A full day
One day in which my day was actually very busy, and mostly with social engagements. I went with my friend Stacy to the 樂華夜市 in 永和. Yonghe is a part of Taibei country but it's a seperate city. It seems slightly more relaxed than downtown Taibei. The night market is quite big and apparently is getting more famous. I also met Stacy's friend and had a long conversation about Chinese literature and Taiwanese cinema. I also met up with a language exchange partner. All in all, it was a really good day, good practice for my Chinese although it's also humbling because I still have such a long way to go until I'm fluent.
I also was shown a bookstore by Stacy where I could buy Edward Said in English if I wanted to, and Rey Chow, and Foucault. Instead, I bought Harry Potter 6. I'm not sure what this says about me, but I think it says something.

can you eat the hello kittys and pikachus in the picture?
yes, they are filled with 紅豆,奶油,and 芝麻. You ate that kind of stuff while you were here.
A wise choice. HP6 is really good!

*laughs* I like the cute figurines. I can't identify the one on the far left or the second one from the right, though... I obviously haven't been spending enough time around the Sanrio crowd. =p
