I got a scooter license

Its been a long time since I've blogged. Too long. Life here in Taiwan has been mostly pleasant since then. I continue to work at Kojen teaching children English, and in the mornings most days I study Chinese at TLI (Taipei Language Institute). The weekend after next is Tomb sweeping weekend, so we will have a three-day holiday. I'm feeling totally jazzed about that, and will hopefully get to travel the island a bit.

Since being here in Taiwan, I have really come to appreciate a two day weekend, since I work on saturday. Amazing how much you appreciate something when it's finally gone.

Last weekend, Moryam and I drove down to a coast city and took a ferry to a small island about 40 minutes from Taiwan called "Xial LiouChou". Its a pretty little island that was once covered almost entirely with Coral. It makes for a nice day get away from the city.

Recently, I got my scooter license. I can now drive legally! Whoohoo!

Nothing really exciting has happened yet. Still haven't saved any maiden or slain any dragons. But I'm working on the second.
