Christmas, New Years, Sickness, Polio and whatever else has happened!!!

O dear Lots to talk about sorry i haven't blogged...but life goes on! So Tis the season of hot weather and bugs! ya bugs are not my friend these day nor ill they ever be! I've recently recovered from a spill of Dengue Fever and let me tell you not tooo fun! pretty much the flu only 30 times worse. One day i couldn't even get out of bed i was so tired! Not fun. so i spent most of my Christmas holidays in bed with the exception on Christmas eve. Christmas eve we spent at dreamworld! Which is like a Callaway park i guess but maybe a little bigger. So we spent the day get sick on rides and eating carnie food and getting ripped off by silly carnival games that we swear we can beat haha. (we lost of course) after using ever ounce of energy i had we finished up at dreamworld and went out for some Christmas eve dinner! yay! it was good we went and had some real steak and such! not really traditional Christmas dinner but i mean this whole season has been a little crazy. So i woke up early Christmas morning to talk to the family on skype and open the presents they sent me which was pretty cool! I was pretty tired tho so i may have been a little scrooge haha. so Christmas day the plan was to get together and just spend the day doing whatever with the exchange kids because thai people dont celebrate Christmas(they just decorate for it) Then we would go out for a traditional Christmas dinner which a pub was holding that we often go to. i made it to lunch before i was falling asleep from exhaustion soo i was pissed off and sick and made my way slowly home and back into my bed where i spend the rest of my Christmas day...talk about a bummer! i was very bah hum bug the next 3 days! I adventured to the hospital and get some drugs and what not wooo good times for sure! it wasn't until the 30th before i left my house again. I was starting to feel human again and definitely had a little more spunk in my step. Jessica another exchange student from the states was supposed to go on vacation with her host parents but had an allergic reaction to something and got a rash so her host parents said she couldn't go....weird i know...so i ended up adopting her for the next 5 days. So on the 30th we went out for some food and just hung around the mall. We then adventured back home to spent the night watching silly movies and facebook creeping hahah! New years eve rolls around and we find ourselves still in our pj's on the couch at 4 pm haha thinking we should probably shower and get ready to go out for the night! So we get all pretty and head out to meet up with other exchange kids! so we are wondering down KahoSong road having fun we find this pretty cool elephant that i must say was rather cuteee!! So we had a fun time there and all of a sudden it was midnight....no countdown....hmmmm thats unusual...then we all scream yayyy! haha so we adventure do a little dancing and then head home...which took us to hours and walking dwn dark alleys at 3 haha scary! haha don't worry we were invincible at this point soo nobody messed with us! haha. So we slept most of new years day and the day after that as well haha. so thats the down low from Christmas till now pretty much.
Today i switched families with another exchange student Bryan so i am now currently living in my own apartment that my new host parents own. Wooo ahah its pretty much just a big room haha with a bathroom but its an escape i guess somewhere i can call my own for the next couple f months. My new family is really nice so im happy about that! :) So we will see what exciting adventures come around in the near future. School starts again tomorrow till the 6th of February then im done for the rest of the year wooo haha excitingg!
A couple of weeks ago my rotary club joined the end polio campaign so we got to go to a school and give oral vaccines to little kids probably around 5 or 6 i would guess. Half of them cried half of them were good but none the less it was quiet the experience so there are a few photos from that.
There was also a Rotary Christmas party that we all attended so we went to a museum and hang out with all the kids from our district so it was good to see everyone. so theres some pictures from that...enjoy
