classes

Well, I was right about my classes this term. I got two classes instead for three. I guess I will be eating nothing but rice and beans for the next six weeks. I guess I will have more time to work on other things. I'll just have to figure out what.

Bits and Pieces

Well, I haven't fallen off the edge of the planet, it just seems like it sometimes. I haven't posted in quite a while, because I haven't been able to think of anything worth posting about. My life is pretty boring most of the time, despite living in a great place. I get caught up in the round of everyday living, going about my business and not really doing anything interesting.

I just finished a term at XYZ school. I had very nice classes and will miss them. I don't know what I will get next term, enrollment is very low, so I may only get two classes instead of three. While that would be enjoyable from a working point of view, it would be kind of hard on my wallet, so I hope that doesn't happen. I will let you know what happened later in the week.

I'm going to have a week of at the beginning of November. I am thinking of going down to Nakhon Sawan province and doing some bird watching. The largest fresh water swamp in Thailand is located there, Bung Boraphet, and it is one of the best places to see waterfowl and migratory species. I will have to see about that though.

Interesting Trivia Fact of the day: I have lived here in Thailand for four years, and have never had a microwave! Yes, life without a microwave is in fact possible! Wow, life in Thailand must really be rough. No, we have microwaves here, I just never have bought one, although I am thinking of doing so.
