There are days that I show up for the flagpole ceremony and there's something new going on! Of course the rest of the teachers and all the students know what's happening, but the other English teachers and I stand around looking at each other and smiling. Last week there was a No Smoking campaign which consisted of the whole school walking around like a parade with the school band and some students even wearing monkey masks! We all joined in and waved to the younger students who were watching; it was pretty fun! Yesterday morning and this morning after the flagpole ceremony, a group of girl students stand at the front and lead the entire school in synchronized dancing! They played two songs, both of which are by popular Thai pop singers. It was quite amusing.

School Days
This past weekend Ashley and I bought ourselves bicycles in town! This way we can bike to school everyday and it takes less than ten minutes. It also makes getting around town much more manageable and is good exercise to boot! There aren't too many bikes around here, and even fewer people walking places, because it's just so hot! Most people have motobikes, scooters, a car, or hop on a bus or song-thaew. When we told one of the Thai teachers that we walked to school sometimes, he laughed! Haha
