A Note from Bangkok

My trip ended half a world away from where I started, and now, here I am Bangkok; I had to manipulate the clock for this post, because it was set for Central Time, and I added the thirteen hours for the time here in Thailand. (It honestly doesn't feel like it's THAT different, but by the time we changed planes in Tokyo, Japan, my body clock was completely thrown off anyway, so I adjusted pretty quickly.)

It's sort of thrilling to be here. The weather's a little strange - the middle of winter in Thailand feels like the middle of summer in Texas - but it's the tropics, so you had to expect that. It's really cool to be right in the middle of the foreign culture; there's obviously a lot of history just waiting to be asked about.

We went to the University today and saw the English Club. Tomorrow, we'll be meeting the president of the school. Things seem to be going well with the whole team, so the trip's been great so far.

Okay, I probably shouldn't spend too much time blogging, since I'm paying for time on the public computer, so I'll be logging off now.

NOTE TO SELF: Some day, visit Tokyo.
