好久不見

           Long time no see....


I am truly sad that I didn't get to stay more on top of my "doings" in Taiwan as I did in Italy, but YO i have a job here so it is a bit more packed and hard for me to get a hold of all this blogging and remembering what happened during the day.
      There are A LOT of new things here, obviously, since I am in another place, another country. But, however foreign it is, it feels like home and thus blogging feels weird because who blogs about their everyday life at home. No, it is nothing like a normal day at home though, but there sure is a routine for half a day and it makes me feel like I am at school or something.


But to catch you up with my life I will list the only things i remembered happened between my last post and this one now...which is probably a 3 week gap:

1. Made friends with Taiwanese Interns at YANGMINGSHAN
2. Rode and ride their motorbike to work and back sometimes :)
3. HIKED the tallest mountain in YANGMINGSHAN, as well as many others here
4. YE SHI ...yummy food
5. movie!!
6. visited NIE MA AND NAI NAI!!! realize how much i love them
7. using MRT and bus ....ALL THE TIME
8. Travel with sister and her german boyfriend and feeling awkward... but more happy that i get to hang out with her
9. finding out more about national parks...uh especially the one in Taipei...one called...YANGMINGSHAN
10. Got called out by too many bus men to remember, and finally got yelled out while walking the wrong direction from one goodhearted bus man's instruction, "OTHER WAY" he shouted out through his STREET LOUD speakers from the bus...I ran the other direction in shame that i couldn't even test with my "Shame experiment"
11. Dan sui with ANDY!
12. what i just did: FU LONG...bien dans, strangers--> friends, lost phone, bored to beer-ed, to helping guys pick up girls by just standing there...concert...squid...surprisinglygood time...
13. oh did i forget to say typhoon? ...well then...TYPHOON
14. 7/11 little prince stickers ...damn it. still need 1 more!!

See there are a list of things here and my head is bursting at the seams (if there are seams on my head) in order to contain all the things i could say about each numbered activity. Honestly all you have to know that Taiwan is a different place. I strive to make it my second home, as it should be...not only for convince sake, but for the sake of giving myself some way of not beings so damn lost in this world.

One way is to have faith in the next world or the life you'll have after this one...and one way is to find a place in this world, and the life you have here and now.
"one way...one way to what?!" HAH. well how am I supposed to know, I just typed and that's what came out...and I'm not going to correct it, because it's not like im wrong...one way...of life..one way one direction one something it doesn't even matter, but it is what it is...having a place is a way to something to nothing and to everything...and it sounds like it cant be possible but it makes more sense to me than any other thing I have ever heard myself say to myself before.
