Hello!!!! I'm In Kaohsiung now. Moved here on Monday by Bus. It was a nice ride. I watch a couple of movies without sound. Afterwords I found out that there were speakers behind my seat that could have been turned on. Oh well.
Anyways, Moryam and I have have more training down here. We will definitely take all we can get, but right now I'm at the point where I just want to start. I don't think I can really improve much until I get my hands dirty, so to speak.
I definitely like the city better than Taipei. At least for now. It seems more Navigable. However, that's not saying much; you can be right next to the electronics store and not know it because most of the signs are written in Chinese. I definitely am planning to take a course in Chinese. Then I will actually know what I'm Eating. I won't have to worry about it being Dog.
Food is Great, and Cheap (great, assuming that I've not been eating Dog). You can usually get a good meal for less than $3US. It will be interesting to see how many hours we will be working. Right now were not sure. But they will definitely be in the evenings.
Most likely, I will be getting a scooter. YES!!!!!! Kaohsiung doesn't have a very good public transportation service yet, so most people use scooters or cars.
That's about all for now. Oh, Wait, The last thing. A fun little blurb that I composed in free verse because Moryam ( also known as Van opstallion) was making fun of my awesome rhyming skills:
The light of the evening sun
Is like golden fire on the East China Sea.
Above the clouds of mist and rain the cry of the bird roars.
It flies its own path and chooses its own destiny,
And those who fly with it choose a fate not of their own making.
They have with strong wings subdued the wind.
But only for a time.
That all. What fun!!!!
Until Later,
Jonathan
