The long awaited picture of me in a uniform:

I’ll do you one better, here’s a group of uniforms:

And what’s better than group? A swarm.

Yesterday was orientation. It involved a lot of performances, learning about Thai culture (I ate a bug, it was already dead and was intended to be eaten), and me coming to the realization that the Thai language is going to kick my ass.

Part of orientation also involved making krathongs out of styrofoam, flowers, and leaves for the Loy Krathong festival in November (a.k.a. the floating lanterns scene from the movie Tangled).

I feel like Moses’ mother, sending her sweet little prophecy baby boy down the Nile river in this picture. So serene.

I have provided some visuals of the orientation experience.

Sawadee ka!
