I just got back from Koh Samed for the second time. It was a blast!(again) We got there Friday night around 11 and the logical thing to do would have been go to bed, so we did the exact opposite -we stayed up until 6am ;). I spent the weekend getting to know more teachers from campus 1 and 2, going for a lovely morning run, and just relaxing on the beach. During the past 8 weeks I have been to Samed twice, and it has been wonderful both times.
Ko Samed is an island about 3 hours away from Bangkok. One of my friends from U of Brandon pretty much planned the whole weekend for us, it was wonderful! If you get to Samed during the day you can take the ferry there, but since we always arrive at night we always have to take a special speed boat. The 10 pm speedboat ride is always a good time. I shared a room with a wonderful girl that I did not know before the weekend, and I think we made pretty good roomies.
Saturday morning I got up around 9 and did a run, it was much better than my run last time, being left alone by all the dogs :) I think the trick was to run in the heat. The dogs were not even interested in me.
I had a great weekend with friends, late night dance parties and just relaxing. When I go back to Winnipeg I will look back fondly at Koh Samed, especially on those -40 days!

And yes that is a badass shark tattoo on my quad, just henna because I am so hard core, but it does look damn good!
