Bugger, sorry anna, haven't checked this in ages! are you on facebook? theres an intern group on there where there seems to be loads of info being shared! I'm off to london to say goodbye to some mates on monday but back on wed, how would you fancy meeting in maybe the first week of october? Add me on facebook, Leanne Fagan, but i'll check this more often too! 

I booked my flight with emirates from manchester.  i'm flying on the 20th arriving 21st just coz it was cheaper.  Dont think they actually do anything with us till the morning of the 24th though.  If you go early let me know! there are a few of us planning on hanging out in bangkok for a couple of days before orientation!  You booked your flight yet?> Hows that tefl going? 

Sorry for crap response again!!!! xxx

Hi Anna, fancy a pint in liverpool at some point?

I'm back at home from now till we go so let me know!

Leanne

Hi Anna, sorry for the delay. This is going to be my first big adventure in teaching. I've only ever been on family holidays before, and they were to places like America! This is going to be sooo much different (in a good way). I can totally sympathise with you on the "excited and nervous" part. It's scary because I/we still have no idea where the school(s) will be lol! I've started to collect some small things like stationary, stickers, small toys, Scotland memorabilia etc. Have you thought of anything cool to take? How are you getting on with the coursework? Speak soon, Mark xx

Hi jen, at least you have a job! I'm totally broke and cant find any bloody work, just want a month or so to keep me going! very annoying!

Things to take.... hmmm, i need a better think about that!

Have you booked a flight yet? you flying from manchester?

I am seriously struggling to finish the TEFL too! Plus im not finishing work until 5 days before we leave. Im nervous about the whole thing but so so so excited :) When are you planning to fly out? Jen xx

Hey anna, sorry its been so long, havent been on chalkboard for ages, I'm actually living in ormskirk so not too far away!

Yeah I did love thailand! The people are so friendly and I felt really safe over there, even on my own.  I decided to do Tefl because I love travelling but have run out of money and I'm looking for a bit of a lifestyle change!

So what do ya do in liverpool?

Hi Anna, 

I love that this thing gives us all an opportunity to talk before we leave. This is my first big trip so i'm a little nervous. I can't wait though! I'm working through my coursework right now. How is your stuff coming along? Talk to you soon! 

Angela

Hi anna

How are you doing with your TEFL course i have finished mine but i still need to do the weekend course. So much work lol. I love travelling tho I have worked on projects in India, Uganda, Vietnam, Egypt so have got a bit of experience in schools and things i love it so much. Must be really exiting for you tho if this is your first big trip i can imagine you will be so exited to lol.

Hi Anna,

Yeah I think your right, seems were on thinking the same way, cant be a bad thing! :) Thailand does look fantastic, I'm sure it will be! Total immersion in a completely different culture, a little scary but very exciting! How are you fining the course, got much done? Getting everything organised and doing the course while working full time is a bit if a handful! :) 

Hope to hear from you soon
