Location | Taichung

So the biggest lessons I have learned these past few days is a) take sleeping pills on the plane or you will be wishing for your destruction b) get plane seats early so you get to sit next to the people you are traveling with c) laptops go into the xray machine separately and d) Taiwan public bathrooms don’t come with toilet paper, bring your own.

Anyway, so the plane ride was super long and I only slept like 2 hours out of the last 28 hours. I didn’t sleep well last night cuz my grandma fed me bubble tea… and of course I couldn’t sleep after that.

Today is my birthday, I’m 19~! Woohoo! I get a cake and lots of money from relatives. Oi, we love birthdays in Taiwan. Today I’m going to Taipei to take a placement test and look for housing. I probably get to see my cousin too…

I don’t get it, but I live on the 4th floor of my grandma’s building, but I don’t run out of breath climbing up… wow. Oh, and the stupid dog my grandma has BIT ME. I have a round bite mark on my foot. Oh and the bird that they got is REALLY ANNOYING. It keeps making noise as I sit here.

Anyway, hopefully I will pass out tonight because I really need some sleep. Ok, my aunt and great uncle are here to take me to Taipei. So I’m off!
