Bulletin Update

This was my last week at Legacy. Since the school year is over some of my students have already left and are staying with friends or relatives in the area during the break from school. Of the five graduates, two will be staying here to help at Legacy, two will be going back to Burma to help teach there, and one will be helping an organization in Chiang Mai. I will be leaving this weekend- I know that it will be so incredibly hard to say goodbye. I've had a really great time teaching and getting to know the students, and I will miss them terribly. I am leaving here on Saturday night, and I will arrive in the States on the evening ofthe 13th. I will be giving a presentation at church next week (the 19th). I'm sad to leave, but I'm glad that I get to speak about Legacy and to share my experiences with everyone back home.

Bulletin Update

This week was final exam week, and it went well! I think everyone (myself included) still isn't convinced that the school year is over already. We finished up exams on Thursday, and Friday afternoon we took the students bowling, which was so much fun! They went one time during the Feast and have been wanting to go back ever since. For most (or maybe all) of them, this was only their second time bowling, but a lot of them are way better than me! (my bowling skills aren't so great though...) We went to an enormous shopping center in Chiang Mai- the bowling alley was on the very top floor and had lots of black lights, so anyone who was wearing white glowed a lot. The bowling balls were florescent, and there was lots of dance music, so the atmosphere made it a lot of fun too! I think everyone had a really good time. This Sunday is the end of the year awards ceremony, so that should be nice-everyone's looking forward to it! We're having the ceremony on the Sextons' property, and then going to dinner at a restaurant afterward. After that I'm going to stick around for the next week to pack and say my goodbyes- I'll be back in the States on the 13th.
