A Bone from a Dry Sea

by Peter Dickinson

In the first chapter, it's about the past. The main character of the past is doing a shark watch, which she use a hood to indicate that the shark came. I actually do a shark watch once in Australia and what I found was actually a whale shark which is pretty impressive. Anyway, back to story, so there was a very strong waves that push the shark until it got trapped inside the waterhole on the shore. And people started to kill it, which they did it in the end.

Personal Flood stuff :P

Well, I the flood didn't reach me during this "break" it's mostly because I live in the highest part of Bangkok, the Praditmanutum road. But the soccer field and the road in from of my village does flood, however... And even worse, there are 3 crocodiles swimming in front of the road in front of my village, but good thing that the soldiers already got them all back to they came from. I shield my house with some modeling clay, sand bags, thick plastic and some rag tape.

I actually first  moved to Pattaya since we thought it was going to flood, but that never happen. After about 2 weeks or so, we found out that loads of people from Bangkok are moving to Pattaya since most of them have condo there, but that meant that it'll be overcrowded soon (also meant that we'll run out of supplies there), so we move back to Bangkok for 2 or 3 days. Then exactly after that, we moved to Nakorn Najok, which is a pretty nice place since it's rather more quiet and also not overcrowded nor shortage of supplies. I also learn many things there, which are shooting guns, canoeing, driving a car, playing guitar and using chopsticks (pretty funny that I don't know how to use them until now, right?).

Flood 2011

I guess that making artificial boats, life jackets are great idea since we don't have to waste our money just for this only flood. Another good thing is that, we can use them again (except the boat :p).
