Loy Krathong

We had Loy Krathong Assembly today. It was ok. Pretty much the same every year.. 2 Yr8 MCs, Thai Music, Procession, Video about Loy Krathong, Thai Dance and then extended break (that is the best bit because we get to miss a few minutes of class =D).

There as something a little different though. Mr. Julian, the secondary principal, talked about the princes (Galyani) who is being cremated today and also about Day of Remembrance of WW1 veterans and people who died for peace. It's kind of cool to know the exact time this was started: November 11, at 11:11 so its pretty much 11/11 11:11. Lots of 1s!

Perhaps its because peace is supposed to be our number 1 priority.. or it could just be that its pretty cool to have lots of 1s. Just realized my blog name and locker number has lots of 1s too. =D
