Know what that means? Only one month left here in Taiwan! I can’t believe how quickly the time has gone, and hopefully I can cram all the stuff I still want to do in the next few weeks. I still need to get gifts for friends and family (I am admittedly terrible at gift-giving, sorry in advance), and want to visit a few more sights in Taipei. My camera charger is broken, so I won’t be able to put up many pictures, but I’ll post about anything cool I do!
Jenga (or rather, the Taiwanese off-brand version) fever hits 4 Mei.

Love,
Your Son

A gift from the man himself, Marvin. Safe to say this is the first time I’ve been given an airplane bottle of whiskey.
My students wrote journals about this topic: if you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Here are some of my favorite responses.
I don’t want to live anywhere. I only want to live in Taipei. Taipei in the Taiwan. My home in the Taipei. So, you should know I only want to live in my home.
I want to live in Taiwan because I can drive Bentley and Hummer on the road, and I can buy a big house.
I would live in France, because France is a beautiful country. I want to live in Paris. And I can listen to French horn.
I would live in an uninhabited island. I would be a farmer. I would be the king in that island. I would be free!
If I could live anywhere in the world, I will live in Japan. Because have many Hello Kitty. I am so love Hello Kitty.
