Time Traveling...



So...I made it! After 20 plus hours of grueling travel in a tin can, we are all in Taipei. We arrived around 9 PM of July 5. After picking up our luggage, we met with the people who will be helping us, Lydia and Queenie. They took us to a convenience store last night to buy foldable mattresses. Yes. Then, we all moved into our dorms (I am rooming with two MSU girls, Stephanie and Lily), I took a shower, and all collapsed in our beds. I woke up at 7:30 AM, but feel fine! The jet lag is definitely not as bad as it could be.

Today, I woke up and was greeted by our wonderful view. I guess I was too dead tired to notice anything last night. The landscape so picturesque...I wish I had a view like this at State.

We are all about to go out in a bit to explore the city since we have a free day. Then, it's back to studying a little since our Chinese placement test is tomorrow. First day in Taipei...so excited!
