Kids'll be Kids

I’ve always loved kids, partly because I act like one 104% of the time. One of the things I love about kids, is no matter where you go, kids are still kids. There are so many similarities when it comes to kids, they really make the differences between cultures seem pretty trivial. I really saw this last Thursday. It was Wai Kru Day (more or less teacher appreciation day). I for one felt very appreciated, mostly because I didn’t have to teach that day. J There was this big ceremony that lasted a good few hours. It didn’t really have any clue what was going on the vast majority of the time but it was still pretty cool. All of the students bowed to the teachers and gave flowers to the principal, and then one of the teachers talked, and talked, and talked. Of course all of the kids were extremely attentive, for the first about 15 minutes. Haha I was just really happy because I got to sit right in front of the kindergartners. They definitely helped keep me entertained because let’s face it, my attention span’s probably shorter than theirs. Here are some of the best kindergartner moments I caught on camera.

I whip my hair back and forth! I whip my hair back and forth!

This little guy was so cute! He spent the whole ceremony smiling and waving at me.

well, whenever he wasn't busy giving the boy next to him Indian burns haha

The always timeless and also international hair pulling

Secrets!

He was definitely flossing with grass. Potentially the next MacGyver?

Nap time!
