Stay tuned for the latest news!
Since last I posted, I had a wonderful training day with my colleagues from school. I learned a lot of stuff, mostly about teaching methods, but also about my job situation (I work in a rather peculiar school, during an even more peculiar year, it seems...). I also discovered that kosher dishes can be truly delicious! ^_^ I had the occasion to talk to my favorite comrades, and they're amazing... I know I'll miss them when I leave, whether it's next week or in June.
On Thursday, I took advantage of an annoying flu to stay home, think, and send some resumes. I decided (thanks for all the advice!) that I'll keep my job until the principal gives me the boot. I'll do my very best to improve, but not to the point of compromising my own nature. When I went back to work on Friday, one of my colleagues told me she heard my students worrying about me while I was absent. She said they really seemed to like me, so I thought I'd be honest with them. I had enough privacy to tell two of my classes what was happening with me, and they were extremely supportive. I don't think that's gonna be enough to change how the principal views me, but I gotta admit that Dead Poets Society moment gave me wings. Despite being chatty in class, my students are really good people. I'll miss them, too...
My mom and dad both told me that whatever happened with the whole job situation, they felt it'd turn for the best. My Love is, as usual, ferociously on my side. I'm so lucky to have them all!

My dad got married last week. It wasn't really official or anything, as gay marriage isn't accepted in Thailand, but he said it was beautiful. I'm so happy for him! ^_^

I tried to cancel my Dolkot order Thursday night, just to be on the safe side, financially. Their rep replied really quickly, saying he unfortunately couldn't do anything, 'cause the package had already been sent! Hehehe. I guess I'll be poorer, but I'll have a new lil' guy to keep me company. Maybe I'll even get to bring him to the next meet-up, since EMS states that he already left Korea.

Meet Elizabetha!
She's not really a new member of the group, as she's been somewhat around for a little while already, but she now has her own body and face. Yay~! Screw you, financial logic! Yeah. ;
Anyway, I took a few pics of her yesterday:
I also resized the pics I took in the last weeks of October and uploaded them to my Photobucket. Here's a sample from a shoot I did with Shehara:
...And a shot of the little plant I rescued about a year ago. It was so tiny back then!
