So...
My Chinese skills are apparently better than I thought, although I think I still might have managed to get myself into a very awkward situation…
…and I might be on a Taiwanese TV show at some point in the near future…here’s what happened:
I was working on a project after my Chinese class at NTNU when two girls walked up and asked me and my classmate if we spoke Chinese,...

Just got back from Harry Potter.
My childhood is officially over. I cried the entire second half of the movie, and I seriously feel as if a huge part of me died.
…..what the hell do I do now?

Sometimes certain things piss me off.
Miniature rant:
I’ve lived in Taiwan for a year (exactly, on this coming Friday - wow). I’ve gotten quite used to being stared at by the locals because I’m, well, different looking. Most of the time I shrug off the staring because, like I said, I’m very used to it by now, and I understand why it happens - Taipei has very few foreigners compared to the larger cities in...

我真不懂...
Day 1 of Mandarin classes at NTNU = success…as long as success means understanding about 1/5 of what my teacher was saying…..
At least the other people in my class didn’t seem to have any idea what was going on, either. Basically we’ll all fail together.
