okay. wow. it's been a long 'ol time friends. i apologize.

okay. where to even begin. i think i'm still partly in phuket. on my host family day there we (sara, mix, boat, nut, and i) met up with johnny, tina, vania and callie and their host families. and we went around phuket. we went to this AMAZING temple. wow. i took like 80 pictures. and i have yet to get any of them up cause my laptop died and my converter doesn't have the third little circle thing that my laptops plug has so . . . . no pictures for awhile folks. but when they do get up there's going to probably be like 243. just an estimate.

okay so after that we went on an elephant ride. kinda cool. kinda sad though too. poor elephants. and then . . . . ummm we went out to eat at this awesome resteraunt. and ate SSOOOOOOO much food. like honestley. in this day i ate the most food i ever have in my life. wow. they just kept offering and its rude to decline so i managed to stuff sooo much into my poor now larger stomach. holy toledo.

umm and then we went to a beach and it was awesome and then we went to a market where i did something exciting but i'm going to let you all figure that out on your own. ooo laa laa eh?!

umm so then we did our travel day to namphong, thailand. it took a long time. like 10 hours-ish.

okay and at this point i'm going to apoligize for all the typing mistakes i make from this point on but this swedish keyboard is just not loving me.

namphong was soo different. i was roommates with callie from the states and we lived with sang, dang and therr daughter dream. dang was an english teacher so we were pretty lucky
cause she could speak to us alright. i taught english the first to days to students anywhere from the ages of 6 to 16. it was sooo hard. one hour lessons per classroom. the first day i was with johnny all day and then the next day i was on my own all morning and then ith vania and then andrea in the afternoon. wow. i was pulling out all the barney songs i knew - thank you karyn, maria, daniel, rachel, nick, josh and bekah. it was cool though.

our shows there were >CRAZY. but i kinda wrote of that already. but in case i did't mention the sweat - oh my bananas i've never ever sweated like that.

cool things that i did there:

.ate a cricket- they were on the tables like peanuts. not too bad
.ate half a grasshopper - cause it was about this long ----------------------------------------------------------------- and it required two bites ad i just couldn't put the pther halfin my mouth. UGH SO BAD!
.hahaha callie and i did a shot of whiskey with our host family on the second night. apparentley they drink after every plateful. hahah i was really funny.
. wrapped a hige snake around my neck. AGH. good picture of it when i get them up

other cool things:
. brodies fish, steve, that lived in his showering water
. our mini olympics and getting COVERED in mud and having a flour/water fight with andrew
. place where we ate on our host family day - afterwards talking to jeff with our feet in the water.
. the cow that ran by us on our first day with our host family. we were sitting at the table and it just ran by us. SOOO funny.
. i don't know i'm all out.

okay. so then we went to finland. I LOVE FINLAND! it was a crazy travel day. like 6 hours bus and then 10 plane. not nearly as bad as the 42 to thailand though. it was really long. but it was good. on the bus ride jeff, vero and i all slept in the back all cuddled up. nice.

and i'm going to stop there cause this computer is in sherlocks room and i think he wants to sleep. i'll try and do finland and here in sweden tomorrow. alright.

oh and i ate rice tonight for the first time since thailand and i didn't gag. haha i kinda missed it really . . . . .

Kady, I don't think I have ever seen a cow run. I didn't even know they could run. What a crazy world we live in.

Kaaaaaaaaaaady
I check this everyday!
Give me something to read!

p.s. You were in my dream last night! [not trying to be creepy]. Up With People came to PEI... and you stopped by my apartment and we went to the student centre on campus to see your host family (Who lived on campus apparently). Anyways, they dressed in white and beige and had light coloured hair and pale skin and were BED RIDDEN. I don't imagine they would have been a good host family. So if you guys ever come to PEI, you might as well just stay with me :)
