Thailand: Week 6!!

Hello Family!!
This week here in Thailand was just another adventure. I went to work on Monday morning and guess what?? The school I'm supposed to work at finally started!! Hallelujah !! I got to go into the autistic class and help with their music and their lunch. It's super strange here. A lot of the kids aren't potty trained and don't wear diapers. So when they get their pants dirty they always have a few changes of clothes in their backpacks. The teachers just take them to the back, give them a bath, and put new clothes on. They also give haircuts at school I guess. They just shaved some kid's head... Haha. The rest of the week I just helped in that class or sat around and read. 
On Friday the director of the school invited me to go to a meeting with him in Lampang. I didn't want to go but it was pretty much decided for me. I had no idea that this city was so far away or that the meeting would be so long or that they would stop 2567544 times along the way. He told me we'd be back by 4:30 so I could go to town and meet up with my group. He lied. At 4:30 all of the directors from the area met up at a restaurant, got 3 bottles of whiskey, and partied for a good 2 hours. I got to hangout with a bunch of old drunk Asian men and to be honest it was not the most fun I've ever had.
At 8:30 I finally got back to Mae Rim (where I live) and my host mom drove me to Chiang Mai to meet up with the group. 
Saturday was an amazing day! We went to Sukhothai and got to explore the ruins while on bikes. I'm super great at riding bikes and I definitely crashed into one of the other girls and we both fell on the ground laughing our heads off. Best part of the day(; but seriously this place was amazing and I can't wait to show you pictures!
Okay that's all for now folks,
Mandy(:
