I can’t believe the homestay is over half over! I feel like I am just starting to get to know my family, and I would be happy to spend the next six months here.
This morning I had a really hard time eating breakfast, it was once again meat and rice, only this time the meat didn’t have a scauce, so it was just meat and rice, but despite my efforts to hide it, my paw noticed and made me some of the buttery green-toast as well, which as quite kind.
Last night Bah May Pen came home with a beautiful school uniform for me. The shirt was a silky soft material, and the pencil skirt was gorgeous and comfy. Bah Ley, Rew and I played catch in the afternoon, and I understood a few words that Yai John said to me in the afternoon. Namely “take a shower” which the Thai say, not to tell you that you’re a sticky frang (exactly) but that they want you to be comfortable.
Last night Rew, Lep and I lit a Thai giant paper lantern, and let it sail away into the night sky. It was a chest high paper tube, with a candle holder at the bottom, when the candle is lit the hot air fills the paper ballon. It glowed bright orange and yellow, and rose into the air gently, before floating up and out towards the mountains.
