Welcome everyone to my travels in Southeast Asia!

A rant

I must have bad karma or something because within the last two days, less than 48 hours, i have had (to me) three semi-upsetting things happen. First, i managed to rease all of my photos from my trip to Vietnam (as you know), this ironically happening just a few short hours afte rhte buddhist monks cam to bless not only me (by participating) but the entire school witha protection sutra. The maladies continued as i went to futbol practice yesterday afternoon to find out hat i had been essentially kicked off teh B team. I know i am not the greatest when it comes to soccer, and i may have language barrier with half of the team, but i have been showing up to practice, improving, making an effort to know the names ofa ll of my fellow players, and yet, the day after Bom (the team A captaina nd organizer of hte entire tournament) definitively said i would have a spot, and after the jerseys came in, they tell my friend emily and i that we've been replaced (maybe it's a gender thing). THey even had our jerseys made out, but no, they are sending them back to take the names off and adhere new ones. Are you ready for the cherry? It being St. Patrick's day i decided to pick myself up by my 3/8th Irish boot straps and go out for the evening, celebrate St. Patty's day with a Guinness and some Celtic music. Turns out ont he way to the pub i stub my toe on a raised lump of concrete (the streets here aren't in the best of shape, uneven, but i hadn't had a problem with them before...and my accident occurred before i had a sip of anything, i don't know if htat helps my case or not) meanwhile skinning my big left toe producing a pool of blood around it and into my shoe. (Guess what mom, my other toe nail finally fell off, i was on my way to normal feet again) I guess the luck o' de Irish wasn't with me this week.
