So the parking decks are super awesome. I think they have them in NY too.... Its like a vending machine, you are assigned a number and that is the ramp that you are supposed to park in. Anyways so there are a total of 9 in one section. 3 at the very bottom 3 level and 3 on top. anyways so we were ready to ride so Joy goes over to the car opens the doors and was ready to pull the car out, when her keys fell down the hole. It was hilarious... Sandy insisted we call the parking dude, but Joy was like "I'll take care of it" ya'll just gotta see the video... I'll post that eventually. Ok... well sleepy time... ok bye.

@ DanShui!
SURPRISE! (I'm super tired again..)
Well today was another wonderful day in Taiwan. I stayed with Sandy at sister Chou's home at Danshui, which is at the north west tip, right beside a river. Anyways, I was able to go to the SAD for the hsinchu congregation, and sorrounding area. It was AWESOME.. I did not understand bunches though. But I did not fall asleep ... so jetlag is finally wearing off! Anyways I met some really cool people there was this one girl that really made an impression on me. She is my same age, she has helped her two younger siblings come into the truth since she was 10. And now she is attending both an english and chinese congregation, her english is amazing. She took me around to meet different friends and they all practiced their english. Apparently all the kids get together and do evening witnessing. There was one 14 year old brother who was interviewed he takes the lead on wed. nights... and he said something else which impressed everyone,... moved them to oooooss... and ahhhh..s but i dunno. Anyways, so there were 20 ppl baptized and about 1,950 people in attendance. I found brother and sister Huang amongst the hundreds of people, it was pretty cool... SO COOL i found someone I knew, what are the chances of that happening? So many zelous people!
After we left the assembly we headed back home ( sister chous house which is on 12th floor , by the way the view from the roof is AMAZING!) I soooo wanted to go to sleep ... but Sandy took me out again, we went to something called yuren.(something) Fishermans wharf or something like that... anyways its a tourist spot, a lot of ppl come and walk on the bridge mostly couples (It was just me and Sandy so we kept each other company... *sigh*) anyways ... so then we made a couple other stops and came home. When we arrived we went up to the roof and watched the fireworks. SOOOOOOOOOOO... piaoliang.
So now I will bid farewell and goodnight!

First Couple of days in Taibei!
Sorry everyone! It took forever to get internet access. Everything is under control now though. >.< style=""> At the food market we purchased this fruit I have never had or even heard of … its called LianWu… It’s like a skinny apple… I will show you a pic. So then I ate a Hu Jiao Bing (like a fried bun with meat and vegetables inside). Then we ate some yogurt smoothie things and then had Korean dumpling noodle soup.. even with the heat. >.< Afterwards I was super Baole! I think I might need to slow down a little with the food. -_-; Not to mention last night we went to the big night market and I ate too much then on top of some sushi Nancy gave me. Oh yeah by the way yesterday we went to a spa… and had massage… wow was that nice, that was the first time that I ever had a massage.. I almost fell asleep but it was too painful at times ha ha! Super relaxing though! COOL COOL! Ok well honestly I could spend hours sitting here but … uh … I sleepy now and I will download some pics.

Wo Daole!
WoW! What a trip! So we finally lifted off and everything, then we arrived in NY… then we were ready for the long trip to JAPAN! OH BOY! Yes I was excited! KESHI! The flight was Super Long. It was never ending! Aiya! Can u imagine sitting in a cramped space with henduo people! And a little girl kicking you the whole way! Ha ha! Nothing good was on the little TV thing, but I had my trusty laptop and Ipod, and yearbook… which I have not finished reading. >.<; So … let’s talk about how AA flight attendants. Have a super huai piqi! They must just be under a lot of pressure. Yelling at people all the time. I mean come on, not everyone speaks English. AIYO! (And the food Oh My let’s not begin… maybe just a little… what’s up with the food! The last meal was 3 pieces of chicken mixed into watery uncooked rice… good thing I had a frozen sandwich before ..>,<; ha ha! Don’t worry I took pictures not of the nasty food though or I mean the nastiest.) Well well…. When we got JAPAN, I was super excited! For Real! I took pictures of everything! I mean everything was cooler there than here! I took pictures of everything TOO!

The "D" word!
DELAYED!!!! Yep yep yep! Ha ha! So this morning my sis and Jam headed over to Breakfast at the one and only "Waffle House" I had the big breakfast thingy I can't remember the name of. The rest of the crew consisted of Dong Ivan Jacob Denise and Bauluo! (Yep Bauluo left his busiest day just for a little while for Cali!!!)I did not shed a tear! we rushed over to the airport. When I arrived I was supposed to load the rest of my dongxi in my other bag that Joy had. When we arrived... No Joy!... So I called her, she was still @ her house! AIya! So we waited around now the group grew, Nikki, Erin, Fe,Nancy, and my mom and sis came rolling in. (MAN time flew so fast!) Later I get a call from Joy SHE HAD A FLAT TIRE!! "Zenmeban!" So we made arrangements of who would go get her, but Edward changed that tire like nobodys buisness! Ha ha!so then we checked and all(Thank You to all those who came and also helped me check in and do all that good stuff! Awww we didn't do the worms eye view pic! Hao kelian) anyways ... So I said my goodbyes! And went thru the security thingy, it was one thing after the other,(apparently u r supposed to put the bags on the rolly things, if not they won't get checked ha ha -_-; as u can tell I don't fly much) Ok so from aside from that we raced over to the very last gate! To fly out to JFK... Or atleast that is still the plan, after all of that, NY desides to have horrible weather! So we are delayed! And I am sitting here watching a guy eat carrots and celery, while reclining with feet up XD... The guy next to me seems nice, I should say hello but I'm sleepy so I think I will take a nap! Yeah that sound good. Ok well ZAIJIAN! (Oh and Joy and Aili say ni hao! They are a couple seats behind me, but I know they would send greetings Ha hA!)

Last Night in NC for 7 WEEKS!
AIYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's Finally here everybody!
After a long day of preparation the time is finally here. It is 10:30 and I still have a long list of need to do's! One by one though it will all be done. That is until 4 o'clock comes around. The plan is to go to go to the one and only "WAFFLE HOUSE" before the airport... plane takes off at 7:55am. It should be fun! Sorry for the lack of enthusiasm... I feel kinda sad leaving. Aiyo! I don't wanna miss a thing. I will only be gone for 7 weeks but it feels like a lot will change while I am gone. I am gonna miss all of "ya'll" for REALS!
It seems it will be raining the entire first week in Taibei. That's sad... but someone brought up a good point it is ... "TAIWAN rain!!!!!!!!!!" yep yep! You see Taiwan rain is so much different than the rain here in North Carolina. I'll be sure to let you know what it's like! (random thought what if it rained Milk Tea in Taiwan!? That would be AWESOME!) I doubt that but it would be cool Cali.... Oh oh oh She's starting to talk to herself again!! Better stop typing! Ok everyone... see you on the other side!
