(no subject)
Since I promised Lisa I'd post about it...
Today we went to the Chinese Handicraft Mart to look for gifts (two of my nephews, my niece, my brother, and both my sisters have birthdays around this time), and on the way back I was walking along, minding my business, when I saw a guy on the side of the street. I glanced at him, and, um, noticed he had himself all exposed. Pants were open, parts were hanging out in the air. I kinda just glanced away and kept walking. REALLY ODD. I would expect this of New York City, or Boston, but NOT of Taipei, and distinctly not of that area (around Taida).
Also we were in carrefour today to get pictures taken for our visas (mine came out pretty well, I totally posed), and we saw a dog poop on the floor. Luckily the owner cleaned it up. But I doubt I'll ever get used to the random dogs in food stores here.
I think I'm sick. I hope it's not the flu. All I need is to get H1N1 (though at least my school absences wouldn't be counted. Have I mentioned that Taiwan is freaking obsessed with preventing H1N1?) I've had the flu maybe 4 times in my life. It would just figure if I got it now.
I got a free cell phone charm today. Which brings my total up to five. I obviously have an addiction.
Awesome quote from us I wrote down, but then never posted...
"The only people who know me better than me are God and Rasputin"
ETA: Random Chinese! 我叫美俐. 我是生物學家. 我去台灣學中文. 這是一點兒功課.
