Last night I was just getting ready for bed, talking with my roomies, when out of the blue my host mom calls me up and is like "are you free?" "Pi la will pick you up in ten minuites!" and off we went to restaurants and bars, and dance clubs and stayed out unitl i was falling asleep as i danced. i could speak so much with them! i've improved so much in the last month! It was especially fun because they love to practice english together, so we had an amazing night flowing smoothy through Thai-glish and Eng-Thai. (usually they speak English and I respond ni Thai). The first place we went was a restaurant surrounded by a garden, with a small live band in cow boy hats playing country music. The second place was a huge almost warehouse sized club, with lights and a huge live band on stage with colorful lighting, there were giant paintings of famous people an all the walls. Every table was full (Thais hang out at hundreds of little tables, and dance at their respective tables with their friends). There might have been 600 people there, and i didn't see any other farang. The live singing was really fun, especially when the band played happy birthday for a lucky 23 year old in the crowd and i could sing along. Aparently usually its even more hoppin' and fun but the princess queen is styaing in chaing mai and the police ordered the best singer to go to where she was, so he wasn't at the dance-club-restaurant-place like usual. After dancing, I stayed at thier house that night, (Rew sneeked into my bed right away!) i woke up disoriented and full off joy. The sky outside my room was full of a rainbow colored sunrise. I played wiht my host brothers, and chatted with the family friends that were at the house before breakfast. Then i called dad/colin real quick and they got to say hello to my host fmaily through skype. Both families were very excited, my Khun Mae was touched when dad and colin said hello in thai.

I keep forgetting to tell everyone, but my host family extends an open invatation to Tor, and family, and friends who will come back to thailand with me to stay at thier house. Khun Mae K will take us around and take care of us. She would really like mum and dad to come visit!
