Tennessee Williams

Tennessee Williams was a born Thomas Lainer Williams on March 26th 1911 in Mississippi. His first degree at the University of Missouri was broken off, because his father wanted him to work in the international shoe business. But later on graduated from the University of Iowa. He then changed his name to Tennessee (his father's birthplace). He wrote many plays and short plays. Tennessee Williams choked to death on a bottle cap in 1983.

After The Last Dive

(Yi Peng) Lantern Festival

The Lantern Festival in Northern Thailand is called Yi Peng Festival.  It is a unique traditional practice and the northern version of Loy Kratong. This is an unusual ritual of launching a Lanna- Style hot air "lantern balloons". The belief has it that when these huge hot air balloons are set to drift and float away and take the troubles of the launcher with it. 

Yantra Tattoo

A Yantra tattoo is a form of magical tattoo. It was once widely practiced throughout Asia- most commonly in Cambodia where the tattoo's purpose is primarily for self-protection. Many Cambodians believe that yantras have magical powers to ward off evil spirits. It is believed to be one of the most powerful ways to ensure good fortune with these sacred tattoos. With the ever increasing modernization this practice is becoming less common. Despite Cambodia's modernity, it's culture is still pervaded by superstition and it's religious traditions are quite tolerant of these older beliefs. 

Diving Trip

Ahh.. as for the october break 15th - 21st a group of 13 of us went on a dive trip to Ao Nang, Krabi.

5 of us were certified, but the rest of us never dived before. The classroom sessions were quite boring, but as soon as we got into the ocean it was fun..! At the end we had 2 new specialty divers and 7 new certified divers. One person, due to sinus problems couldn't dive along. As soon as I get the dive Video I will out it on my site. 

Our dive instructors were really cool, nice and funny. The already certified divers went to different locations for their dives. But the new learners had 4 dives all around Phi Phi island.
