I think I have worked 13 of the last 14 days, including today (a Sunday). By next Saturday, that number will be 19 out of 20. It wasn't supposed to be quite like this, but this weekend I am teaching an extra 6 periods for a part-time teacher who is sick. It is a class I have taught several times, so it's not too bad. Plus a little extra cash will be nice.
Last night we had dinner at the Suan Lum Night Bazaar. Suan Lum is across the street from Lumpinee Park, in the heart of Bangkok. I've bought many presents here that I personally exported to the United States at Christmas.
There are many restaurants here, but my favorite is the big "beer garden" section. Every kind of Thai food stall is here, along with a small selection of Thai and German beers. We had Northern Thai sausage, pork, chicken and beef shish-ka-bobs, fried spring rolls, and heifenwisen beer.
It was a little pricy (but still around US$5 for two) and the entertainment (a band with singers and dancers) was not quite professional quality, but it was a fun night out anyway.
I would love pricey to be $5. Just sayin'.
Yes I know. heh. I am not so cynical to not appreicate a pricy $5 meal :)
