Kanchanaburi.
I saw that word sifting through the internet.
I remember that place. I was there 4 years ago on a school. I remember Moo Baan Dek. I remember the friends I made; none of them particularly close anymore. But it was such a good time learning about myself, being humbled and learning from the people around me.
I remember the children in that school, especially Nikky and how I thought that his head was too big for his body. I remember Tun Pai, the darling of the school and how she would run to me in the mornings at school and abandon me when she wants to go off to play with her friends. Communicating with kids using sign language is amazing, it's surprising how much can be communicated across despite the language barrier.
I remember the shooting stars. The nights the girls would lie in the courtyard and watch the stars. I remember the light and sound festival. The lanterns we let drift down the river. The fireworks.
I remember the plans to go back to that place after being done with JC. That plan never materialised as the team went separate ways, each with plans of our own.
Just wondering how many out of the 16 of them would share the same sentiments of nostalgia that I'm experiencing right now.
