DAY 2

continuation of DAY ONE

this are addition pictures of the team at bangkok airport before we departed to chiangrai

tjin sleeping in the plane. lol i dunno why im posting this picture, i just felt the need to.lol.
We are in the (whatever you call it) vehicle to the church on the mountains, the church is 2 and a half hours away from the airport, and its really really really high up. lol.
this is the guys' room. This picture is actually taken in DAY 2 morning.

it was actually much better than we expected, but the pictures dont paint the full picture, if you think we had sweet dreams just cos we got mattresses and pillows. you are so wrong. so so wrong. right jenisse? :D we reached the church around 12am to 1am, so we immediately settled down and went to sleep.

DAY 2 TUESDAY

We were supposed to start our painting of the school on day 2(TUESDAY) but apparently the resources and all that werent ready and the person in charge cldnt make it down in time so we spent the whole day exploring the village and we taught english to the chinese thai kids.lol
here we are(above) exploring the school, this is one of the classrooms.
Look at the ceiling, its so nicely done, i wonder why is the ceiling so nicely done while everything esle is so broken down. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm the benches here are the cutest u'll find. i've heard of people trying to cut down on the amt of wood used, but making a seat that can only cover a quarter of ur butt is ridiculous.
The toilets at the school, the toilet bowls are at different heights for different age groups. lol thats the funniest thing i've seen all year.
The youths! 6 of us, 5 from JAM and timothy from TRAFFIC.
LOL, pastor eric "bathing" under this gigantic sunflower.
The above picture is that of the full team with the exception of uncle Check's wife and 2 kids. The toilets at the church we were staying yet, pretty similar to that at the school, just slightly bigger and the water we bathed with had beetles, moths, and any other small creatures u can possibly think of floating in them. oh wait, i forgot to mention tadpoles. :)
Since we cldnt start painting on day 2, we were tasked to teach english, ONLY the 6 youths, while the adults do the picture taking. lol i wonder why. so we were split in to groups. joy and tim above attempting to teach english.
Liesel and daryl
Jenisse and i.

THEN we went back to the church to practice our song singing and stuff. it was a pretty alrite day overall. not very eventful, but it sure was a pleasure teaching those kids.

man, u'll never understand why Singaporean kids are so apathetic in lessons if you see the attitude these thai kids have man, they were practically shouting out answers. but of course not everyone la. majority.
ur reaction will forever stay in my head. its hard to let go when the hurt was that deep. u'll nv know i was actually talkin about you.
God taught me trust on this day.
