oh the horror...
man, where to start, this is gonna be a long one. first of all, my internet explorer and msn somehow stopped working and i havent been able to log on for a couple of days at home and its been driving me insane, i swear i almost threw myself off my window. but i am ok now, lol. right now im just at my local starbucks after having woken up at 5pm, its 7 now hahaha. I went out with a couple of other interns to this all you can drink latin bar, lol, it was a lot of fun, but very dangerous cuz of all the drinks, so i think i'll lay off places like that for a bit.
it's the holiday weekend where people have been celebrating the moon festival. its been awesome cuz everyone bbqs and the food is sooo good, lol. i've been to two already and they're filled with tons of food, fruits and moon cakes. the first was put on by my local Aiesec (NTU) and we had it near the river, good times. and the other was put on by the Taiwan Aiesec president and again stuffed my face. that is where i met other interns, and i found out that Marta (from Poland) actually works in the building across from mine. so yea, i had my first day of work which was good. im very excited to be in the marketing department and start planning some tradeshows. they were renovating the offices so it was quite dirty and we had to help move some of their stuff. and on tuesday we gotta set up so i dont think i actually start working until wed. but i have been assigned some books to read this weekend which makes me feel like im in uni again, lol.
finally went to taipei 101 (the world's tallest building, for now) and it was so awesome. you could see all of taipei and the mountains. i was a bit nervous being so high but i got used to it quickly, yall know im scared of heights, lol. and have still been trying to see all of taipei. here is a pic....
still trying a lot of different food, its so good and my chopstick skills are kick ass! i even get complimented on how proper i hold them, lol. people love to give compliments here and i think my head is getting so big, lol. the best one ive heard so far is that i have very charming eyes;) man, they really know how to make me blush, lol.

I wish I could've done up there. What a ridiculously big building. Too bad there aren't any tall buildings around it to show how tall it really is.
Lookin' good.
Oh I know about the compliments. Asian people really like to give compliments the moment they meet you. I even get thrown off myself and I'm asian!
