After an exhausting first term of graduate school, I decided I needed a vacation and impulsively booked the cheapest flight I could find to Bangkok. I left early in the morning on June 12th, two days after my Biostatistics final exam, and didn't return until late on the 29th. It was a wonderful trip; not only for the friends I got to see, but for the joy, encouragement, peace, and refreshing rejuvenation that only Thailand can provide me. God blessed me on this holiday in so many ways, from the lovely friends who hosted me, to the many milestones of others I was able to be a part of, to the few new faces that simply blessed me with their company. Thanks to all of you <3
