Typhoon Holiday

It has come to my attention that some people have been clamoring for a new post or two, so here goes:

Anyway, I am now in Zhong He City, Taipei, Taiwan. The weather is generally very hot & humid: when I got here it was about 33 degrees. Everyone showers every night, some people twice each day. It is a very large, very crowded city, but the public transit is good. Lots of people ride scooters (they call them motorbikes but really they're not. Here's my bedroom:

It's a mattress. A very hard mattress.

Today is a holiday from work and school because there is a strong typhoon passing over Taipei. Otherwise, my host sisters would be in school from 7AM-5PM and 7AM-10PM, and my host father would be working from 7 to 7. People seem a little more hardcore here... then they come home and still have time to watch some baseball.

Anyway, I am going to eat breakfast now.

I like how you pretty much said NOTHING about what sort of time you've been having. Interesting? Boring? Frustrating beyond imagination? Sheesh! But I'm liking the matress...

Ahhh! Cool! Lovely Hello Kitty blanket...Mine is red and pink. lol. How's the food? Different much? That sucks about the weather, rain and wind is not so much fun. School sounds incredibly hardcore. Here, school is relatively relaxed. I have about 20 hours of school a week, and I wish you luck in school.

hey kevin,
what's up? What language are you speaking there? I was pretty sure you said Mandarin Chinese but a bunch of ppl I know are like "no, no they speak Taiwanese". :S Well maybe you'll come back all hardcore and call us all slackers when you get back. Asian ppl are hardcore here at the universities too, so you competition wherever you go. Try to skool them all in taiwan gr. 12. that'd be awesome. seen any olympics??? well I gtg.
sincerely,
Brad
