I have to say, Korean Air is very nice- I got slipper, a pillow, a blanket, and I got a tv with movies and music, including K-Pop! The only thing I didn't like was the airline food. At first it was amazing! I had Bibimbap for the first time and for airline food it wasn't bad. And then after that it was bad. Being on an airplane for 18 hours is horrible! It got better though because while flying to Bangkok I sat next to a woman from Thailand so I had a good time chatting with her! I didn't eat my dinner on that flight though-2 cups of ginger ale later and I still felt like I was going to vomit. Bleh. So I just slept like the entire time. The hotel my aunt and I stayed in was very nice! She bought be dinner from 7 eleven; a spicy chicken burger, delicious sliced bread that was sala cider and milk flavored, and something that I probably don't want to try again- hot chili squid lays. No matter how adventurous you say you are for trying different food you probably won't like these unless you like squid.
        But anyhow, the flight from BKK to Ubon was nice, it was only 45 minutes and I got this cold chicken pot pie like snack and that was very good to eat when you are peckish. I arrived at Ubon and was welcomed by my host families! It was great to finally meet them after so long! And then I left with my first family and we went out to breakfast and then home. I tried some delicious fruit that you can only find in Thailand! And then we went out shopping for my school uniform and I got my phone, which I really like by the way; it's very nice! And then we went out for dinner at a Chinese-Thai restaurant that was very good, except when your stomach is still upset from airline food!!! But my host mom ordered me shrimp fried rice and I loved it! Although by that time my stomach hated me for killing it with new foods.
       I love my room! I have a desk with a lamp and tons of books, a reading lamp by the bed and the bed sheets are super cute! Plus, I have a body pillow which is amazing! And what's hilarious is that I recently purchased a book called Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult and her daughter; my host sister Pin has the same book! I thought that was awesome. And now I have unpacked and get to hang out. Oh and by the way in  case any of you were wondering the weather here is pretty nice; it's hot and all but there's air conditioning which really you don't need if you put your fan on.
     And there are super cute dogs running around that are friendly. So just in case, it's a good thing I have my rabies shot!
