It's the First day of school! Classes don't actually start until next week but I have to try and organize schedules etc. this week and it feels crazy around here.  Dave and I took pictures this morning of our first day at school...it feels like I have a real job..weird.  Nothing else is really new.  I just feel incredibly unorganized at this point so I better get going.  I can't wait to get internet so I can put up pictures. 

Oh, we went to the largest market in Bangkok this weekend..JJ's.  The first price is never the price you pay at this market but since I don't know my numbers yet, I was just another tourist to the vendors and I had a frusterating time trying to bargain.  But I bought some dangly 50 cents earings and I bargined on a bamboo jewlery box and of course found fun things for my sisters.  So the goal is to learn numbers this week so next weekend I can bargain in Thai!

It's still weird to me to be starting school in June.  It feels like band camp.
