busy week
so, i'm still recovering from last weekend. it was totally crazy. here's how it went...
friday evening i went to dinner with a group of friends. it's the end of the school year, so we're probably not going to see each other until the fall. it was nice to have a good dinner with them. shanghaiese food. totally enjoyable. from there... i rushed meet up with this guy. he just moved back to taiwan after spending something like four years in the US. so we had a late drink. then, feeling like relaxing, i decided to go home. the minute i get in the door, i get a call from jamie. "come to funky!" so, i turn around and go right to funky. i get there at like 12.30. i get there, of course, he's not feeling well, so he wants to leave. so i stay and dance with a bunch of 18 year olds. gawd i feel old. so, i stay 'til 3 and leave when the chacha stuff comes on. as much as i like dance remixes with chacha interludes.... no! no, i don't! so, i left.
saturday i got up nice and early. moving day. so i bagged everything that hadn't already been packed. got it all ready to go. then i was ready for lunch. so i went to grab food. on the way back, i ran into the girl who's room i was moving in to. (bad sentence) anyways, she's like, "i'll probably be moved out by 6." so then i spent the next four hours cleaning the bathroom and waiting for her to get everything moved out. so then after i got my stuff pretty much moved, it was almost evening. i had made plans to go out with almost all of my friends. (weekend after school ends, ya know...) so we were supposed to meet at fresh at about 12-ish. i left my place early cuz i didn't really eat dinner, so i wanted to have something in my stomach before partying. so, i stopped at 7-11. that's where the story gets interesting...
i grab my sandwich and coke light, pay, and sit down. so, there was this woman sitting at the same bar. so, she started talking to me. this woman had some kind of facial lotion smeared all over her face....dried bits of it under her eyes. she started saying something to me in english... i didn't really understand what she said. so i just started talking in chinese. she asked random questions...in odd ways. for example... "what are you doing in taipei? are you a spy?" i just smiled. she continued, "you know the CIA, they have people in Taipei, and they pretend they are students, or business people. Then they spend lots of time spying on our government. Are you in the CIA?" i smiled again. she went on, "you couldn't be in the CIA, you don't look like you could tell a lie or keep a secret. i know the CIA has people in Taipei. I met this guy who was in the CIA. You know how I know he was in the CIA? He told me secrets." I cracked a really big smile. it was totally a laughable moment. then some white guy walked into the store and bought something. she looked at me, and said, "hey, that's one of my good friends." then she started yelling at him in english. he just ignored her, and gave some really weird looks. then when he walked out of the store, she said, "that's one of my good friends. did you see the way he looked at us? he's one of my good friends." just then i got an sms from jamie, asking me where i was. so i got my ass out of there fast. woman was drugged up on something. such amusement.
so then i got to fresh. drank. danced. had fun. went home. had fun.
sunday. i got myself to the gym for almost two hours. then from there i came home. gossiped with jamie about random things. then i rushed out to tutor. after tutoring, i went to meet up with a guy from yilan. he brought along a bunch of friends. whatever. it was a good chance to meet some more people. then right to bed.
amazingly enough. the entire week went similarly to that. yesterday i finally had time to clean up my room. so, now my room looks clean. next week i'm gonna have to go buy some new stuff to put in my room. decorating. if i feel inspired to do so, i'll update about what happened during the week.
