Thai Students
At last, the Thai group of students have finally left! I feel like a brief, but instense, storm has passed and now my life could return to normal. A co-worker who felt similarly, also said, “Thank God!” This month of April has been rather crazy, but fortunately it has also gone by very fast. Also, it was nice to meet Thai people even if it happened here in the US! Ha-Ha!
I'm really afraid of next week since I will have to work by myself, alone, without help from my co-worker, and it’s already making me feel stressed out. They should pay me twice the salary, including that of Jane, if they expect me to do twice the work in her absence. Anyway, I received some parting gifts from the lovely Thai girls—pants, but Thai-styled—and they excitedly told me, “Many foreigners like these pants!”
Given the fact that I am at least ten years older than all of them, I still felt that I was able to have good rapport and communication with all the Thai students even though the time we spent together, a month, was really not that long. So, today, with all that did happen, and in thinking about all that will happen, I felt a lot of conflicting emotions: sad, annoyed, satisfied, mad, etc.
Hi Janice. Good job! Whatever changes that I made were merely done to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears, to complete your thoughts, and to allow them to read both more smoothly and cohesively. I hope that this helps you. J.
