Still in Taipei
Location | Taipei
I’m still here, but tomorrow is my last day. Today I went to Hsimen with Sami, Steve, and her cousin. I’ve spent so much money… -_-;;;;;;; I got another Takeshi poster and also a Takeshi sticker… Then I went up to Danshui with Steve and I got gifts for my friends. Stevie and I had some mussels and vegetables. Total cost: less than $10 american. Oh yeah, at Hsimen we also got sticker pictures… but the big problem was… the machine was in Japanese so we had NO IDEA what was going on… the poor pictures…
Anyway, I can’t believe I’m leaving tomorrow. I’m really sad. I really love Taipei now… but I must… go… oh the sadness… At least in November I’ll probably see Sami, Timmy, George and Stevie… aww the Californians.

Hi, my name is Joanna and I'm a 24 and a graduate of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I studied Anthropology and Asian Languages and Cultures with a focus on Japanese. I currently work in New York City at Time Inc in the Consumer Marketing Division. The titles I work on are Money, Fortune, & Real Simple Magazines. I am focused on retention and billing for the magazines. My family is Taiwanese, but I was born in Pittsburg, Kansas. I speak two languages fluently: English and Mandarin Chinese. I have a good grasp of the native Taiwanese language, I studied French for 5 years, and I studied Japanese for 3 years at a college level. I love languages, but it is tough when I don't have the chances to utilize them in an everyday environment. I have so many different interests, from art, music to technology. I love things like reading the news or just hanging out with friends. I like to try new things, especially new foods or going to unknown places.
