnt take photos of)

this is auntie nellie, always looking good for the camera! (if you are from bartley and dunno that, shame on you! tsk. haha)

team photo at the queen mother's palace, where we all have upsidedown-flower hats (:

mel posing with a sign that is SUPPOSED to read: toilets inside, 5 BAHT. haha. at the irony is that it was at mae sai, the myanmar border, which is a tourist area and yet... heh

------------------------------------------------

aye. the past week has been so zz without amy and sharon around! like now with amy gone, her work is kinda split, so me and glory have to shoulder more work on top of our usual stuff... (it used to be, underworked and overpaid [or so we felt] and now it's overworked and underpaid). everyday we cant wait to go for lunch or head home cos it's so chiong hei in the office now. even our planned teabreaks (to prevent us from dying) are not able to pull thru. haha. how sad. thank God it's only a month till our internship ends :P

playing for pnp on wednesday. im kinda excited but at the same time quite scared that i'll screw up somewhere (which will most likely happen).

OH and i finally got a wolfsound eliminator for my 3k baby. ANNOYING-WOLFSOUND-NO-MORE! hooray!

gg to s'pore flyer tmr. how exciting :D
