A Typical Tuesday?

I showed up for work just like every day so far. Showered in the morning, picked up fruit and a juice from a local street vendor on my 4 block commute to work from the apartment. Started Thai worship at 7:30am sharp and started work at 8:00am after that. To my surprise however, we were picking up another missionary from Germany today, Sandrina.
Pastor Doug, Goi, Andrew and me all rode the skytrain to the airport, picked up Sandrina and took her for a "Welcome to Bangkok" tour of the city. We even got to go to the top of the tallest building in Thailand with a revolving observation deck to get a better view of the city.
After we finished some Mango smoothies at the restaurant in the skyscraper Doug had to go to a meeting at the SDA Hospital and we took Sandrina to the church plant in Tomburi, Bangkok where she would be staying. It was more of the historical section of the city, had some beautiful Wats and architecture. The Tomburi church plant was where the old Hope for Bangkok headquarters used to be (the mission office that I'm working at now) some of the past missionaries designed a beautiful mural for the wall of their vegetarian restaurant. We are a good hour plus from there now so Sandrina will have a commute to see other missionaries :/ she'll have to jump in quick!
After leaving her there we got back at four (an hour late) and went back to work. The Burmese Pastor had finally arrived with his family to help set up and answer questions about the upcoming Evangelistic Series. So Andrew and Goi set up the stage and video equipment while I asked questions about what posters they liked and if my burmese was correct. After a powerpoint nightmare and some progress on the staging we finally left work at around 7:30pm. LATE.
**BONUS! Today was nature week: I saw a snail with a shell the size of my fist AND my first cocroach crawled across my pillow tonight. O.M.G. I can't say I hate them because in Thai Goi says that whatever you hate will "come to you". Probably wise advice..**
On a positive side I ran into two more student missionaries tonight from Walla Walla, another Andrew and...I want to say Julia? Ops, I forgot. We all had dinner at the Greenhouse today, yummmmm more pad thai!
