Finished!

Well tomorrow is my final exam and then I am finished! Yeah! I'm super excited to have some free time again. My friend and I are going to go to Mynmar for a few days and buy some cheap DVDs. I just bought season 1 of Lost for about $15 so I'll be watching that like an addict and then we'll teach a little bit and just kind of wing it I guess. I'll be teaching on the weekends until I leave. So that will be my steady line of work each week and then we will assist one or two weeks at Wat Suan Dok. I'm just so excited to have some free time.

I am going to start researching grad schools in the Boston area in Business and Sociology so if anyone has any particular preferences or suggestions shoot me an e-mail.

Teaching at nights has been an interesting experience. They have us make detailed 6-7 page lesson plans for one hour. I think its a little much but it seems to be a good training tool. I got to have my last class match themselves up with a celebrity which is always interesting. They like to choose based on the qualities listed, I like to choose on looks so we had some fun with that.

Anyways overall I think the class was worth it. It was overwhelming at times and I am exhausted but I actually learned a few things and have a second career option if ever i get sick of my job at home. Its always important to me to have an escape option.

The only cool/weird that happened this week was that yesterday we had a slight earthquake around 4pm. I was sitting at this same computer checking my e-mail and I had been feeling a little dizzy at the time. Well the room started to swirl around me for minute and I thought it was because I was going to faint. Then today I found out that we had a small earthquake and my source said the restaurant that he was at he felt the world was swirling or spinning because of the tilting action from the earthquake.

It was cool to find out that in reality I wasn't actually going to faint, I was experiencing my first earthquake. No way!
