i'm a terrible person

long weird night... i got home at 3 am last night, but my okasan actually was up waiting for... i felt terrible

that night... we had a "meeting..." and kind of rewrote out "constitution"
so, now... the new thing is:
-I have to be home by midnite no matter what
-i must be back for dinner on mondays and thursdays
-should have "communication" with her afterwards
-etc...

hmm,
although there was a reason behind all this...
i went to with some friends to look for this "concert" near a 7-11 at 9pm
clearly that was BS, and no such concert existed
so we ended up in a random, sketchy bar/cafe around the corner.
we did some stuff, i walked one of my friends who wanted to go back first back around midnite.
met other friends that were coming back from Karaoke walk them back to the dorm and then together sent one of the girls in homestay back by bike

on my way back with the karaoke kids, i met the guys from the club earlier
then i hanged out with them for at bit at the park, and then walked one of the guys back to his place as well

so by the time i finally got home, it was 3 am... hmm... bad planning?

alive again

sorry i didn't have internet for a while
since the last time... i've to Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and been to a week of class
I'll send pictures and details next time ><

review test

i have a review test.... if i fail i will end up in a lower level... which is means i'll have to retake genki 2... that will be going back to 103... hmmm that might be a problem

lately... my conversational and functional japanese went up, but... everything else went though kkkk ><

外國人登錄(Alien Registration) PM 1:48

Currently I am stuck at the 市役所(City Hall)　waiting at the line for the to get my form so I can get the permission to buy a cell phone. The current number is 926, and mine is 931. All foreigners are suppose to register at the local town center within 90 days of arrival, so I am currently working on mine.

After leaving my host family this morning, with the bike they lent me, I went to school and met with the other guys at the CIE (Center for International Educations). We had lunch as usual at the cafeteria and then they went to pick up their phones at the Softbank branch store at the convenient school at school. Nothing special. I went to the parking lot to get to the parking to get here (the city hall) but I realized I couldn’t find the bike… I guess I’ll have to wait for everyone to leave and go back to pick it my bike up later… fun…

Meanwhile, I can only drink my tea and wait…

看照片

昨晚傳了些進電腦。現在看了一下。懐かしい…讓我想起了中國，好懷念喔
時間過的真快...暑假晚了，要開學了
新生訓練今天正式結束。

在寄宿家庭這裡沒有了網路，習慣了每天對著電腦發呆的我就只能看照片和台灣同學燒來的動畫。

看來看去，不知不覺的就開始p了機張。

三個人去等日出的那個清晨... 哈哈 有點像夢境一般

吉兆的海真美、配上鹹鹹海風...蠻舒服的。

好想再像那天一樣20幾人一起去海邊玩。

(9:53am)

夜間大家一起在沙城堡邊放花火也成了永遠的記憶。

好想念中國、好想念廣東、好想念JIA、好想念大家。

Note: this is for the non-Chinese speakers out there. These are pictures from this summer in China. The one on the top was waiting for sunrise at the beach and the bottom was our whole group of volunteers playing with firework the night before.

The room

This will be my room for the next 4 months.

The upper left corner is my closet, where I filled up with jackets and sweaters that I probably will not need and the lower left corner is also filled with all my t-shirts and jeans. I have my laptop with me but no INTERNET here… so, expect updates from the middle of the day when I am at school. I like this nice little cozy space, if only I had internet. But I guess that will make sure I won’t stay home all day (since it is actually only a 5 min walk from school!)

(ps, I will fix the display time to actually match the time I wrote all this, since I have to do all this off-line.)

Today’s potential schedule:

-go to the city office to pick up the form so I can buy a cellphone

-get a global phone at Softbank, hopefully not too expensive

-figure out if I’m suppose to meet my speaking partner or not

-first class of the term: 4:00-5:20pm, Japan-China: Problems in Historical and Cultural Experience

(下午開始就有課... 4:00-5:20pm中國-日本:歷史與文化交流問題)

karaoke

karaoke today

... Tsuba has an awesome voice...

sings a lot of the songs Yoyo (who's a girl, not bad singer) sing pretty darn well

wow kkk...

The place we went wasn't too bad, not many Chinese songs, but it was ok

it had Karaoke, ping pong, manga, ps2, massage chair, pool, etc

so...中文? English? 日本語？¿Español?

有人抗議...說看不懂中文
but there are also complaints about ppl not understanding English...

there is no way i would write in both languages.... じゃ、どうする

ppl i've met so far

other than my roommates, i've been hagging out with mostly asians lately

Taiwan, HK, China.. although they all have quite complicated history
meaning... lived in Canada, US, etc
good English, better Japanese, and I get to learn some Canton. Sweet deal if you ask me

So from top to down, left to right..

they are Sure, Suika, Martin, Tsubasa,

host family

i got my host family assignment today
I just have a Otosan and Okasa
there are a few pros and cons... i feel...

pro:
-live 3-4 min from school, walking! that's closer than even the dorms
-have a relatively big house, 6 rooms
-don't speak English, I can get lots of practice

cons:
-no children... i kind of wanted a younger brother or sister... maybe a good thing too though
-retired... so don't know what they will be doing all day.. don't know what to do with them
-hobbies... are gardening and "making vegitable"...

can be fun

airport diary

again I am here at the Tauyuan international airport here at Taiwan (formerly know as Taipei international)
I've actually writen this type of aiport note right before departing quite a few time... but I didn't have a blog before, so here I am posting

btw, the last blog... I pretty much closed it because I never got comments... thus I stoped updating, and the vicious cycle went on... so, hopefully you guys can comment a lot... anything. just lets me know there is someone reading... bc i wouldn't have a blog if I can write my own diary

funny but dumb thing... my travel agent here in taiwan kind of... well... isn't the best. i got charged and extra $200+ for an extra suitcase i was not suppose to bring... damn i didn't know... damn he didn't tell me... my fault as well? hmmm.... my credit card wants to cry kkkk... I should arrive at Osaka (KIX) this afternoon... and another exciting semester is about to start

something i disagree with avery... (sorry?) you know what is cooler than taking pictures? filiming videos with a HD camcorder hehe
