Since living in Thailand this quote has become more and more evident. I want to share with you all one of those stories. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Last year, around October, my office and I handed out blankets, first to the elderly and the next day to all of the children with disability. On that day, I was sitting in the van and the ladies began to warn me saying "be careful these kids will hit you, bite you, or scream don't get close." I then ask them, "why?" They respond by telling me that some of them are Autistic. As most of you know, I have worked with Autism in the past and have a special place in my heart for children with Autism. Their statement did not affect me at all. I got out the van with blanket in hand. The first thing i did was run up to her and say "hello" in English and then "sawadee" with a huge smile. The little girl grabbed and squeezed my arm and smiled back. The little girl's mother was in shock but I was not. I simply treated her the way I would want to be treated, no matter circumstance. This stuck with me for a while. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That day I realized that we have a high population of children with disabilities. I began doing my research on what was available for the families as well as the children, within the village, and noticed that there was not much. I spoke with the head of the village public health center and she expressed a need for some activities around Autism. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I was excited and planning. I decided that I would create a monthly meeting in which we would have different activities each visit to assist the family in different ways while creating a network with in this group. This was my hope. The time finally came. I was to go visit each family, we started on my list. The list was children 0-14 with disabilities. All disabilities. My list started with about 15 children; 11 of which were identified as either Autistic or children with Down Syndrome. Throughout the day, I was driven to each house slowly but surely my excitement dwindled because all of the children I met, that one day in October, were all sent to a special school in a much bigger city. After it was all said and done I found my list at a mere 5 children; 3 with Downs ( 2 of which were under 2 years of age), and 2 with physical disabilities. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At this point, I was feeling defeated and disappointed. I decided to continue with my home visits. Basically, I would check in, document progress, and bring different activities to aid in said progress. One kid specifically named Oad. </div>

He cant walk and so he doesn't go to school. He was 11 when we began. I visit him once a week while the other children 1-2 a month. I began doing pretest, attempting to figure out what he could and couldn't do. I was shocked to find that he could barely use his hands to draw a straight line. We began working on little things like drawing, counting, and writing hoping to improve his motor skills as well as his daily living skills.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I wrestled with this because I wasn't sure how sustainable this truly was. Am I really helping him? Will it stop right when I leave. I also realized I was still kind of disappointed by the fact that this was not my original plan. This disappointment was clearly carried into this new plan. I had to accept the hand that was dealt which I eventually did. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Over time, I began to see change. And surprisingly, what I would call sustainability. I remember the day because of the feeling it brought. I biked up to Oad's house and he was sitting smiling, beside him was a handwriting book. He tells me that his mom bought it for him to practice while I am away. First instance of excitement. I could not wrap my head around it. Did she finally see the importance of his education? Did she realize, as I had long ago, that he was not developmentally challenged but simply not being stimulated by anything but the TV? Either way, I was happy to see it. That same day, we were working on adding and subtracting, typically he would ask his mother to help or she would volunteer her assistance. I would try to tell him to work by himself because he is very smart and I know he can do it. On this particular day, as we were working, his mother comes to help and he tells her NOOO I can do it by myself! Although he could have said it in a nicer way he used a smile haha and my day was made.</div>

<div>
Through all of the disappointment that came with pre-planning, talking to village leaders, preparing games and activities the blessing that came in seeing Nong Oad yell, " I can do it myself" really changed my perspective in a major way. On a journey such as the Peace Corps, perspective is vital and in this country called Thailand perspective is EVERYTHING. Disappointments happen, they are inevitable; it is the way we handle those disappointments that make the difference. </div>

And since I missed a month here is a little update in the form of a few pics! Love you all and as usually thanks for always supporting me in my journey! </div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I hope all of you are doing absolutely amazing!! This month has been a whirlwind of new experiences and successes! There are ups and downs in all experiences but the ups overwhelmingly outweigh the downs; that I am grateful for. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One major experiences and successes wrapped in one, was the completion of my first 10 k.<br />
Boy, was that a journey! Originally when I heard 10 k, I was thinking "NOOOO WAYYY I AM NOT A RUNNER"; I may have also laughed at Mamie when she told me about it lol. I then decided, "what better place to do my first run than Thailand?!". This would be a major achievement for me.<br />
<br />
I began training. I started walking, jogging and then running daily. Its definitely harder than you would think to train in this country, mainly because of the amount of dogs that are everywhere, all the time. I would try to run around my village but, it is impossible, here comes that EVIL pack of dogs that love to chase me. I was then confined to running laps at the school. I preferred running until I felt the need to stop so i couldn't really track distance on my own but at the school i knew exactly how many laps I had ran this caused a major psychological problem for me. Another volunteer suggested that countdown to my goal instead of counting up to my goal of laps. This helped tremendously. (Thank Sapan)<br />
I had moments where i felt completely defeated. Mostly due to a groin injury and the Peace Corps doctor telling me I was not allowed to work out for 3 months. I gave myself more like 1 month to heal and got back into training. This made it worse at times. Some days, I would start running and the pain was just too much. These days really got to me. I gave myself a week off again. And decided to push through the pain. ( I KNOW I KNOW) I set a goal for myself and I was gonna complete that durn 10 K no matter what! Honestly, I was limping around, quite often in some pain, but when I ran I felt nothing so I kept it moving.<br />
Once I got into a nice little routine I started feeling great! Excited about the progress even with the occasional set backs! I also changed my diet. I noticed when I ate certain things in the evening I felt wayyy better in the morning when it was time to run. <br />

** working out with these cuties definitely helped**</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Weeks went by and finally we reached RACE WEEK! Yee found us this amazing house with a pool and some pretty yummy food. It was a nice way to prep for the race on Sunday. We were also celebrating Yees Bday this weekend with some tiger fun. Saturday we went registered, picked up our race numbers and shirts. At this time, I found out that the race course included inclines and lots of windy roads! This added to my nerves haha because I had been practicing on the flat track at the school but I was still excited ready to get this thing done!<br />

Then headed over to the tiger temple. (pics below) We tried to keep it low activity and relaxed in preparation for our 3 am wake up the next morning. <br />
Sunday morning came, we were up and ready by 4 am! Excited! (yee and I heading over to runnn and nay and I walking in ready! )<br />

And then it began! I wasnt sure how this would work; would all the fast runners fly by? would we all be mushed together!? haha I just didnt know! But surprisingly, even with 1500 people, non of that happened. It was a really great experience! I had my 'sister' ( we had matching hair styles, Im sure everyone assumed we were siblings lol it is not the first time haha) nay running with me keeping me moving and regulating my breathing lol the whole time until the last K she was like, "come on sash we are just gonna sprint this one out" and then she counted down... Her legs began to move much faster lol I was said, "go ahead haha my legs arent gonna make it" I was definitely grateful. ( thanks Nay). </div>

Heres a few of us finishing out the race!<br />

This was truly a great experience! I thank mamie for roping me in and all of my friends for keeping motivated throughout this journey. I would love to do this again but I promised myself and other PC staff that I would have a seat to allow proper healing. I do not want to deal with this pain any longer! </div>

"Why is this time moving so slowly" or after I announce we have
reached 2/3rds of service, "WHAT ONLY 2/3rds, I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALMOST
DONE.” Each time I respond by saying, "Whatttt, noo I<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>feel like these 18 months have flown

<span style="color: #eeeeee;">This is them now!!! AHHH!!! *tear tear* they are growing so quickly!!<br /><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"></span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: 13.5pt; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: 13.5pt; text-align: start;">All of my little
loves, my babies have grown so much! It really brought my 18 months here in Thailand into
perspective. I began to reflect, "WOW, a lot of time has passed, I have
been a number of places, done so many new things and now only 9 months left!"
Realizing this, two things instantly go through my mind; "How will I
spend these last 9 months in Thailand?" and "What does life
after Peace Corps look like for me?"</span></div>
</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Two simple questions with such difficult
answers. As far as the next 9 months, I have a few plans laid out in both my
professional life and my personal life so this does not worry me as much.
I have a few exciting endeavors happening at work and I am signed up to
run my first 10 k in September. I am certain these next 9 months will be
filled with lots of new experiences, trips, and life lessons. The idea of life after
Peace Corps is kind of scary. And I just DO NOT know what it looks like. My mind is
everywhere! I have several passions, which makes this decision even harder. *
DISCLAIMER: WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ MAY BE NEWS TO YOU BUT DEATH THREATS ARE
NOT ALLOWED HAHA*
For those of you who don't know, the commitment to the Peace Corps is 2 years
however you can extend your commitment for an additional year if you can find an
organization that is currently doing work in youth development. Although
I have had some bad days here in Thailand, the majority were pretty good.
I was thinking about extending my commitment for an additional year.
Recently, I have met with potential organizations in which I could see a
future working with. With that said, I have yet to find anywhere that would make
me stay an additional year but the search continues. My other options are to really up in the air. Ph.D? Psy.D? LCSW?</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">(<definitely) Working in Thailand? Another country? The US?,
sigh I just don't know. </span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: 13.5pt;">I began to search, stress and over
think everything because 9 months sounds so far yet so close. I realized my
routine had changed. I was making my normal rounds when I noticed I had not
made my bed in one week, which is just not me. ( I make my bed daily first thing, even in hotels. Weird, I know. haha) One day, I was talking
to my sistiends </span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: 13.5pt;">(sister/friend). She didn't know
any of this was happening but was saying just what I needed to hear. It
was refreshing. She reminded me that 9 months is enough time to prepare
for what ever might be next but if I keep on this endless, over thinking, stressful
path I would do nothing but add confusion to my life. I gave myself a day
to pray, unwind, relax, and clear my mind. The next morning, I felt much
better and it didn't take as much for me to focus. I still have no clue what’s
going to happen March 2015 but I feel like I'm going into this search a little less all over
the place and more focused which will hopefully lead to good decision making
and a happy "whatever's next". </span></div>

Of course my journey began at my home in Nong Phai Phetchabun. March 28th I left home on a 5 hour trip to Bangkok for our Midservice Conference. This means that we officially met the midpoint of our service! YAY!! Midservice was a great time!<br />

After Midservice, eight volunteers, including myself, decided to head up north a bit. We went to Khao Kor, Phetchabun (Brandon aka Phetchabun's site) which is in the same province as Nong Phai about 3 hrs north of my home. And about 7 hours from Bangkok. The terrain is beautiful and mountainous. The weather amazing. In fact, very chilly on the way in. </div>

After about a 3- 3.5 hour ride south, I made it back home. Just in time to participate in the Song Kran Festival at site. This is by far my favorite of the Thai festivals. Everyone comes home, no work for days, tons of food, parties, and lots of water!!! Great times with friends and family!<br />

Bright and early the next morning, 4 am to be exact, I woke up and went to catch my bus to Chiang Mai. After a long long 12 hour journey, I finally made it to Chiang Mai. This was Song Kran Pt 2! It was basically a HUGE water fight all day long. If you don't want to get wet, this would be the wrong place to go. We ate food from 3 pigs, a delicious western food place, and Mexican! And yummy breakfast with omelets filled with cheese and avocado! Sadly, I have no pics of this delectable food. It was all captured on my camera, which is no longer =(.<br />

After all the water and fun in Chiang Mai. We headed to Lampang which is only about 1.5 hrs away from Chiang Mai. Lampang is Mayumi's site. It was great to get back to the village. After living in the village for so long, it is hard to be in the big city for an extended amount of time before feeling over stimulated. In Lampang, we participated in yet another Song Kran festival. It is nice to be able to see how things are done in other villages. Great low key fun. Lots of laughter, hanging out, eating, just enjoying life. <span style="text-align: left;">In accordance with Thai tradition, we added some jack fruit to our meal for good luck, in the new year. ( oh and I did Mayumis hair haha) </span></div>

Lampang was a great close to Song Kran and so I headed back home. I stayed at site for almost 2 weeks then headed to Phitsanulok. This journey should take no more that 4 hours but for some reason it took me about 9 hours to make it to P'lok. Phitsanulok is our consolidation point. If there is ever a major crisis in Thailand, the 8 people in my region would have to make their way to Phitsanulok to ensure our safety and if the problem escalated, we would be evacuated back home. Don't worry even with everything happening here were are not to that stage yet. We are probably in the safest place possible, our villages. During this trip to Phitsanulok, I had to buy myself a new pair of glasses. Yee was my guide. Scared but fun times for sure lol.<br />

Next up, we went to Bangkok( 6/7 hrs) for the night and left for Hua Hin early in the morning to beat traffic. We thought we would be the only ones thinking this way but we were completely wrong and we were crammed in the back of this mini van. All part of the PC experience, I guess. This was our first meet up for both groups 125 and 126. Beach time is always a great time! We also had games and special nights hosted by some 125s.

Back to Bangkok for some doctors appointments. Lots of meetings/dinners as well as a great day trip to the Camillian House for Children with Disabilities. I only wish I had the pictures to share. That was truly an experience. I wish the kids in my villages had the same opportunities as those in the city. Also, made some trips to the Peace Corps office of course!<br />

( short blog and msg to my fellow volunteers) <div style="text-align: center;">

<h4>
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">**HELLLOOO!! =) today I am posting an early blog I wrote ( about two days ago! I woke up super early and decided to write instead of going back to sleep haha) after 2 weeks of spending quality time with my PC family!**</span></span></h4>
<h4>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> As most of you may know or simply assume, being in they peace corps is JUST like living in a fish bowl except the fish get more of a break than we do. Being a volunteer is a 24/7 job. For example, I wake up around 530 each morning to prepare for my morning workout and out of the house by 6:15 while its still cool. One day out of the plenty, I woke up off schedule and headed out about 6:45 instead of the usual 6:15. On my way to work a number of people were asking why I exercised late coupled with their assumption that it is because I went to bed late or did not eat dinner. This is just one example of how we are watched all day </span></span><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">everyday</span><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. From January 28th to March 28th I stayed at site everyday with no trips, saw no other volunteers, just me and my village, day in and day out. I had never done that before due to medical or dental trips to the city, meetings and/ or holidays. I can honestly say that was not a walk in the park. I love my village and the people in it dearly and would not change them for the world but imagine 90 straight days of constantly living in that fishbowl, 90 days of people constantly asking you where you are going and why, even though they know because you have been going to the same places everyday for a year now, 90 days of those adorable kids jumping over your gate on your off day and screaming P som nonstop, 90 days of going to "meetings" events, and work trips and being stared at or asked to do impromptu speeches or games. Typically, I can handle all of the above with a great big smile, but towards the end of the 90 days I was on the brink of losing it lol. (I was close to using my ninja moves on any and all) I never realized how vital those random meet ups with my fellow volunteers really were until now. </span><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">March 28th I left my village and headed to Bangkok to find some of my amazing friends and relax. This was just what the doctor ordered. All the volunteers would come on the 30th for midservice conference. ( Meaning we have completed half of our commitment here in Thailand!!!!! Yayyy us!)</span></h4>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: start;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Midservice was much needed and right on time. It was great to laugh and not have to think through the joke or break it down first. It was great to speak English, which now sounds like my second language, all broken, choppy, not grammatically correct at all lol. It was just nice to see all of their faces. Multiple nights of hanging out, playing games, movies, TONS OF EATING haha and just catching up, oh and a little conferencing too! Wouldn't trade these crazies for the world.</span></div>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: start;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Midservice also brought some tears. It was announced during midservice that a very good friend would be heading home. You don't realize how much a person really means to you until situations like this. Although, It is sad to watch him go, I'm not worried because I know we will meet again. Before coming to peace corps I thought it was virtually impossible to build these types of strong beautiful relationships in such a short span of time but i was completely wrong. On Wednesday, a couple of friends and I decided to have a little surprise shindig for our good friend before he heads out. I sent a text telling the other volunteers to come to our hotel the next day for the surprise. As last minute as it was, the next day I walk in (after the surprise due to a late dentist appointment ha) filled with joy. The majority of the group came out. It just showed me what we have all gained here. I am beyond blessed. Although it was such a sad day it clarified one thing, no matter if we talk to each other everyday or once every few months, we have each others back. This is so important when your family/support is so far away. With that said, I have an absolutely amazing family right here in Thailand; it even includes all the components of a real family. Good times, bad times, fun times, sad times but in the end we are all in this together and we are all there for one another just as a family.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: start;"> I believe in giving people flowers in the present not waiting til its too late so I would like to say thank you to each of my fellow volunteers, all who came in on that plane Jan 11th, 2013. Although I still question how only one sane person made it into group 125 ( yes me) I would not trade you guys for a 100,000 baht (quite possibly some spinach, feta, and raspberry vinaigrette, I would definitely have to think that through) You don't know how much you have changed me for the better! You guys accept me even though I'm not quite on y'all's crazy level(quite far in fact lol). You all make it so easy to love and be loved! You guys have really made this experience that much more amazing. I would not be here without each and everyone of you! (Ok enough sappy stuff back to G sash ) </span></span></div>

School is out which means the kids have found themselves at my house more often but I love it. The majority of my day is spent at the school, now that school is out, most of my time is spent at the SAO, Sub district Administration Organization, the village government office. Although I love the people here, I have never been one to simply sit. I don't think I know how. I think it is more exhausting then running a 1 million mile race. I dread it. This has definitely been a major struggle thus far and it has only been 2 weeks ha, i cant imagine a month more. The great news is next week is Midservice Conference!!! We have been here for a whole year and now we will all connect and discuss our experiences at site. Most importantly, Ill be out and about, not sitting at a desk!!!! EXCITED does not explain the way I am feeling haha.<br />
This month I feel like I have been 'thai-napped'( when a Thai person comes, picks you up with either partial knowledge or no knowledge at all about what is about to happen, where you are going, or how long you will be gone) about 10000 times. Since they were 'Thai-nappings' I was not prepared and did not have my camera. I went to a number of great places. Although this is true, this month has been filled with fun and some cultural events that I did catch on camera! In this blog, I will post pictures of the events I went to and try to explain a little about each! I will see you all next month! With an update on Midservice Conference, Son Kran ( Thai New Year) and much more! As always thanks sooo much for all your support! All the emails, calls, texts, videos, skypes, letter,cards, and packages!!!! If you would like to send me something or call shoot me a message and ill send the contact info!<br />

Hello!! I hope you are all doing well. I have fulfilled my
promise for the month of February! (thanks ENITSIRHC!) And here it is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The blog of the month =).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A little update; life has been moving and
progressing smoothly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There were several
changes that I wanted to make in 2014.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
have started a number of them successfully while some of them are still a work
in progress.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One of the, so far, very
successful changes this year, is my refresh, reinstated youth group. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Last year I
had an English group that I would eventually turn into a youth group.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I started it because children would show up
to my house at all times of the day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
then decided in order to have a little “me” time, I should give them a specific
time to show up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was fun for a while,
but due to the way I started this group, I believe it lacked structure. And
that is where the problem started.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One
week there would be 10 kids, next week 5 kids, another week 6 kids but never a
consistent number and never the same kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I realized NOTHING could be accomplished if they are learning these new
skills without the opportunity to build on to what they previously learned. It
would be pointless; except playing fun games with P’som, which, although
fun,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>is not what I wanted.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After a few moments of complaining about how
the kids in Thailand do not understand consistency and structure. I decided to
stop, regroup, and rethink this whole process.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I started thinking ,“What could I have done different?”, “What could I
have done to instill those things into the children earlier on?” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I then ended the group.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>This time
around I made sure all my ducks were in a row.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I went to each school, all classes, and places in the community with
sign up sheets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I also handed out a
letter for parents explaining what I would like to do, where, when and even
why. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I knew that in doing this, lots of
children would say yes simply to please me, but I explained each time, that I
love them all and will still love them if they do not come to group because I
wanted only the children who would commit. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Fast-forward
to now, the group has been great.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
meet once a week for at least 2 hours; often they stay longer ha. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are 2 groups; 1 group grades 3-6 and
another grades 7 and up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are about
30 children in the first group (with about 24 consistent every week) but only 3
in the older group. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The plan is to make
them the leaders for some of the activities for the younger kids. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>First day,
we discussed the structure of the group as well of rules and regulations,
allowing them to suggest rules they felt were appropriate.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They also chose a group name, “ I LOVE YOU
GROUP”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I thought it was cute.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As of now we are still in the trial period of
the group, which ends this Saturday.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
haven’t started any large projects because I want to make sure these kids are
here to stay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am
really happy with the way this group is progressing and see them doing some
amazing activities in the community soon.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>One of our
life skills activities was combined with a bit of cultural exchange.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since it is February, I chose to teach about
Martin Luther King.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The children did not
realize that there are people from all countries in the United States.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was really amazing to hear some of their
responses and to see them fully engaged in the conversation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We discussed Martin Luther King and why he is an important
figure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We then did an “I had a dream..”
activity which you can see in the video posted below.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After all activities were completed, we
conversed about what important characteristics did he have that they could
apply to their everyday lives’.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A
number of them stated that you should treat people well no matter who they are
or where they are from and if you see someone doing something wrong you should
help or tell someone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was really very
happy with this activity and cannot wait to do more. For activities such as
this one, I enlist the help of community members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One of my hopes is to find one consistent
community member so that when I leave, the group can continue. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I love to see the kids thinking, engaging,
and learning all while having fun.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

I have returned from my blogging hiatus! I hope you all have been able to keep up with me via Facebook or email. My resolution this year is to complete at least one blog a month! I will definitely try to complete this task this year because I feel that one of the most important parts of this experience is bringing Thailand to you through this blog! So I'm calling for assistance; in the event that you check this blog and there are no recent updates PLEASE PLEASE send me a nice reminder. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> New Year's 2014 vacation was spent on a secluded island called Koh Mak off the province of Trat. There were no TV's, no Internet, and a small number of people; just what I needed. It gave me time to reflect on the past year in Thailand. As I sat in my hammock outside of my bungalow, with my P' Mimi sitting in the US Army hammock beside me, listening to the waves hit the rocks and the wind blowing in the trees, I could only smile. 2013 was a crazy year filled with ups and downs but at that moment the only feeling I had was gratitude.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> It is truly amazing what can happen in a year. A year ago, I started on this journey with 50 quite amazing people not sure what to expect, packing tons of stuff I would never need and mentally preparing for any conditions. In hindsight, I have come to realize on a journey such as this one there is absolutely no way to prepare. I came with tons of ideas and expectations of what this year would look like for me, but I had no clue. There was more in store than I could imagine. In just a year I have lived and worked in Thailand, traveled all over Thailand, learned a new language, and gained a slew of new friends. All of this in just one year and I can't wait to see whats in store</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">. I have proclaimed this as my year! And it has started off great. Brought in the year with great friends, then headed to the north of Thailand, experienced a Hmong New Year in Nan, Thailand, and then worked a Youth Leadership Camp in Chiang Rai, Thailand and I am finally back home. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> I have so many plans for 2014. I have officially been living in Thailand for one year. I feel as though this first year flew by. I must use this last year to the fullest. I have a number of personal and work goals that I would like to accomplish in this year. I will not give you the skinny just yet but as they happen you will know!!!=). OK OK ill give you the first one! I am participating in a get healthy challenge! and for the first time in a forever I had to weigh myself and without even knowing it i have lost quite a bit. Although this challenge ,for me, is less about the weight and more about being in shape and healthy, it was definitely a great surprise! I am hoping to be ready to complete ...maybe a 5k or a 10k very soon! As I things happen, you will be informed! *SCOUTS HONOR*</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Ok! I am sure you are wondering whats been happening since the last post which was in Sept. I will fill you in with pictures! =) HAPpY NEW YearS!!! Sending lots of love, hugssss and an amazing 2014! </span></span></span><br />

At this camp we stayed at a temple, in which, a monk would walk through every morning really perky and say GOOD MORNING!!! and then just start chatting it up! In Thailand, there are special ways to address monks so knowing this made this very awkward.. like do i just respond normally haha! but he was cool and here he is! I didn't even want to be this close but he made me! </div>

I should not be allowed to type these words anymore
especially since I say it every time I blog but here it goes: “ Sorry it has
been so long since my last post” haha.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
know, I know, I must do better and will try AGAIN this month.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In other news, I have successfully completed
over ¼ of my service. Time is certainly flying!<br />
<o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am sure all of you are wondering what I have been up to
since I wrote last, actually not much has changed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had about 3 weeks from site where we reconnected
with all of the PCV’s, which was much needed, missed them quite a bit. I then
went to Bangkok for PSN training, which is a support network for all volunteers
here in Thailand and that is made up of 7 other volunteers as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Following training, I had a beach itch lol
and had to go, so my friend Mayumi and I decided to go to Koh Samed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We decided to call that weekend our “Jai Yen
Yen Retreat”(ref. jai yen yen in previous post).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was filled with lesson after lesson of jai
yen yen as if I still needed practice. Although this is true, it was definitely
a great weekend filled with laughter!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>After only living in Nong Phai for what is now 5 months, I was missing
my home, my family and my community. When I returned it was as if I had been
gone for months maybe even years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was
welcomed with smiles, lots of questions, and even HUGS (hugs are typically
reserved for family, husbands, wives, boyfriends, girlfriends or those much younger
in age, says a coworker).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was
great!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is my home and it feels like
it!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now I am here, continuing with my language
learning, jai yen yening and living day by day. Oh my pulled groin muscle is healing but Ive now had ecoli from pad thai( but was sick before that so immune system was down), an interesting trip to the dentist for a temporary cap on my tooth lol and tendonitis in my right hand ( which i still dont know why or how lol ).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Although I am enjoying this time
here in Thailand, I recently had my first moment of homesickness due to sad
news from home.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These times are so hard
especially when you are so use to being right there whenever anyone needs you
or when you are typically the family social worker (haha).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At this time, I was at a loss because there
was nothing I could do all the way from Thailand.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This has definitely been a test of faith.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My family is most definitely my backbone and
when one of them is sad or hurting, it hurts me more than anyone could possible
imagine.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anyone can say, write or do
anything to me and I would brush it off I’m sure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When it has to do with family that’s when it
gets to me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With that said had a rough
week that ended with some great laughs with my awesome Thailand family, the
PCVs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If they only knew just how much
this weekend helped soothe me! Thanks guys I LOVE U GUYS!<br />
Also talking with my
family often and seeing their strength is simply amazing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I say if they are trucking along, I have no
reason to be dragging.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will be hard
but I’m channel all of my loves from my siblings to each of the laughs I got
this weekend to keep me smiling this week. Also, today I was searching my room
for my brown glasses and instead stumbled upon what can only be referred to as
a forgotten treasure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My old HTC EVO but
it wasn’t the phone that excited me most, it was what was inside of the
phone... about 50 forgotten videos that seriously made my day! Videos from
about 2 years ago up to right before I left! This was beautiful! Seeing all
those smiling faces and crazies right here with me in Thailand was truly a gift
from God.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The importance of friends being
silly or siblings rapping on your phone is never known until a day like this! I
can’t stop watching =). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This could not
have been found at a more opportune time!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Today’s blog is simply to catch
all of you up on Sasha’s life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />
I also
want to thank those who support me, call me, send me packages (which are always
welcome lol) write me and pray for me on this journey. I have already learned
so much in my short time here, cant wait to see what the Lord has in store for
these two years! With every disappointment comes a blessing…. (A quote I will
never forget that my father texted me when I was in undergrad and the first
time I made a D on anything in my life. I was surely sad about that D haha
maybe a bit dramatic.) Although the news hurt, I’m sure we will get through
this as we have done everything else in our lives’. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Lastly, FEELING ABSOLUTELY BLESSED
not only due to my own blessings but also by the blessings all around me!!! FOR
EXAMPLE: Tuttie Ross is returning from NY shortly after showing at NY fashion
week! And she did great! Ohh and My Charlene is going to send me something
GREAT =)! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Signing out… May your troubles be less and your blessings be
more, and nothing but happiness come through your door. Have a great week (stolen
from IG haha)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Hello againnnn! Well where do I start! OH! MY! GOODNESS! Time
is flying! I know I said I would write more often but time honestly has not
allowed for updates as often as I wished! <o:p></o:p></div>
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>This
journey has already been quite amazing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am learning so much not only about Thai culture and language but also about myself. Anyone who knows me knows that
I am a super busy body and generally I am working on or involved in about 10
things at one time. When I arrived in Thailand and learned about the culture
but most importantly my target group, I was ecstatic.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
would be working with the youth in my new home of Nong Phai doing almost what I
have been doing for years now! Are you as excited yet?!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Of course, I have this long list of ideas,
activities , programs and functions instantly flying through my head.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The only problem with that is, they are my
ideas and what I think my community needs which will not work.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Years and years of social work classes
hearing this same sentiment and I forgot in an instance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The golden rule of entering into a new culture and community: Do not
impose your ideas and ideals onto the community without investigating what they
need or want. I cannot stress the importance of this. Originally I came in ready and rearing to
go. I had the fix it itch what ever IT was.
Everyday I came to work and planned
another activity or rode around and integrated into my community by
meeting people and allowing everyone to know that I am here to help and to
contribute. It didn’t take long for me
to learn that t<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">he latter of the two would be vitally more important in this
culture than trying to come in as misses fix it/ world changer. There is a saying in Thai culture that I’ve
had to embrace “jai yen yen” it’s the way the Thai people roll and after
accepting it and taking a pill of patience, it’s not a bad thing at all. ( Jai
yen yen translates as <span style="font-size: 11pt;">cool hearted but is a very common Thai mindset of being cool in
the face of adversity or not allowing things to stress you out.</span>) the moment I slowed down and stopped rushing this
journey, I began to appreciate it that much more.<br /> I recently
sat down in Bangkok with a friend over some delicious ice cream filled with
tons of wonderful surprises and all we could do was laugh every time we
discovered a new one.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We just smiled at
the idea that we are sitting in Bangkok eating ice cream, and we actually live
and work here.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It still feels so unreal
at times.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This time last year I just graduated
with my MSW and knew that I wanted to work with the youth clinically but wasn’t
sure what exactly that meant.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A year
later, I am in Thailand working with the youth not yet clinically but its
coming haha.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The way these things work
is pretty amazing! I am always preaching to my pretty amazing friends and
family <span style="color: red;">( who will be running the US when I return... I have a friend in just about every field so I’m sure ill be set …that
was not an accident ;) </span>) <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>that
they need to appreciate their accomplishments no matter how small they think they
are ( <span style="color: red;">which it is never really small in fact they are
amazing I cant get over it </span>) and enjoy them while they can but I never
really took my own advice<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(<span style="color: red;">example: when I first arrived here I was definitely looking
into possibilities for the future and I haven’t even started here haha around
this time I took a chill pill Yess I said chill pill sounds like I’m 48 instead
of 26 huh</span> ) Now taking my own advice everything has started smoothing
out for me…I'm getting a little routine going. ( although my bike rides have halted
due to pulling my groin muscle…trying prepare for my first 5k). Being
thankful for every moment… whether something like biking to the dam( <span style="color: red;">me and my bike are now one</span>) , being able to
converse with yii’s and they understand me, eating rat( haha) or having a
little beetle looking creature land on my arm and not flinch lol simply picked it
up and toss it away,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>will make this experience
even more unforgettable.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><br />

Song Kran part of the Thai New Years where you use water to bless family and friends but has become exaggerated due to the heat around this time. Now everywhere you go for three day of Song Kran you will be soaked hahah unless you stay in the house! only ones who are safe are yiis( elders/ grandma's) </div>

Hello sorry it has been so long! The Peace Corps has been keeping us busy! So much has happened since the last post! Training ( which included me buying a ticket in Thai and getting to and from Petchabun in Thai) has ended, I was sworn-in and I am now an official Peace Corps Volunteer.... I'm sure you are thinking what have you been this whole time hahaha! We were Peace Corps Trainees until we passed our language proficiency interview, all of our competencies and made it to MARCH 22, 2013. This was followed IMMEDIATELY by supervisor conference and then counterpart conference...to use the word exhausted is an understatement but I'm trucking along because I can sleep when I'm not in Thailand lol<br />
I am writing from my new home! Petchabun, Thailand!!!! I am currently on day 2 at work in the Sub district Administrative Office! Aka the SAO. It has been pretty good thus far! Lots of introductions, pictures, and smiling! Ohhh and definitely laughing at yourself ( a must)!!! I will say thus far everyone is very welcoming and seems excited to have me! Today I participated in a training for caretakers of babies, the sick, disabled and elderly. Lots of laughter, confusion ( on my end hahah) and randomly requesting me to speak Thai... Oh sing karaoke ... Oh and did I forget to mention the infamous question ....mi fan leeo ru yang ( do you have a boy friend) hahahaha fun times! Just a little summary now I would like to share a personal experience with all of my family and friends!!!<br />
<br />
One of my major concerns (although I never voiced it because I did not want any of my lovely friends or family worrying about me) before coming to Thailand ,was how I may have been perceived due to my skin complexion. From books, google, and other sources, i found that here in Thailand the lighter your skin complexion the better. With a bit of reservation I chose to go anyway. I am a firm believer in walking by faith and not by sight! There were so many signs saying "sasssshhhaaa gooo goo" so I prayed about it and went! Also I absolutely love every part of me (minus my huuuggee feet ....thanks mom hahaha)and that didn't happen over night so my thought process was that I would go and make others feel the same haha.<br />
Since arriving in Thailand I have received the complete opposite of what I was scared of! The people that I have met thus far are wonderfully kind and always call me beautiful ( one person has called me cute lmbo I'm gonna come back with a big head bahahaha) Often I get lots of gawks and stares but I've come to accept it and embrace it due to the surprising conversation that me and my nong saow (little sister) had.<br />
As we were sitting in our room chatting as we tend to do she randomly asked, Wait so are there others like you in America? In shock, I stop what I'm doing and ask for clarification. She responds people with your skin. EXCITEDLY I answered yessss! she goes on saying that until the day I arrived she did not realize that even one African American lived in America. She stated that this was the reasons for all of the stares when we bpaitiow. At this moment I realized that I am not as aware of the world as I thought. I assumed that everyone was aware of diversity even if it was not around them. I explained the way race relations worked in America as she explained race relations here in Thailand. As often as the PC says how important exchanging culture is i never thought it would be like this. The exchange of culture ,in what I like to call Thai-Lish was amazing! Language was no longer a barrier! As I write I'm still in awe of that night. ( I'm glad I was able to use my beautiful family my mini UN as an example of diversity! )This conversation ended with her saying she was glad she could have me for 3 months ( although shed rather keep me) and she hopes more people get to learn as well. The simple act of being present in another country has opened the eyes of not only me or my sister but every other person who asks majak nai?!( sorry lol where r u from) I am happy to be the messenger on this one! Lastly the cutest thing happened to me.... At our goodbye party the cutest little kid around 4 or 5 taps my leg and points up, confused I get a little closer to his level and he points to my hair. I bend further and allow him to touch my hair and he smiles.<br />
<br />
Just a little reminder and last thoughts<br />
...you never know whose world you are changing by just being you (positive or negative) so be the best you you can be!<br />
<br />
OH AND OF COURSE PICTURES!!!<br />

Good Afternoon ( but good morning to most of you 12 hr time difference)! I know that it has been quite a while since I last posted and I apologize! We have been uber busy! I will attempt to get all of you up to speed right now with out individually calling each of you =)!!!!<br />
<br />
For those of you who have not realized it or have been hibernating for the past month I am in Thailand! lolol! Jan 11th, 2013 my father and cousin Jr., took me to the airport to begin the adventure of a lifetime. When we arrived at the airport I was almost 200% positive that my father was going to be balling for that reason I gave him a HUGE hug ( that should hold for about 12 months lol) and hopped on the airplane, QUICK! I HAVE NO CLUE what I would have done if I spotted a tear on his cheek! In San Francisco, 50 other Peace Corp trainees and myself began a day long training that ended with each of us deciding what we thought our "last meal" would be! lol Can you guess what I chose? PIZZA and a platter full of greasy deliciousness! I had a slice of cheese pizza and a platter (that i split with another PCV) full of FRIED zucchini, FRIED ravioli, FRIED chicken, FRIED mozzarella sticks, and FRIED ONION RINGS just to name a few ( notice the pattern bahah)! ...BRINGS BACK MEMORIES ( Sorry being dramatic like my sisters... it slips at times)<br />
The next morning, bright and early, we were off to the airport at 5 am for a 21 hr flight! Once we were on the plane, we sat for an extra 2 hrs for "mechanical issues"....Thanking the Lord that we were not in the air when those were founded. The ride to Thailand not too bad; a little turbulence ( and by little I am referring to the time limit because the turbulence was a bit extreme and scary haha ) with one stop in Japan. <br />
<br />
Finally in Thailand!!!! WHATTT TO EXPECT NEXT!<br />
<br />
THE PEACE CORPS staff was waiting for us as we got off the plane! HUGE smiles and these amazing peace corps sign that gave me instant energy from that long flight eating every 1 hour haha! It was like nothing I could even have dreamt! I could literally not stop smiling! You think it hit me yet! not at all! haha At this point I start questioning my sanity. I left family, friends, work and a WHOLE continent and I am still not nervous in the least! so I take a poll and ask other PCV's how they are feeling and they feel the same way! **whew close call for a minute there I ALMOST believed I could be a little off ;) ** Newho a party bus which actually wasn't a party bus, all Thai buses look like this, came to pick us up and take us to the hotel, which we would stay in for the next week until we moved in with our host families!<br />
<br />
Getting your body acclimated to a 12 hr time change is not as easy as it sounds, if it sounds easy! Through the week we had several different culture sessions, language sessions, events, coffee breaks, and meals that required you to be well rested for the next day. As some of you may have noticed my social networking at 1 and 2 pm your time , its is because I have been falling asleep around 9pm, waking up at 1am -2 am, going back to sleep at 5:30 only to wake at 6. My excitement and motivation have been my red bull for the past week!<br />
<br />
The week started off very easy, simply informing us of what was to come, taking pictures, discussing when and when not to 'Wai' and getting a few shots! Then Tuesday we are informed that we will be meeting the Governor and the Chief of District and we MUST be able to introduce ourselves and state where we are from! I know I know thats exactly what 51 other people were thinking! HOW in the world! haha but with the help of our AMAZING language adjuns we did it and it was amazing! After conquering that feat, you think what could be next, nothing that I cant do!!! boy did they have a surprise waiting on me!<br />
<br />
BIKING! YIKE YIKES YIKE! day one of biking DISASTER... sadly I let the bike get the best of me! and I called it a night early and went to bed! I woke up feeling refreshed, Imessaged some people, and said a long prayer! Next morning I was feeling GREAT and ready to go! ON THIS DAY FRIDAY JAN 19th, me and my bike became (almost) one! haha! I had to ride the bike and not let the bike ride me! We biked over 20 k! and I was still alive although I pulled something on the way in.... I DID IT!!! Thanks to some wonderful counterparts for keeping me motivated and sticking with me even when I was in the back! Once at the hotel, although in pain, we walk to Tesco Lotus which was like a walmart to do some last minute things before we move into homestayyy!!!! I know that I skipped a few important events that took place ie I SAW A BABY ELEPHANT ..like really walking down the street and this amazing opening ceremony! but I want to get to everything without making this tooooooo long! The Thai people are just as friendly as you have probably heard! Being from Georgia, my instinct is to Sawatdee/ Wai everyone as we walk down the street. The reaction does not help, they seem to get almost as excited as me when they hear me speak Thai. For this reason, I continued!<br />
<br />
YAAYYY THE BIIIIGGGG DAY!!! WE MEET OUR HOST FAMILY!!!!<br />
<br />
Saturday was truly the first day I felt a smidge of nerves! All these thoughts racing.... what will they be like, where will they live, WILL I HAVE TO BIKE FAR (PLZ NO), will they be able to speak english, will they like me. Finally the moment came, we met up in the big training room, flower in hand, 51 PCV's on one side and the host families on the other side divided by tambons (kind of like counties) . They continue to make us wait through some reminders for the host families.... And finally with something said in Thai all of the host families pull out these envelopes! They also had NO idea who they would be bringing home.... Next they all open their envelopes and inside are pictures of their new family member! Heart throbbing I can barely see through the excited PCV's as well as their new families. YESSS, my moment has arrived I see someone holding my photo, a horrible photo might I add, I run over, leaving all of my things and greet the young women who actually speaks a little english. She greets me with a smile on her face and brings me to my new MAE (mom). Overly excited, I instantly start spewing out every single piece of language that I had learned! My mae was just as excited as I! My adjun then came and translated for us! They welcomed me, told me I was part of the family, and asked for me to call her mama ( mae)!<br />
<br />
We went to the hub got my bike and went to what I would know as my home for the next 3 months. I met my 2 brothers and Pa. I unpacked into my room and felt right at home! I then helped cook a yummy meal, in which I have no clue how to spell but It was fun and by march 2015 Ill have all that down! Then my sister left and everyone was going to sleep, then Pa came knocked on my door and brought mango with sugar and chile! yummm we sat on my floor attempted some convo but bonded nevertheless!<br />
<br />
Sunday is officially family day! We went to an amazing wedding! I danced as the groom was bringing in the gifts! Everyone was soooooo kind and friendly! people were running up to me giving me hugs and wanting a picture with me! It was absolutely beautiful! I was introduced to everyone as the other daughter although laughs followed. Everyone was quite receptive and to be honest.... I was not sure how I would be received due to my skin complexion. If you do not know here in Thailand the lighter you are the prettier and vice versa. Thankfully, this has not been an issue thus far!<br />
<br />
We then went to the Sumchuck market which is a famous market here in Suphan Buri and everyone was so kind and bright! The childrens faces light up as I smile, wave or wai! Its is truly beautiful! Now we are home! I just taught my sister the word NAP and my brother is heading back to the University and he graduates in May ( just like Reuben!haha)<br />
<br />
In summary! I am great! (No worries) Lots of fun, food and family!!! Sawatdee ka!<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I hope that your holidays have been filled with family, friends and tons of fun!</div>
<div>
<br />
Since I posted last I have spent time with family and friends, had birthday celebrations, a drop in, a party, Christmas with family and about 1000 breakfasts, lunches, and dinners! ( probably gained another me but will be riding a bike for 2 yrs. so I'm sure I'll be okay!!) </div>
<div>
I came to Marietta to spend some quality time with my mother and sisters ( as well as get mom to make a few last minute purchases lol). As my little sister and I create a packing check list of "necessities", I realize there is ABSOLUTELY no way to pack for 2 years ( in my world haha). I have exactly 6 days before I leave for San Francisco, California and 7 days before I leave for <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">THAILANDDDDD</span>!!!! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The craziest part is the nerves have yet to hit me! I have terminated with my precious clients and begun the closing of my life here in the US, I honestly believed that I would be boohooing by now! ( and if you know me I am sure you were/are thinking the same thing haha) I have this amazing sense of calm right now that I am oh so grateful for. I believe a major part of the calm comes from a number of things. Months ago I would have been stressed, worried, nervous, thinking about what ifs and trying to save the world, (and by world I mean people, places, and situations in which I have no control) but recently I had a talk with a good friend and he reminded me that I can't just say I am walking by faith; but I have to do it! And so I did! Literally, everything began to fall into place!<br />
<br />
Now, I am headed to Thailand, all of my sisters are in stable jobs and moving up(or getting there) !, my brother is graduating, and my little sister is working towards all that she wants to do! Proud/ happy is a definite understatement! Knowing that all of my CRAZY( I AM THE ONLY SANE ONE ... NOT LAUGHING) siblings are doing well is all I need! I can leave for Thailand NOW...like today Jan. 5th !!! haha!<br />
SOoOo... as I was backing out of my driveway to take my niece and nephew to load up on junk food, ( thats my job right?! haha) there in the middle of our driveway crept a Crane! We were so confused...He or she looked so out of place! It was so unexpected! How crazy and random! I then find that in several cultures, the Crane has symbolic meaning! ( Thanks Tam)<br />
<br />
HERE IS WHAT I FOUND:<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0e2233; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;">The Crane is considered a messenger of God, or a symbol of communion with God, or Light Beings. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0e2233; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;">It represents entering higher states of consciousness. In China, it represents immortality, long life and happiness. In Ancient Greece and Rome, the Crane was sacred to Apollo and was a herald of spring. In Christianity, it represents goodness, loyalty, good order.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0e2233; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;"> </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0e2233; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: yellow;">ISN'T THAT CRAZY AND SPECTACULAR AT THE SAME TIME!!!! I'M STILL IN SHOCK! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;">This alone increased my excitement for the new year and what was to come for me and my family/friends! And lastly, ALLLLLL of the support and kind words that I have been receiving! To know that several thousand miles away, there are boundless number of people who are supporting you, asking you to post pictures, requesting your address to send you care packages, writing down your account number, just in case, reading your blog, missing you as you miss them and constantly praying for you, can bring about nothing but ease. I have truly been blessed with the people in my life as well as the random strangers who have been placed in my path recently.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0e2233;"> </span></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;"><b>ANNNNDDDD....</b></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px;">Yes, closing all parts of my life would seem very difficult... packing my whole life in 2 suitcases and a carry on would be scary.... but if this journey was not meant for me, I would not be on it! So this time next week me and my 2 suitcases will be on an airplane heading to Thailand! I hope this has helped some of you WORRYWARTS chill a bit! Love you all! Until next time! ( in Thailand that is) </span></span><br />

Good Morning All!</h3>
<br />
Today felt like a perfect day to get this blog up and running! Woke up with 100 things I needed to update the world on. I decided to start a blog so that all of my amazing family and friends can keep informed throughout this amazing journey. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">SOOOOO.....in case you have not heard IM MOVING TO THAILAND JAN 2013 (with the Peace Corps) annnnddd I RETURN IN 2015!!!!</span> </b>I know I know... "WHAT! OMG! ARE YOU SERIOUS! WOW TWO YEARS! NOOOO! I NEED YOU HERE! WHAT IF I GET MARRIED OR HAVE KIDS!" I've heard it all since announcing my latest endeavor. For the life of me I cant understand why so many are so surprised. Anyone who knows me knows I cant sit still for too long. The decision to accept my invitation to Thailand was not an easy one. Everything was falling in place for me. I recently graduated from the University of Ga with my Masters in Social Work. I had a job that I love, doing what I love, with great people. I was semi settling into the Athens, Ga life with my amazing friends and little big brother. And all of a sudden as I was eating lunch with a great friend of mine I receive an email. She will tell you, my heart and head were racing, my hands were shaking, and the only thing I could think was "is this really happening?".<br />
<br />
This process was long and extensive to say the least. Although I knew I applied, I had not heard any updates recently, I assumed either I did not make this departure date or it was not in God's time. I accepted both and moved on. Well apparently, I was wrong. I then did one of the only things I know to do when I am overwhelmed with emotions; I called my amazing father! If you have never met this man... <b><u>YOU SHOULD</u></b>. The excitement and calm in his voice brought instant ease to my heart and mind. It took about 2 days (out of the 7 the Peace Corps allows for response) for me to pray and to realize that if this was not part of HIS plan for me, this door would not have been opened. Since that day I have not felt any emotion other than excitement ( no nervousness or anything haha YET) And that brings us to today!<br />
If you are wondering what I will be doing here are my duties<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: lime;"><u>EXCITED YET</u><i>!</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"> haha! I know I am! The month of December brings alot of sad times ( ending and closing pretty much everything) with the understanding that a new experience awaits! Also the month of December brings celebration i.e. brother's senior football gala, a number of graduates, and BIRTHDAYSSSS!! which means fun times and new memories with my wonderful family and friends. Between All of these fun-filled events, I have to find time to pack up, RIDE MY BIKE (hahaha), and prepare for departure. At this point, I may be a little behind on the packing up part =). The excitement has been overwhelming lately and it sends me off task, googling Thailand and everything about it. I will get it together TODAY ...hopefully. </span></span></h4>
