Second host family time!

Friday, I was at school most of the day. The morning was pretty boring, minus a kid with a baby squirrel, but the afternoon was spent being thoroughly entertained by random groups of Thai friend-people, of both age groups. After school, me, Alex, and Mama Sea all went to dinner and met Pat plus her mother at Fuji, and ate yummy food, and then headed back to our seperate homes. At home, I had like half an hour to finish packing, and then all my stuff got trucked out to the sidewalk, where we met my second host parents + host cousins, Marut and Namwan, who are staying at the house. We all drove to my new house, in two cars, and then my stuff got trucked into my new room, and then I said goodbye to Mama Sea, and... yeah. I spent a few hours putting all my stuff away, and then I went to sleep.

Saturday I woke up pretty late, and was given some sandwich thing for breakfast. Soon after I was finished eating that, my Mama Bu was like "Oh, we're going to lunch~" Um, okay then, haha. So she, my host cousins, and I all went to lunch, where we had... noodles whose name I can't remember (the white ones in sauce), plus pad mee, som tum, and fried chicken. Woo. Then we went home. Later, we all went to the mall, and had dinner-- with my host dad, at sizzler. This is now the second time I've gone to sizzler on the first day with a new host family. After that, me and Mama Bu went food shopping, and got cereal and milk and juice and some other things. Later in the evening, at home, I tried to go on the internet, but for some reason... my computer doesn't seem to work with the internet here. skgbsegbrstjgsbsjkrgbr.

Sunday, I ate cereal for breakfast. Exciting. After that my host mom was like "Want to watch TV?" and I was like "Sure, why not." I have nothing at all better to do. So I spent a while flipping through channels, watching a couple of minutes of anything that seemed entertaining, and then continuing on. After a while my cousins came in and were like "Hyuu mai?" And I was like "Um, it doesn't really matter, I'll go eat." Which is not really what I said, but it's what I want to say every time somebody asks me that. But anyway, we went and ate grilled meat and sticky rice and som tum, and it was quite delicious, and then we went to the mall. We were going to watch 2012, in Thai without subtitles or anything... which we did. It was like 3 hours long, too. It was probably still the right movie to choose to watch in Thai, though, out of any there-- because the good parts of that movie had nothing to do with the acting, but more with the ridiculousness, which was pretty sweet. After the movie we kind of wandered around for like 2 minutes, and then we saw somebody who was introduced to me as "a doctor." After a bit I realized that this was somebody they somehow knew from school, as they are both studying to be pharmacists. He, apparently, was treating us to some kind of snack. As we were walking, Marut whispers in my ear "He is interested in her, but she does not like him." Hahaha. But he took us to eat donuts, which... I didn't really want. Lame timing, Doctor Man. But whatever, then we went home, and then, it was now. And I am writing this.

Not super interesting, but I am with a new family, so oh well. Tomorrow I have school again, which should be nice. I really like my new family, but spending all of multiple days with people you barely know, and speaking a fair amount of thai with them, is just kind of exhausting.

Note from when actually posting this-- after dinner: Today we were talking about fruit, and then they were like "Pineapple and tomato..." "What?" "If you eat pineapple and tomato together, it tastes like apple." "Really?" So I tried it... and it didn't really taste like apple. But oh well.
