Days 1-3 After a grueling 19hr flight I finally made it to Phuket! My cold really acted up on the plane with the lack of fresh and and pressure when landing and taking off, which made for a pretty miserable flight. However, the awesome Korean food and over abundance of new-release movies made up for it. When I landed in the airport I was greeted by a man holding a sign with my name for the bun...

HOLY COW...or should I say DOG?!
I can't even get over Ms. Genna...I feel like you're living a fiction story right now. It all seems a world away...I loved reading your new entry. It seems all so great. I'm sure it isn't perfect and their have been some stresses and struggles, but you wouldn't be able to know. Everything you talked about seemed so wonderful. I'm so glad that you're safe and the program is a trustworthy program. And even better that you have made such close friends in such a short time. You and I both know that is like half the battle. The beaches and the bungaloo and the hotel look like a fantasy place...well everything but your crazy room. JUST KIDDING! Still looks better than mine. Hahaha. Anways, I miss you tons. I feel like it will only be a couple weeks unitl I see you again but I know that's not the case...it's so weird. I want to tell you all my stories and I want to hear all of yours. Can't you just fly home for a weekend and we can swap stories in the hot tub once a month. Hhahah.. If only my love. But remember to keep me in mind when you find out about your school and dates. It's time for this girl to get saving and looking forward to a trip of a life time. Speaking of, how are prices over there? Are you getting "bang" for your "buck"?! You and the motorbike story is no surprise to me. You're always soo funny...I can literally see you telling the woman blah blah blah I have this and then telling her later on that she might want to check the brakes. Too funny! Just be careful...I want to see you in one piece. :) I hope you continue the blog too; it's great...so informative and the pictures are awesome! As for me things are crazy as always. Had a blast at opening day out here in Milwaukee. Didn't get it too much trouble. Just got a job at Red Rock downtown on water as a bartender, shot girl, and beer tub girl. Orientation is coming up and I'm excited and nervous. Still looking for my day job though. The weather has been on and off...mostly mucky. Hmmm...what else to say. I think that's about it my dear. Oh wait and I'm doing a free yoga class this Saturday...I'll let you know how it goes. But anyways take care and I can't wait to hear from you again! xoxoxoxox All my love, Ash
