It's been a while

Sorry about the lack of posting. I've been hanging out with my mom, taking exams, and preparing myself to leave Chiang Mai :(. I also don't have Internet constantly anymore. My mom and I have spent the last week shopping, a lot. Lucky you, gifts galore. I took my mom to the mountain temple yesterday, she loved it but got car sick from the 90 degree turns. I have met up with my friend Kyle, she went to Belize and UVM. She's now teaching English in Southern Thailand, and is in CM for the week. Last night we took Boon- my song tow driver- and his family out for dinner. He chose a place that is Thai buffet style. It was a huge area with play grounds and a stage, there is about 100m of food. There is raw stuff you can cook and then already cooked stuff. You eat until you puke, of course it was awesome. I don't really want to leave. We are not sure but I think tomorrow we will go to Sukothai, then to Bangkok, then to the islands to tan. Oh and I have been shivering when the temperature gets to be 80, I'm screwed for winter. Hope all is well at home.

Road trip

This past weekend I went road tripping with 3 of my new American friends. As you can see, we survived, and had lots of fun. We rented a mini mini van :). Nan is a Northeast town about 6-7 hrs drive from Chiang Mai. We stayed one night in Prae, a town about 5 hours away. In Prae we just kind of hung out, we met some 17 year old lady boys, they were cool. The next day we went to Nan, initially it sucked. But by the end of the day we found a nice guest house, and some traditional boaters and group exercisers. Also a nice restaurant and bar. The following day we headed back to Chiang Mai. Yes we did lots of driving, but it was fun and beautiful. I highly recommend looking at my photos 1) to get a grasp of young lady boys and 2) to see the beautiful scenery. This week was the last week of classes. Crazy! I am half way through my senior year of college. I feel old and not ready for "real life." My mom will be here in less then a week! So exciting. It'll be fun to show her all around, though I have stupid exams (1 the day after she gets here, 2 the following monday and 1 that tuesday- i probably wont do too well) then we leave Chiang Mai 2 days later :(. We will be begining our 2 month adventure, starting off with Laos. Hope all is well in VT and the US, dont forget to look at my photos and post comments :) Peace.
