I graduated college in August and decided to move here to teach English. This is my first time living outside of the states. I will try to post here regularly with whats going on in my life. Don’t judge me when 90% of my posts are about me getting drunk off Thai Whiskey and beer.

Post with 1 note

This is not Thailand

I was in my room listening to music and heard two loud bangs outside my window.  They scared the crap out of me because they were so loud.  I didn’t think much of it since the kids down the way light off fireworks on a regular basis.  A few minutes later I heard a woman in hysterics so I went downstairs.  There was a woman laying motionless in the middle of the road, surrounded by a pool of blood.  Her back was facing me but it was obvious she was dead.  A couple of minutes later the police arrived and taped everything off.  I didn’t realize at first but she was also holding a baby.  Luckily the woman managed to save the babies life by (I’m assuming) turning her back towards the gunman.  

After about another 10 minutes some journalists appeared and starting taking pictures of her.  They were allowed to take photos inches away from her dead body.  They will most likely be published in the paper tomorrow. 

The worst part of the entire event was when a friend or family member of this woman showed up and completely lost it. 

Who the hell shoots a woman with a baby in her hands? what a coward
