Ooh, neat. What are you going for?

Yeah, I don't worry about student loans, because they do prorate them to what you can afford. Sure I may be paying them back for a long time, but I think the education is worth it. The current ones bug me though because I don't really have any credits. >_<

We're teaching english as a second language in an orphanage in Cheng Mai. Will be SO COOL.

I'm due for a lot in bursaries, lucky, and my important grades (drama, english, history) are nineties, so we'll see if I get scholarships. I'm applying a lot of places and seeing if anyone offers anything.

How long are you gonna be there again? And do you have to know their language for ESL? I have friends who have gone to teach English in Japan, but I think they were English classes in schools, which might be a little different. All I know is that they had to speak Japanese. Dude, I can speak English, I'll go teach, if it will get me out of here.

Awesome. Yeah, I was paying $125 a quarter with grants and such, but when I had grade issues at Uni, that kinda went out the window. Now I'll have to reapply, hope for scholarships, and hope the grant people forgot that I totally failed the first time. *Shakes fist at mother*

*nod* I don't speak a word of Thai. But there're only little kids so it'll be mostly numbers which we can do with out fingers, and little things like that.

Not too hard. We're there for three weeks.

Man, that sucks, ow. Good luck!

Gotcha. Still cool. And you'll prolly learn a bit while you're there too, which is always awesome. *Jealouses some more*

3 weeks. Not bad. Too much longer and it might get old, but that'll be fun. Do you get to be touristy too?

And yeah, thanks. I really still need to decide what my majors are gonna be when I go back though. >

We do indeed. Weekends and a couple of days at the end. We're teaching in two places, too, so there aren't even that many lesson plans needed.

Neat. I soo want to hear about it afterward!

I don't know much about Thailand, admittedly, so it will be the awesome.

:D
