So I’ve been in taiwan now for about two weeks, dropped off the face of the internet lol. While I do sign on sometimes, its probably when you guys SHOULD be sleeping. As most of you guys know, I came back this summer to intern and take chinese classes. Basically, I’m not exactly very fond of my intern place. I mean, I don’t hate it-its not like the people there aren’t nice to me…it’s the fact that I have to get up at 6:30am. To catch the mrt. To get to 南港. Its just like I realize that I really can’t get up that early lolol. I totally don’t hear my alarms and my dad has to wake me up ._. I mean my dad was all like “what happens if you have class at 8am! You still have to get up at 6:30 to get ready and go to school!” and I was kinda like…dad. I’m not going to take an 8am class. I know I’m weird, but I’m not suicidal. Plus, i guess it would be worth it if I actually did something..but all they make me do is type. And you guys know how I can’t exactly read handwritten chinese? Yeahhh. That’s what they give me to type. Like, if that’s what I’m learning at intern..then I can’t really say I learned anything. Lol. Its “practicing typing chinese” and practicing reading chinese I can’t even make out. But I think I’ll stick it out a couple more weeks and see if I do anything productive..if not then I value my sleep and I think I’ll just quit my intern. Cause seriously…typing for 3 hours or staring at a computer screen doing nothing but reading the news is…sorta…yeah. Anyways, all of you guys would get a kick out of my chinese class. I don’t exactly want to make this into a complain rant, but like. Lolol, the words are a little too easy for me. And like. I suck at grammar. “為什麼你說'我吃完飯了’後面要有了?” to hell that I know. Lolol, that’s just the way its said. And like…seriously its just my writing. Lolol sometimes I wonder if I should have just bought a workbook and practiced chinese by myself. I mean seriously…a lot of the class is like speaking/understanding focused and its like…yeahhh. But its not all bad. I really like my classmates. Most people are from the cali area so its pretty cool. And the teacher likes to make fun of all of us lolol. Like I make it sound all bad, but it really isn’t that bad.
on the bright side though, I was really happy that I finally got to meet up with roxy, sean, jayme, veronica, romeo….^^ for some people it’s the first time in 4 years since I got to see him, for others its like we get to see each other once a year. Its been pretty good though-even though primo wasn’t so good the night we went, and luxy was just overcrowded-but it was just nice to go clubbing with good friends.
i'm looking fowrad to this weekend though, luxy tomorrow night, paintballing, ktving..^^

i'm leaving to go to taiwan soon. (:
i guess taiwan will be a good for me...finish up some unfinished business.
get to relax a little bit and hang out with my besties~

i wish everyone a great summer-have fun, but remember to stay safe, try to change your sleeping schedules so that its normal! *ahem, tiff. that means you lol. stop sleeping at 7am* eat normal meals *ahem, thomas. don't starve yourself for like 48 hours. silly anorexic.*....:P ken. D: dont lose anymore weight. D: my mom is going to be super worried if you do. for those of you doing summer school, good luck~don't...pull too many allnighters!

the next time i blog, i'll be in taiwan. :) hopefully intern + classes go allright!

it didn't occur to me how long as the last time i had ever stepped foot into a bookstore and spent some time in it. in fact, one of these days, i'll drive to the library or the bookstore and just live there for a day. believe it or not, i enjoy reading books-a lot. it's been a while since i've had the time to actually sit my butt down and enjoy a book without distractions or worrying about the tiny details that might show up on a test. it's been a while since i sat down, picked a book that looked interesting to me and thrown myself into the world. i should so find me a book, drive to sd, just to sit on the cliffs and enjoy my book while watching the clouds float away, the wind brush against my face, and hear the ocean roar. it's been a while.

but whatever. that can't be helped. i can still do it when i get back from taiwan.
i'm actually rather disappointed that i didn't get the chance to go to the cliffs before i left sd. and if it weren't for the fact that my parents would kill me if i make another trip down to san diego, i probably would go down sometime next week. i guess it can't be helped-i can always go when i come back from taiwan~

8 more days till taiwan! :)
i'm so excited!
