I just got a letter from "O" Supakit to let me know about This web site. I was happy and excited to see many old friends from Suansri 2517. I was 1/9 and 2/9. Then, I left Suansri for good.
I have lived in New York for more than 2 decades. Sorry, for typing in English. I do not have a Thai keyboard. I can be reached at Vanchartpra@hotmail.com.
Many thanks!!!! to "O" for being our "Center". Keep in touch!

Very nice to meet you as well. Thanks so much for your suggestion about Thai stickers and so on. It would take me quite sometime to type in Thai language. I would try it anyway.
Thanks to your son for helping with many options. I hope he feels better.
Thanks to "O", Superkid for trying to get a few friends in BKK together. I hope to see you and other friends in late November. I would not be able to join the party in October this year. Everyone looked happy in the photoes posted. Good job "O". Thanks again.
How was your trip to Thailand? Are you getting over from the jet lag yet? For me, I would need about 2 weeks to recover! Thank you for the websites to the hotels in BKK. I really look forward to this trip. But it''s a pity that you are not going to be with us at the reunion! Maybe someday when I go to visit the "Big Apple", we'll be able to meet each other then. Anyway...I hope you'll have another great trip in November. I'm so envious^_^....
My trip was too short, only one week in Bangkok. I was not feeling well with nausea and vomitting for 4-5 days. I , most of the time, stayed at home, cooking, doing a few errands, and giving tributes at a temple twice,--that's it. I'm still struggling with jet lag, waking up 2-3 am and looking for a snack.
I would miss you guys in October, may be next year. I hope all of you have good time for the reunion. Don't get overboard with excitment and screaming! We are 51 not 15 ha-ha-ha.
Come on down to a Big Apple during Christmas. It would be beautiful and coldddddd.
Thank you for your kindness, regards, advise, and blessing to all of us, Suansri 2517. I already feel happy to hear from you. I saw your photo with some other friends in this block. I always remember you as a smaller boy from Pak Nam, who was studious and had a very neat hand writing. We were in 1/9. Our teacher was Khun Kru Sukont Thanachareon. Then, the year after, in 2/9., we were with Archan Yupadee Arsa. Then, I left Suansri for good.
I never forgot those days when we were young kids, playing around during break times. I liked to look out to see the swamp with clusters of water plants, behind the building where we were. When those plants gettting dry, it gave me the feeling of my future and final exam coming soon. This is a part of my memories of being with friends at Suansri.
I rarely saw friends since then. I saw Kuk, kitti Banasopit once when he was in Santirajbumrung school in Bangkok. I spend years of my life in New York after graduating from Michigan. There are a few Thai temples in New York area. I go to the temple occasionally. If I have a chance to go to Langsuan, I would go to visit you at the Wat Sawangmanas.
How long have you been in the monastery? I am so happy to hear from you. Yes, for 35 years, We have not seen each others. I am glad and thankful that supakit opened this block for our communication.
I am paying respect to the Lord Buddha and his holiness to keep you and all of suansri 2517 in good health and in peace.
Namasakan,
Vanchart,
