This morning I was with four of my Muslim friends went to Thai-Pakistan mosque to pray Eid al-Adha. We went there at 07.30 am because the prayer will start at 08.00 am.  As the name of the mosque is the Thai-Pakistan mosque then the majority of jama'ah who attend this mosque are thai-pakistan people who live there. This is my first experience to pray Eid al-adha in abroad.  Thai-Pakistan Mosque After the prayer we shake hands with other jama'ah (Muslimah). In addition, we met a family. Mr.Rodi's family.

Farewell Dinner :( Today's' morning activity is cleaning and tidying up the room. In the afternoon I and Rinan went to Amporn. We bought some food and some stuffs we needed. Furthermore, we went to Woro market. The Woro market is located not far from Wat Khian school. After finishing shopping. We decided to return to the dorm.  We found it difficult to return to the dorm because the tuk-tuk driver did not know the area we were referring to. We told every tuk-tuk driver who passed by our dorm address with  "U-Thong" but the driver who heard it was amazed by the address we meant. As it turns out, we said "U-Thong" with an imprecise pronunciation. Therefore, we understood when we said a wrong to the rhythm of the word then it will mean another word.  We finally found a tuk-tuk who understood our address. When we get to the dorm we immediately get ready to go to "farewell dinner" with our coordinators at ARU. We had dinner in Shabuya

See You Again Wat Khian School ! In the morning I went to school at 7:30 am. I went there by myself by tuk-tuk. This morning I also met a tuk-tuk driver who is a Muslim. When I was about to pay the tuk-tuk fee he did not want to accept it he just said "Assalamu'alaikum" and left. Alhamdulillah I can meet a good Muslim like him this morning.  I arrived at school at 08.05 am. I arrived rather late because it was jammed in the street near the school. I did not find the teachers in the office. The only teacher I met is Ms. Faa. Ms. Faa told me that all Buddhist teachers and students were going to the temple to worship. As for the Muslim students, Christians and Hindus gathered in the office while waiting for the others to finish worshiping.
