UTTSA - University of Toronto Thai Student Association Thai Student Association, U of T

 
U of T Thai Students!

 
Some of you go home in winter, some don’t.

 
Here’s a quest to get our social lives back after this herendous semester, bad economy, and worst evil of all: University of Toronto. We have to get away from our school life, and rejoice our Thai lifestyle! What kind of lifestyle you ask? Party for all other lifestyles we’ve lost during our schoolyear!

 
Recommend a restaurant. We’ll destroy that restaurant, then we’ll aim for a bar. We have a bar in mind: the bar’s near Bloor & Bathurst (near honest ed’s - so don’t worry about the subway access). So I’d like it if the restaurant is near the bar, but no matter what we’ll find a way there no matter how full we are after we’re done with our dinner. There are no obstacles for us Thai ppl to party anyway.

 
please be advised that we’ll be charging an extra $2 from you guys. this extra $2 will be fully donated with UTTSA money for our children within our community! (don’t expect pregnancy… what i meant was for the new guys that we haven’t seen yet - this is for UTTSA future!)

สวัสดี แฟนเพลงที่เคารพรักทุกท่าน

 
ถึงเวลาอันดีแล้ว ที่เราชาวไทยทั้งผองจะมารวมตัวกัน สามัคคีชุมนุม

 
จบแล้ว หรือยังไม่จบ

 
แต่ หมดเวลาศึก เราต้องฉลอง! ทุกท่านกรุณาทุบหม้อข้าวเตรียมพร้อมให้ดี เราจะไปถล่มร้านอาหารกัน (และบาร์… เพื่อดื่มฉลองความรัก การงาน และทุกๆอย่าง ที่เราสูญเสียไป ให้กับสิ่งที่เราเรียกว่า การเรียน…)

 
บาร์ จะอยู่แถวๆ bloor & christie (ใกล้ honest ed’s) ไปสบาย แต่ถ้าอยากสบายกว่านั้น ช่วยแนะนำร้านอาหารแถวๆนั้นเพื่อการถล่มอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ และประสิทธิผล (มันแปลว่าอะไร?) เพราะฉะนั้น อย่าลืมนะทุกท่าน

 
อ้อ และอย่าลืมเอาเงินมาเพิ่มด้วยนะ งานนี้ uttsa ต้องการเงินเข้าด้วย กรุณาเอาเงินมาเพิ่ม คนละ สองเหรียญ งานนี้ เราจะทำให้ uttsa ร่ำรวย มั่งคั่ง กว่าเดิม ไม่มากกว่าน้อย เพื่อลูกหลานศิษย์ใหม่ที่ยังไม่ได้เข้ามา ในอนาคต

 
ความสนุกสนาน เฮฮา และ ปาร์ตี้ จงสถิตย์กับทุกท่าน นิรันดร์กาล เทอญ

 
สาธุ
