Days are turning into weeks ...

... weeks are passing quickly. I've been in Taiwan for between 5-6 weeks now. I can't believe it!

Today, I started a language exchange with one of my fellow student from my Monday class. This weekend, I have training for the volunteer program that is linked between my class and the Fine Arts Museum. Next week, I start teaching a conversational English class to a small group of university students. So, things are still moving along ...

My family has just mailed a package to me and I can't wait for it to get here! It should be here in about 7-8 days I think ... so with weekends included, it will be about a week and a half.

While I am currently making no attempt to catch up on all previous days' pictures, I will share the photos from today. ^-^ Enjoy!

The right section of the classroom huddled around the teacher to watch him do examples of our classwork for the day:


My first-ever try at calligraphy ... its much harder than it looks :)


This student shared the desk with me and was my "go-to" person for the many questions that I had during class:


My second page of calligraphy and trying out some different strokes ...


My teacher correcting the homework assignments from last week:


Dad, this picture is for you! Yes, they DO have a place where you can get criss-cut fries. :)
