Final installment because it's about the final two days spent with the Thai teachers and students...
On the very last night, the school organised a Thank You Party for us. Dinner was held at the parade square, and all teachers and students ate together. Definitely never encountered before such happening. *hah*
I was touched by the school's effort to plan such a warmth farewell party.
All the students had their dinner on the mats, while the teachers and us had tables and chairs. But I prefer coziness, so I went to join them... =))
Once I flashed my camera and started taking photos, a bunch of kids suddenly appeared, all wanting to take photos with me. *HAH!* And a while later, I couldnt find my food. Not that I mind. =)
My ah girl and I! She's been such a sweet girl. Always cuddles me from the back. There was once when her older brother brought her to me, and she was crying so badly. Then I found out that she missed home after going back for the weekend (the school is a boarding school, so students as young as 5 years old have to stay in the school for the week). So poor thing, right? Have to stay away from home at such a tender age...
Me and KK again. I miss him badly! He was one of the minority students who cried badly on the last day when we were about to set off for the airport. Oh man, I can't wait to see him again!
Me and Puppet Boyfriend. He gave me a teeny weeny teddy bear, which totally caught me off guard cos I didnt expect any gift from anyone. So sweet, right?!?! And he's also one of the few who cried on the last day, which also surprised me cos he's quite man and tough (he and his friends helped us to carry the tables up and down the stage during our puppet rehearsals. So much more helpful and selfless than some of the Singapore guys I know).
Me and Favourite. He's very very disturbing cos he always disturbed me. He was dressed up like that because he and his friends were to perform a dance, however their performance was cancelled. What a pity. Anyway, he made me a simple-looking bracelet. And oh, he wears hot pants to bed too. Just thought it'd be interesting to share. *hehs*
Eh...some random students whom I've never met before until then.
Yes, the school has lots of guys who are feminine. Nothing unusual, especially in Thailand.
Potential women in the future.
One of the good good friends I've made...LIAN JIA!!! He gave me his address in Chiang Rai! *hahah* So yeah, I'll definitely write to him because I'm dying to know his real name. *HAH!* In fact, I'm dying to know ALL their real names. We've been giving all sorts of funny labels to the students because it was too difficult to remember their sign name, much less to say their real Thai name.
The guy in white wears bra, even during normal school hours.
My basketball buddy!
The art team and our favourites.
Me and President. Quite sad to leave him too. Wonder how he's doing now...
Stevie! So cute.
All of us performed the sign language song for the school again. Some immature and selfish people wanted to cancel it, but luckily Mummy (the lady on the 2nd right) and the other teachers insisted that we performed. *HAH!* Seriously, the sign language song is definitely more meaningful than some Chinese/Hokkien songs. At least the hearing-impaired children and the Thai teachers can understand the sign language song. Btw, I'll upload the videos that Kangli took during the Cultural Exchange day. Later.
Oooo00hh... she's Stevie's girlfriend. *hahah* So cute lah...=)
A final group photo with all the Thai teachers. The school bought traditional handmade bags for the girls and pants for the guys. Nothing beats the Thais' generiosity and hospitiality. Miss all of them very much... By them I mean the Thai teachers.
It seems like the party is never going to end. Endless photo-taking sessions.
Shucks. I like this photo, but it's soooo blur!!! What a waste. And I just realised that I didnt take many photos with Stevie leh. Shucks, shucks, shucks!
Oh, me and Eleanor both think that this guy looks like Lester! Like, seriously.
Heh heh. He really has the goalkeeper sey, right? Say you agree.
After the party, the six of us went for our last round of shopping at Anusarn Market.

At last. The final day has arrived.
I slept for only two hours because I was busy preparing gifts for the students the previous night.
Bought special gifts to those who are closer to me, people like KK, Stevie, President, my ah girl, Hardworking, Puppet Boyfriend, Joker/Commando, Favourite, Lian Jia, Goalkeeper, Basketball Buddy and a few others. The rest of the students got sweets. And I also developed photos for them! I seriously hope they'll cherish it. *hah!*
Bought lovely handphone accessorises and chocolates for the teachers too. =)
Morning was a rush. Busy giving out the correct gift to the correct person. Busy taking photos. And busy crying.
All Lian Jia's fault lah. He gave me a long hug, and suddenly all emotions erupted within me. Tears just started to flow like nobody's business. And I couldn't turn them off. *sigh*
So my eyes were a little swollen throughout the morning assembly. And we had to go on stage to bid our final goodbye and thank-you. *haiz* So embarrassed.
Adisorn, the vice-director and me.
That's right. You dun have any breasts, so stop feeling for any. *hah!*
Didnt know 'BeBe' is in Lester's room. And ya, I love the cowboy hat. Reminds me of Stevie cos I saw him wear one before. *hehs*
Me and the S$400+ Dior shades and the cool cool cowboy hat. Erm, actually, it should be Me and the S$150 second hand Dior shades and the cool cool cowboy hat. Oh wells, who cares. But I like the shades though. *heehee*
I've got a patriotic friend! Well done.
Anyhow, hope you have enjoyed yourself and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, MY FRIEND!!! =))
