I really don't feel 16. I'm also beginning to realize that being in an Asian country I act like I'm 10, because it's cute. I didn't purposely do that, it just happened. So I act kinda derpy most of the time...especially when I'm home alone. Which I hate! I get so bored and lonely when I have to stay home! Ugh.....but yeah I'm a pretty derpy 16 year old now. But on the Brightside, I am more than likely going to Japan the summer of 2015!! Woohoo!!! \(^o^)/ so I'm super excited for that! and a plus with that, I'm already learning Japanese so when I go I can do stuff myself! That's how I cool I am guys, I can speak 4 different languages! BAM! I am not Chef Emeril, hahaha! oh I crack myself up sometimes...

I'll admit it: I am the worst blogger EVER!!!! Every time I'm on the computer I always forget, hahaha! But it's ok because I will now give you an update!
     So first things first: I am now off of school for a month long holiday! The exchange students got off early because we don't have exams, (lucky us), so I have a little longer of a break than the Thai students.
      Friday Pin and I experimented in the kitchen (*evil chuckles*). We somehow managed to make something like a brownie. Here's what was in it: milk, flour, eggs, butter, cocoa powder, milk chocolate, and on top, dark chocolate chips! IT WAS SO AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS. we were really surprised that it had worked so well. And then we got creative and decided to do zombie makeup! It was so much fun! All we did was take liquid glue, apply a thin layer and when it dries you tear it and use makeup to make it look bloody and gross. Pin and I get a little crazy when home alone!
     Saturday I went to the bowling alley at the Sunee Grand Hotel and Mall with the other YE (that's what the Thai call us, so that's what I'm going to use) in my city for my birthday! Yeah, it's actually today...but we celebrated early! We played one game of bowling and then my friend Mia from Seattle, Washington, bought me a Dairy Queen ice cream cake! And you know how in the US, when you buy an ice cream cake, it usually has cake in it? Well here, it's COMPLETELY ice cream! So we went down to the basement of Sunee because they have this cafĂ©, put the cake in the middle of the table, everybody grabbed a spoon, and we just ate the cake! It was really funny; people kept on giving us the weirdest looks! It was soo much fun! Then after I was picked up by my aunt, we went out for dinner to celebrate my aunt's birthday, my host cousin Pang's birthday, my birthday, and to end my host dad off to Germany! He's going with Rotary! So we had amazing food and my aunt brought cupcakes that were sooo good!!! and we kept the leftovers so that's what I've had for breakfast for the past couple of days! My family that was there gave me makeup as a gift, which is awesome!!! and then Pin told me when we were leaving that I actually had another gift and we were going there right now. I thought, where could we be going at 7 at night? They took me to a store called Robinson and we went to the stuffed animal department. Ok, so for the past couple of weeks all I've been talking about is finding a stuffed cat. So that's what I got! they let me pick anything wanted as long as it wasn't too big to fit in my suitcase, and I got a big fluffy cat! Now, whenever I'm just sitting around its always in my lap!
     Yesterday  I basically sat in my room, hahaha! that's my Sunday adventure!
So about the whole pictures thing...yeah I'm probably going to post them on facebook XD so just be prepared to see that I've uploaded 200+ pictures!

School has been amazing so far! It can get really hot, especially in the morning because for half an hour we have to sit outside for an opening flag ceremony and it's SO HOT. Sweating is pretty much my new sport. And speaking of sports, I finally saw my first horse in Thailand!!! There's a little night market close to my house and they have a white miniature horse that is just sooo super narak!!! (Thai for cute).
  I'm really good friends with the exchange students in my city too, because all but one of us now go to the same school! There's a boy and girl from Mexico, a boy from Germany, a girl from Taiwan (who goes to a different school than the rest of us), and a girl from Seattle. But I'm friends with a lot of Thai kids at my school too. And it's really funny when I'm at the mall and I see white people. I sort of freak out and spaz. They're mainly old white men that retired here after their service. But it's still crazy to see them!
  Japanese is coming along well! And pretty soon the PDG for D3340 is going to set up an afterschool tutoring class for us to help us learn the language, which will be uber helpful! and he said that if after 3 months we don't need language anymore, we can do cooking, or dance, or whatever we want! So this is turning out pretty well so far~
