New Job at CWITEI haven't updated this space for awhile. Today I have some time for myself after came back from work.
It is getting cooler here in Thailand. The temperature is quite comfortable around 20-28 C. I tried to swim in the pool at my brother's condo the other day and the water was sooo cold.
Now I am staying during the weekday with my brother and going home to my parents during the weekend. It is not so nice to travel around in Bangkok. I HATE traffic!! Luckily when I stay at my brother's condo I don't have to take a car, only very very risky on the motercycle taxi. They often drive too scary and fast in between cars/bus/or whatever narrow path that they can find. They try to go as fast as possible. (Even though not too much safer, I prefer Tuk-tuk but they are more expensive and not always available.) Then I take a boat to cross Chao Praya River and go to take BTS skytrain and finally walk about 8 minutes to the office.
It is about a month now that I started a new job at CWITE (The Center for World Information Technology Education). I mainly learn a lot about law and am trying to figure out what is the best way to operate the center here in Thailand. It is something new for me...and give me quite good inside into how to operate an NGO. I learn a lof but I would probably prefer the more active/challenging and more international work than this one. It is just ok for now... I work with another lady and we are now like sisters.
On Wednesday I come along with my co-worker to a Christian group that want to practice English. It is good to get to know some new people and use my time to benefit to other/help them learn what they are interested in.
There are only 4 girls in the office and there we also have 4 foreigners (2 Americans, a Swedish, and an Indian).
Now I am also learning Spanish and I LOVE it. The course will be over somewhere in Dec. I want to continue another course but it is really too expensive...
