apparently, and for whatever reason, people actually read this blog? and there has been demand for more of my inane insights into my boring existence. i'm flattered, and frankly, a little frightened. people actually read this blog?
so here's a quick summary of what's been happening with me:
october - phuket vegetarian festival, chika's wedding, school break, one day decorating the english room/ERIC center, krabi (ao nang)
november - chris comes to visit two weekends in a row.. which meant two weekends in a row of phuket, a minor cold with some major depression, english competitions, english camp, thanksgiving
and what's ahead:
december - christmas at kelly's, george is coming for a visit -- new year's in phuket and then off to phi phi island for hopefully white sand and turqoise water. george's one wish.
tomorrow is a holiday so i'll get you the extended version of the update complete with pictures (backdated a la chris allen. the cheater). perhaps. no promises. you know i'm lazy.

About Me
I am a Peace Corps Volunteer serving as an English teacher in the south of Thailand. The random ramblings within this blog in no way represent the views of the Peace Corps, its affiliates or the United States Government. They're my random ramblings and mine alone. Mwahaha.
That said, I'm into taking lots of pictures, stand-up comedy, and in general, enjoying life (which may or may not sometimes involve traveling).

Quotes
Anais Nin:
"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."
Jenny Kane, PCV 118. From "Recycle Love" article in Sticky Rice magazine:
"The relationships we create in the world, the love in essence that we put out in the world, on any particular day, is what life is about ... Love the pain, the tears, love the work of getting through each day. Love and, despite love, even, love again, and more."
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to give one's self... this is to have succeeded."

Also, getting depressed sucks. Don't do it.

Hi there,
I found you're blog online while searching for a former PCV from Thailand, Margaret Pratley. I was wondering if you or your peers would know her. I'm a PCV in South Africa and met a person who knew Ms. Pratley when she was a volunteer in Lesotho many years ago. He would like to get in touch with her and I said I would try to find her contact details. I saw lots of articles about her being the oldest serving PCV when she left Thailand in 2007 but I can't find any more than that. If you can help I'd greatly appreciate your assistance. Thanks so much. Jami
