i had a treat last week because i got to see someone from home. mr anthony kapanowske made an appearance in bangkok. his 'uncle,' who has lived here for nearly 30 years, got married on saturday and so a-town is here for a few weeks with his dad in honor of the ceremony. on wednesday night we decided to meet up on good ol khaosan for dinner and a drink, which unexpectedly turned into many many margaritas courtesy of anthonys dollars and not my bahts.
even though d we dont see each other much now that we dont work together, seeing someone from home was indescribable. its different seeing everyone from the group on the weekends because even though they are great friends, they are still from my life here in thailand. having someone from my life back in the states was just amazing.
so we met wednesday and went out, which was fine, because as it turned out, thursday and friday were the thai testing days, which meant that even though we had to be at school, we didnt have any classes. really, us being here was pointless, but its fine because i got to sit on the computer all day. (you would think i would have been more productive with writing and such, but alas, no.)
friday night i headed over to stephs place to camp out for the weekend. we went to dinner on good ole khaosan again and got to meet bierles girlfriend who was visiting for three weeks during her winter break from school. it was an early night though and after splitting a bucket, we headed back to stephs.
the plan for saturday was to head over to the ancient city, which is why we stopped early friday night. however, we underestimated how long the bus across the city would take, and by the time we were finished the first leg of our journey, with still an hour or so more to go, we realized we would only have a 1/2 hour t
o see the thing, so we decided to meet tasha and opted for another relaxing day at the massage place instead :)
