finally i have finished my thai lessons with aajan(teacher) Benjamas. gosh, wasn’t easy squeezing a whole load of Thai language in me within 4 months. but during this period i have learnt alot from my Thai lecturer. she is so dedicated that she even brought Thai traditional costume to class for us to play dress up. and on the last day of class she cooked tom yam kung for all of us!!!! how cool!

Not only she taught me about spoken Thai, writing, intonations, traditions and culture, she really helped me out on my life. she is really kind and she is a friend that i don’t want to loose.

so much fun learning thai (although i did struggle to remember all 44 alphabets and all the vowels). now i can read write and speak!!! (not too fluent though)

will update again on this another. but for now, this goal is DONE!

i learn how to write and READ!!!!! hell yeah, i can read like really simple words only. but still… its something.

i really enjoy my thai class very much. nice teacher, and very very nice classmates. =)
sure do hope i can score this subject and will be able to converse in thai fluently~

yesterday i took my first thai class. learn really basic stuff. the lecturer is very nice and sweet in person. she even gave me a thai name. I was given the name “rung-napaa”, which means beautiful morning sky. =)

i enjoyed myself a lot, but the written part was a lil scary. the characters in thai are so curvy and complicated!!! _
