2 is DEFINITELY better than 1!!!!!

This is gonna be a short post--I just HAD to tell about the great day I had!!!

woke up around 8:15 (which is laaattee for Cambodia!)
ate some breakfast with Ta
chatted with Val about her day yesterday and bought fruit at market
then planned our lessons for school went to a delicious Thai lunch together that cost 1.50 and had awesome conversation =)
we also found a new, shorter way to get to CLFCA!
gave our first quiz at CLFCA that was about body parts--everyone did exceptionally well!
played a new game we call Word Grow that they all seemed to like, too
(((example of Word Grow: cowindaughtereadyeshore--can ya figure it out??)))
biked to KHK, tought two classes there (my usual music class and another one) until about 6:30...

...and THEN:

the sky had been pretty dark all day, so we were expecting rain at some point---and it definitely arrived at about 6. it freakin poured while we were teaching!! it was so loud that we had to pause class cause wecouldn't hear over the noise on the tin roof! but as val and I got our bicycles to go, it seemed to let up! so we're thinking "hey! we lucked out!"
We biked to a "Fast Khmer Food" place on the way home to get some groceries and whatever, and while we're in there we hear just like GOOOOOSH!! RAIN!! feeling rebelious (lol), we decided to go for it--so we both ordered smoothes (that have ICE in them!! haha so we'll see how that goes! val didn't get sick last time she had one! haha we're dangerous like that) and headed out into literally rain so hard you couldn't see in front of you! She was in her thin raincoat and I, of course, had thought "oh, it won't rain today!" so I had nothing!!

We rode on our bicycles 2km home--me and val, the only two western women living in siem reap, completely drenched, slushies in hand, baskets full of groceries, screaming and laughing and yelling "SUO SUDEI!!" to everyone we saw!!!-----It was really just great, great, great fun!!

Haven't had fun like that in about a month and a half~!

So, we got home looking as if we'd gone swimming in our clothes (i wish i had thought to take a picture!), made our way upstairs, and took hot showers. Val's getting a massage tonight, think i'll do the same tomorrow---rephrase, I'm doing the same tomorrow.

Time for some Shark Week! dinner of a scrambled egg, bananas, apples, some random bread, and my last orange.

Basically, today rocked. =)
