New and Improved Wai Kru

Last year on Wai Kru Day(Teacher Respect Day) all the teachers had to sit through a long ceremony and assembly thing outside under the pavilion thing. THIS year, however, they decided that wasn't necessary, so each teacher was showered with flowers and thank yous and dances from our OWN students in our own classes during 3rd period. I liked it much better because at least this time around it wasn't some random child bowing at my feet, it was actually one of my P5 students. It also felt more personal, which made it sweeter, too.
