| The locust they showed me this morning wait for the results later in the post... |
Today my school was closed because they were having the
opening ceremony for the new building that has the teacher’s room and the 2
fifth grade classes. They had a ribbon cutting ceremony at the building, and
then the 4th-6th grade who were required to attend, and
the guests were taken into the meeting hall that is also used for chapel, and
they had a church service to dedicate the building. The choir sang and they
sounded just like angels. I took a video, so I’ll see if it turned out and try
to attach it if you can attach videos on here.

After the service I ate with the teachers, then hung out
with some and got to know them better. One is pregnant due December 27th.
I’m so excited, I hope I get to see the baby often when she gets here J We were allowed to
come home earlier than normal, around 3 once the students were released. I was
working on sorting pictures when the teacher that lives across from me asked me
if I wanted to go to the market. Seems how I hadn’t gone to get any real food
yet I decided I would go with her. I got pork, a vegetable(I don’t know its
name in English, but it’s delicious), sugar, salt, garlic, and some fish. As we
were leaving she got a phone call that her son had broken my window. I was
thinking that I misunderstood because my windows are all wooden, and I don’t
think you can break one of those with a soccer ball. However, when we got home
I realized that above my door were 2 glass window panes. Now, there was one
glass windowpane, and one shattered all over my floor when I opened my door.
What a surprised. So, we left our shoes on and came in and each took a broom
and swept the floor twice. I still was finding small pieces of glass even after
that L

| something went wrong and the curtain ended up in the middle instead of on the edges...OOPS |
As I looked at where the glass shattered I was so thankful I
decided to go with her so I wasn’t home when the window broke. The glass shards
were all around the table and chair I had been sitting at before we left. I can
only imagine the possibilities of what could have happened had I been sitting
there when it broke. How great is our God who got me out before I was even in
harm’s way?
After getting everything cleaned up, I cooked rice in my
rice cooker for the first time, then made a meal with the vegetable and some
pork that let’s just say was less than delicious. It was edible, but definitely
not delicious. Oh well, my Thai cooking will improve as I do it more often, or
at least I hope it will J
