My good-bye party at Namkhunvittaya school's field seemed surreal, standing in front of attentive 1400 students and the whole staff, dressed up in my rural teacher outfit, consisting on a long skirt below the knee, formal shirt and granny shoes, holding 2 big bouquets, trying to hold back some tears unsuccessfully, and on top of everything, singing!


Until now I still wonder, how did this happen? Going back to when I lazily sent an application and after a few emails with the the English Crazy Club took a bus from Singapore to Bangkok, and then a train to Ubon
