It's the time of the year when people start leaving back to Thailand. I have done 2 farewell parties so far. The first time was with N'Dao who actually already left Japan a few weeks back. Then the second time was for N'Bow who will leave Japan next week. The parties were held at the same SASHIMI PLACE near school. For N'Bow's party, we also went to Marikoji Cafe for some deｓserts too. There's nothing much to say. We really had a good time with great food. So, this blog is going to be all about the food we had :) Let's start!

We asked a lady to take group photo for us. She then asked, "What's your name?". We said "Wassana" <-- which is P'Nha' name. Then she did something we totally didn't expect. She started yelling "Wassana-chan, Wassana-chan, Wassana-chan, BRAVO!!" while taking a snap shot of us!!! Was it some kind of a trick to get us smile?!?! haha =P
That lady was this Mika-chan, someone who's related to the owner of the restaurant. Oh gosh.. this lady was just INDESCRIBABLE!!!
Then, we moved to Marikoji Cafe and had all this

Before updating about my long Hokkaido trip, lemme go ahead with a short blog for now. ^^
Today a few friends and I went to Kohoku Kotogakko School to talk to students about Thailand. This school has an aim to create good relationship with Asian countries, so they do have lots of cultural exchange programs. As fas as I know, they do exchanges with schools in Korea, China and Thailand. Every year in December (this year for the 2nd time), 11th graders go on a school trip to travel and visit high school in Thailand for 4 days. That's why they wanted us to visit the school and get students familiar with Thai cultures and all.
The school is in Kobe, so it took us 2 hours to get there. We were told that we can begin with a bit of our self introduction and then simply answers students' questions which they have already prepared. But oh gosh... NO QUESTIONS from my students!!! I just had to come up with something to talk about right there. So yeah, I did a bit of geography + language classes with a few quizes on and off the whole 1 1/2 hours!!
Oh yeah... one student asked whether I know "Golf and Mike"!! For those who don't know, Golf and Mike are pretty famous here now. They did a Japanese debut song with Yamapee. The song was used for Volleyball Tournament a few weeks back and became a big hit. They appeared on several famous shows on TV since then. So yeah... the classroom turned to an entertainment report. I told them Golf and Mike are brothers and they have 3 more siblings, blah blah blah blah... just to kill time. (แบบว่าหมดมุขสุดๆ....ฮาฮา)

The song's called "Fever and Future"
what a costume!
N'Bow said to put an MV here too. Haha.. what a dance!
Anyways.. anyways... let's not get too much about them. Well, where am I now? Ahh.. ahh... I started losing what to say. haha =P Well.. well.. I had a good time. The teachers there were so opened and friendly. Students were quite ok too. (They asked to teach them how to say "where's toiley?" in Thai. They insist it's a necessary thing to remember ^^ Maybe they are right! =P) I hope they have a good journey to Thailand. :)
members for today : N'Bow, Mai, P'Chompoo, Nott (from Kyoto) and Kob&Snow (from Kobe)
