Dinner with the director


This happened on the evening after going to the English camp at the Primary School. We went to the main office to use the Internet and started to talk to P-Pui. Everything was going fine as the three of us were going to go out for dinner and such but then the Director came out. As soon as he saw us he started to talk to us and then he forced us to go to dinner with him. As we were to girls though, P-Pui had to come along as well. We all got into his car and went to a restaurant where the visitors were. The only problem was that the Director drove the wrong way so P-Pui had to subtly direct him the right way as she couldn't tell him that he had gone the wrong way. It was weird as we weren't allowed to talk in the car unless the Director spoke to you first so Clem was the only one speaking along with him as she was in the front whilst P-Pui and myself exchanged notes which was our conversation.
When we arrived, we thought that we would be able to sit at one end of the table to we could just be present and chat together. Unfortunately, we had to sit right next to the Director. This meant that we weren't allowed to talk that much again which was actually quite hard. The food was good though so on the upside, we had a good free meal. On the downside, we had to serve the Director food. There was this dish where you would have a leaf and you would then put different foods into it. We had to create them for the Director, and because I was sitting right next to him, I had to put some food on his plate from time to time. It was quite funny as I would have the food ready and would have to wait for P-Pui to tell me when the best time to give it to him was. I ended up sitting there for a couple of minutes with this food waiting for the right moment to give it to him.
On the way back I had to sit in the front which was all-right as he wasn't as talkative, but when he did talk, he started to quiz me on the Thai language which was really not the best thing in the world to do as being under pressure made me fell like I was going to forget things. When we got back we went back to our house with P-Pui and started to sort out a Christmas Party we wanted to have so it felt more Christmassy. This concludes the blog. Stay tuned for the next one.
