well the date is set.. August 6th! Home here I come! now lets not all burst in excitement.. ahah ill be back that night my flight should arrive around 8ish… 9 more days!

nice and simple post.. since i havent done anything lately.. =/

it seems like all ive been doing is EAT.. EAT.. and EAT…. *sigh*… ahah

well yesterday i went to COSTCO… damn costco owns…. i freaken love costco. they basically have the same setup and some of the stuff we have back home. but i got yelled at for taking a picture when walking in.. aha

saw some chinese group singing… was w/e…

k ive realized ive left this post open for like 2 hrs now and havent finished it… so i guess i wont ifnish it… ahah

but the countdown begins to coming home!

so theres been a lot of weird things ive seen, done, and ate while in taiwan.. ahah… i want to start of with something i find pretty funny. The names of bus drivers. “Snake” “Marlboro” “Hunter” just to name a few of the bus drivers funny names ive seen. ahah oh along with the whole english thing i love the signs they have here like the posts earlier in my trip here…

i guess i havent “done” anything that weird… but i hate waiting for the bus… everytime im stuck there waiting for the bus for like the most an hour then i give up to 30 mins to 20mins etc… IN THE HEAT… i hate the bus.

ate? well its not weird to me because ive had it before.. but to my readers… (rofl) its probably really weird… SMELLY TOFU.. oh shit that stuff is good.. but when your not eating it and you pass by when they are cooking it … it smells badddddd.. but its sooooooooo good… oh and i had the biggest piece of chicken ive ever seen or had in my life… aha

well the countdown begins to go home!

oh and excited there might be a typhoon coming monday/tuesday.. but everytime they say theres gonna be one it always never comes… ahha 3 times already.. but oh well.. im almost going home anyways.. dont need something stopping me from going home now do i? ahah kk im tired of this post. more next timeeeee

i really hate mosquitoes. i have like 6 on one leg. one on the other leg. one on each arm. WTF!!!! and they itch like mofoers.

another thing i really hate is when im walking and then i catch up to a person walking in front of me and i want to go to the side to pass them.. AND they freaken move to that side too… like wtf why cant you just walk straight.. theres nothing in front of them… they just out of nowhere slowly move over to the side that im going to pass… *sigh*

well on a better note… probably give or take atleast 3 more weeks.. and home sweet home? hopefully… not sure.. mom hasnt told me anything.. family here is trying to make me stay longer… but im gonna try to go back earlyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

its 1:30am and i just finished watching Hitch. a movie that i have seen bits and pieces of but not the whole movie. made me think.. if there was a real hitch id probably be a guy that would need it.. ahah. and if you know me… im shy… but it would be good to have someone like hitch.. “the secret to a kiss is to go 90% of the way and hold. for how long? as long as it takes for her to go the other 10.” ahah just stupid advice like that… im not saying i cant do it myself.. but if your a guy reading this you know what i mean. sry girls you dont have to worry about any of this. (yeah yeah and im not saying girls have nothing to ‘worry’ about.. but guys just have it harder. and if you dont think so.. then i guess youve never watched hitch.) but like in hitch i guess theres someone out there for everyone.. even me(?).. aha k well enough of me sounding all emo or w/e all this would be called but whats a blog for if im gonna keep everything im thinking to myself in my head?

so Friday July 18th was my last day at the hospital. sadly that doesnt mean im coming home right away. =/ but ill be back early august for sure… However on Friday I went to Dan Shui old street… pretty cool but we were there during the rain… alot of little shops and food carts.. then went to Shiling night market.. i guess its a more popular tourist night market.. its big.. and a lot of… yeah you guessed it.. FOOD.. ahah i seem to not be able to get away from places that have good food… i guess thats why im so fat..

Saturday July 19th got to finally sleep in alittle.. till 10… ahah… then talked to the parentals and brother… yet it was cut short because we wanted to go eat at some place that sells out FAST.. ahah so we go and yes once we got there they sold out.. *sigh* but lucky me the owner said alright ill give you one that someone reserved.. ahah .. its great to be able to have my aunts say “ahh come on hes from America.” ahah and they feel bad that i didnt get either the best or in this case any.. so they give me some… then my uncle and i dropped off my 2 aunts and he took me to a newly opened electronic center.. too many people… but i got some headphones and 3 ipod cases… ahah then we went to the HP store across the street to check out how much RAM is.. but i didnt bring my comp so i had no idea what kind of RAM i needed… so we went home.. and after dinner my uncles like lets go back so we did and ive got my comp upgraded to 2gb of RAM… because apparently my computer cant handle 2gb or more.. GREAT.. ahah but i dunno i dont really see a difference from the 1gb that i had before.. but i guess there is a slight difference… and i got an laptop case thingy to protect my laptop from getting scratched…

well we’ll see what today brings.

Jason Mraz.. songs = amazing… i’m yours, life is wonderful, live high, etc.

i leave this post with another quote from Hitch

“one dance. one look. one kiss. thats all we get. just one shot to make the difference between happily ever after and oh hes just some guy i went to something with once.”

i might of missed that one shot before. but if i had that chance to get that one shot again things may be different. (and different i dont mean the ‘happily ever after’ like married part) just like Wongfu.. im that NG… that nice guy… except for pt. 3? or w/e the last part is.. rofl…

as i lay here waiting for I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry to load.. ( have no idea why the internet is going so slow today) ive realized time is never on my side. this loading is taking forever wasting my time like its never gonna finish loading. and then on the other hand today is already the 17th of JULY… ive been on this island for 2 WHOLE months already… now tell me… how time flies? yet i remember the times when thinking damn 2 months is gonna be freaken long… and now without even knowing what day im leaving… the thought of 13 hours on a plane seems like a lifetime. now as time has passed by writing this i realize that the movie isnt loading… *sigh* so i shall go find another link…

TYPHOON IS COMING! sounds fun but we’ll see how “fun” it is when it arrives.. (if it arrives)

So i’ve been at Taichung since the 11th. and i guess the 9th for people back home… Taichung is the center of Taiwan. My cousin lives there and she has a pretty cool place.. finally got to sleep on a bed for a few nights… ahah nothing much to do there but sit around and watch tv or what not….. Got back to taipei and back to the extreme heat… even tho taichung was pretty hot as well but not as hot as taipei…. on Thursday i went to Chung Kung(sp?) ahah it was another hospital which was really big and then to the medical school along with the hospital… saw their labs.. and then went to lunch with that hospital’s chairmens… at some country club…. man that was the biggest turn table thing on the table ive ever seen… it was nice…

nothing new.. ITS SO HOT.

today i went and saw a lab that did tests on animals. poor bunnies, pigs, and mice. all in their cages… you can call it cruel and unusual punishment.. but without testing on animals first are you willing to be the test subject? sorry poor animals….

i never really paid attention but this may not be really a thing to put on a blog.. but i really find women smoking unattractive. i see cute girls when walking or w/e and they lift their hand up with the cig.. blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh unattractive.. aha

on another note.. “your still too young to understand” i FUCKEN hate it when adults say that to me.. yes i am the smallest in the family.. but it fucken pisses me off that they use it to just push me aside so they dont have to talk to me about the situation.. doesnt matter at 19 or 30 or 50 im still going to be looked as YOUNG to all the older people in my family.. fucken pisses me off… its like saying oh you dont know anything so shut up… i mean i am part of the fucken family too. *sigh*

ive been on this island for wayyy too long… time needs to go by faster.. family here always makes it seem like im a fucken dumbass.. since being here ive already gone to alot of the high class/expensive places to eat that they havent gone to. when i get back from going to one of those places they always ask me.. oh whered you go.. oh what did you eat.. and then they go oh thats so expensive and you dont even eat blah,blah, and blah.. what a waste… WTF bitches shit just because i dont eat everything you fuckers grew-up eating doesnt mean you can fucken make all these stupid remarks.. its the same as if they came to AMERICA and they didnt want to eat the things we eat.. fucken…..
or they think i dont understand chinese and shit.. so they think they can say shit behind my back well actually RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME and i wont understand.. bitches im not fucken dumb.. i wasnt born yesterday… im not fucken stupid. and its so FUCKEN hot here..

i really need to get off this island.. and away from this total different culture/lifestyle. shit.

FUCK.
