2 FRIGGIN MONTHS BABY

Hello everyone!! WELL on july 1st i was here for 2 whole months WOW CAN you believe it?? cause i cant.. honestly the first week i got here i thought i would be gone in a month but i am so happy i have stuck it out!! and im sure after another couple months it will be like i dont want to leave ( well maybe i wont go that far) haha this weekend has been pretty mellow just enjoying being here shopping alittle at the markets! I FEEL like my plans for traveling change daily hahah and the lenght of time that im staying changes all the time to RIGHT NOW i know for sure that i will be def staying untill november because of my ticket will i stay much longer after that?? i am not sure !! but i know i am doing this for me AND NOT ANYONE ELSE and im being extremly selfish because its all about me i cant worry about letting people down or not sticking my contract out because i have to do whats best for me! yeah anyways i dont have much to say today nothing to exciting is happening yet just pumped about getting my scuba certificate and im doing lots of investageting on flying to all these countries that i want to see, i have realized i prb wont come home with alot of money because of all the sight seeing i wanna do but hey i have my whole life to make money, and i have this once to explore the east free with out anyone telling me when i have to leave or without me having any commintments back home so i am taking full advantage of it :D love you all!!

hahah ooh before i forget, so you know how theres those machines that you put money in and thers like a claw that you try and get a teddy bear or w.e with AHAHAH well they are everywhere here, and its funny because theres like porn videos dildos, vibraters right in WITH THE TEDDY BEARS!!!!!!! Porn videos can be bought everywhere and think of like a store like save on foods where anyone can go into, on isle having pots and pans and then the next isle having dildos hahaha !!!!!!!!!!!!! its kinda gross kinda funny love you all

life goes on

So its not as if i expect everyone to stay the same, or sit back and do nothing while im over here..its just kinda hard sometimes thinking the life is going on everyone is moving on doing new things etc and im not apart of it.. maybe part of me thought all my family would sit at home wait for me to come back as stupid as that sounds!! i dont know its almost as if im trying to stay connected to the life back at home, something that i dont feel apart of anymore:(.. and then trying to start a new one here that no one at home could even begin to relate to so today im struggling with that a bit!! im really proud of myself tho im running everyday,, theres a track like a mentioned before right by our apartment haha and it even has bats that at around 6ish they start to come out... BEFORE I FORGET mom thank you SOOOOOOOO MUCH FOR THE CARE PACKAGE When i talked to you on the phone i never thanked you!!! all the things were great!!!!!!! i think i might be a size 11 now which is cool because the pants you sent me are to big hahah i dont mind tho!! i have been finding alot of clothing shops that have all kinds of sizes because there are heavy people here lol ! its getting hotter by the day which is good/bad YEAH FOR NO BRAS lol.. i have started to have a bit of road rage hahah its very funny actually because someone will cut me off or whatever and ill YELL IM A FRIGGIN FORIENGER YOU CANT DO THAT I DONT KNOW HOW TO DRIVE LIKE THAT BLUHBLUHBLuh and they turn with a big grin on there face and nod there head a couple times as if i liked him doing that haha they obviously dont understand what iam saying which is honestly kinda nice!! i could be telling themoff but as long as i have a smile on my face they love it hahah anyways IM FEELING BETTER!!! my flu from hell seems to be going away and hopefully i wont get another one for a while fingers crossed... LOVE YOU ALL... ps Keep me posted on the baby situation Giselle.... and i hope all is going well with you hows landon doing anyways ?? ttyl

IM IN FRIGIN TAIWAN

Hey evryone, sorry i have not been writting as often, i just really have been soaking up being here and really coming to the realization that im doing this!! i set this huge goal, and im doing it im living it!! its so incredible i dont know i wish you guys were here to experience this!! people say its life changing and they are so right! i am really seeing what i am made of, i have finally found my voice, and as strange as it seems i feel like i have never been more true to who i am then right now being here!! You know some days its just so hard and you wish you could go somewhere and not be noticed, just escape!! and you drag your butt all day and then on the way home your driving your scooter and you see mountains right in front of you with the clouds starting to roll in, and on the left you see what seems like miles and miles of rice patties that are actually very beautiful when there all green, and on your right you see palm trees agaisnt a pink/blue sky and it almost takes your breathe away and you think how lucky am i ?? and usually that feeling lasts about 5 mins before a BIG HUGE bug smacks you in the chest and when i say big i mean LITTERALLY THE WIDTH OF THREE FINGERS AND THE LENGHT OF YOUR PINKY!!! Yeah after that the feeling goes away hahah but you have to take in the bad if you want to take in the good!! I was talking to my mom the other night and telling her this was the best/hardest/scariest/unexpected/amazing jorney that i am on!! ahhh lol anyways im doing really good we have found some really good places to eat and there hot pots mmmmm soo good and healthy and we are running into more english teachers as time passes,theres a track right by my apartment and we found the movie theater and theres two swimming pools! my traveling plans might change a bit in the next littler while just because of graduation with out students i migth not beable to get the time off !! but anyways i love you all soooooo much honestly thank you so much for your support!! and ill leave you with the song lyrics to one of the songs i feel best describes me right now


Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her
is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her
feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm

Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me

I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner
like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer
when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on a wire

Suddenly I see

And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes
looking from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel
like I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see

Suddenly I see

Hello... Well today was really good.. Im really glad i got put at HuiHwa its an awsome school !! and i can tell even when i leave im going to keep intouch with some of the english teachers cause there amazing!! Sharrno is actually done working at the school as of July 31st because she is coming to Canada for 6 months to study english in sept soo thats really exciting for her.. kinda sucky for me but lol oh well.. And jeanie really wants to come to canada to, but she is worried about money and she has a three year old boy ethan and she is not sure how she would bring him with her.. Its so funny so many people are dying to leave canada to see the world and what it has to offer... while on the other hand people are dying to come to canada to achieve somethign that all of us take for granted.. opertunity.. Bonny my principal is soooooo nice.. I told her that I was scared about staying alone in my apartment and she was like then you dont go you stay at my house untill you ready.. and even after you move to huwie you can still every lunch hour come to my house and use computer, or have a nap you always welcome... haha the people here are honestly amazing i dont think you could find nicer people.. Im kinda blabbing tonight cause i got so much to say and i feel like its just not coming out right.. its so weird my emotions haha one min im having the time of my life the next min or day im crying cause i miss home.. im sure thats normal, i just i think if i were to come home now i would be taking the easy way out.. and i honestly feel like ive done enough of that in my life, and i dont need to do it anymore.. Ive been talking to Erin the teacher that was at HuiHwa before me because while she was there she did a bunch of volunteering at orphanages so im going to see what i have to do or where i have to go inorder to do that because i think that would be pretty amazing.. as for saving money.. man its so darn hard to save money when your here just for the simple fact that i want to go and see sooooooo much that it will be hard for me to come back with much.. actually thats not true ill come home with alot.. just not money hehe .. thats ok tho im hoping there will be a job for me at baby-pops hahah Giselle in the words of donald trump YOU FIRED lol just kidding .. your the glue now that holds that place together:D..actually i was really hoping to get a job at like old navy haha (i like the clothes there) heeh.. anywyas now im just rambling.. Just so everyone knows IM FINE mom im not being flooded out or anythign like that!!theres alot of rain here but its the rainy season lol . Love you all
p.s DEANNA i miss ya

Lfe is full of fears

Well today i moved in to huwei and i was really excited and really scared all at the same time.. i had to pay an extra 1500nt becase they said they cleaned it HAHAH what a joke i spent 4 hours cleaning.. huwei is a really nice town and its a college town so theres alot of people my age AND HOT BOYS!!! I LOVE HOT BOYS haha its nice to finally see some thats for sure.. but im back in lunbei tonigth.. i dunno i got really scared all a sudden just having second thoughts about everything.. and its not just about being here its gaining weight.. its not exersizing enough .. its missing home.. its being alone..its fear of settleing for something less or something that im not sure about ... i dont knwo it got to me.. and i dont have a computer at my apartment yet so i came back to bonnys to spend the night.. she is such a nice lady!! im so happy that i came.. and i know ive only been gone alittle while but its like lol how do people honestly move away for so long i mean i heard all kinds of stories about people teaching away for 5 years or staying... the teaching is great its fun exciting.. but i dont understand how some people can stay away for so long, i dont know if its becasue im really close to my family or if its just becuase this is all still very new to me.. either way its mind boggling!! soo ive made some travel arrangments... im going to hong kong on july 11th for 5 days and on augest 29th im going to the philipines for 2 weeks :D:D:D:D im pretty excited about that.. anyways i love you guys all sooooo much and i miss you all thanks again for all the support:D

Well today was full of intersting things happening... i woke up with a screaming headach.. and at 9:00am the power went off :O:O ooooooooooh ya lol Bonnys two kids were here but she had left for school soo my first thought would be to look for a breaker box hahah well in taiwan houses there are not windows in everyroom in fact there are no windows except for the front of the house that looks into the garage... and the back of the house that looks into the feild soo here all three of us our sitting in complete dark all wondering what to do.. might i mention we have this HUUUUUUUUUGE language barrior between us.. lol soo i go hunting for what hmm a flash light, lighter something.. anything and i find a flash light YES only to try and turn it on and realize hmm its dead ahhhhhh soo i remember wait i have a couple lighters on the stand in my room ( which is completly dark") soo i go hunting moving my hands around and then SMASH A glass jar/aroma thing smashed into a million pieces on to the floor letting out this overwhelming amount of oder that honestly was so overbearing i had to stand outside because it was so strong.. lol sooo now its completly dark... completly stinky.. and i have two children asking me what we do now .. what we do now... Now i was going to correct there grammer but i thought it was not the time... so we sit.. and we sit 9:00 turns to 1:00.. stuff in the fridge is melting phones dont work.. so i get this great idea everyones power cant be out and i could atleast drive with allen and judy to a pay phone to call there mother because im sure she would know what to do ... ( btw all day we have been playing with the breaker turing it on and off to see if it will work.. an no it didnt) sooo i try and explain to the children to come with me lol but they dont understand so i decided lol to go to the cram school that i teach at to see if they have power.. HAHAHA soo usually i put my keys in my purse but for some reason last night i didnt so i had to walk into my room pitch black and try and find them... well the smell over took me again and then i thought omg this gross smell is going to seep into my clothes i gotta clean this up.. so here i am with a broom .. a mop and a dust pan sweeping something i cant see.. all i can do is hear the glass being swept ... and then the mopping its one of those sponge mops soo i have a pale and im mopping dunkin it in water and moping but the smell is not going anywhere so i smell the mop OMG IT STINKS SOOOOOOOOOOOOO BAD soo i brought it to my bathroom you know the one wtiht he shower in the sink lol and i start cleaning the mop.. go back mop some.. go to the bathroom clean the mop .. then go mop some more.. finally i got my room to where is was bearable and i started looking for my keys .. hahah the funny thing is how do you look for somethign you cant see??????????????????? yeah lol soo i gave up ( p.s i couldnt use the liter because i burnt my thumb realy bad because it got really hot while i was looking around.. ) ok so finally i get this brillent idea once again.. and i say well last night i got home i wnt straight to my room and i put everyhting on my desk.. and then i continued to pack some stuff so maybe just maybe i put it into my makeup bag WOLA WOLA lol.. there my keys were so i leave i go to the school and they have power now the enligh teachers were not there soo i had to try and explain to bonnys mother that she had no power hahah that was funny.. finally i got to use the phone and i called bonny to let her know what was going on and her answer was why.. lol why is the power off I THOUGHT TO MYSELF ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyways so i left with 6 containers of turkey rice apparently there grandmother was afraid we would starve... so i get home and we wait... wait... its now 4:30 and im teaching the kids the witch doctor song you know ooo eee oaa ting tang walla walla bing bang.. after singing we decided to go play the piano for a bit.. and finally im like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH im going to go check the breaker one more time i flip all the switches and waaaaaaaaaaala lol POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the angels were singing!!! hahah... anyways thats pretty much alli have to say for now that was my exciting news for the weekend.. oh p.s im moving tomorrow:D

cut the mole hairs

lol ... hahahhaa oooooooooooook people in taiwan soo i get your not supposed to pluck hairs out of a mole HOWEVER lol when you have several hairs that are about 5-10 inches long USE SCISSORS lol honestly its like austin powers... moly moly moly A BU lol sorry im sure you all are reading this and are like what!! lol but its the funniest thing you have these women and men walking around with loooooooooooooooong mole hairs and when i say long i mean looooooooooooooooong anyways just wanted to share that with you all :D

Hello all...Hey giselle yeah im sure working has become such a drag now that im not there.. i mean wheres the drama... wheres the humour... wheres the cheekyness lol it left and now its in a forieng country with noone to joke with.. lol i was having a really blonde day as you all know i have hehe and i was trying to explain to Jenie what that ment and she just did not understand .. they do not really get jokes here at all which sux but theres this guy murphy who lived in canada to learn english for 5 years so he comes to the school once a week and bugs me all day which is nice and refreshing... !! the culture is very different i mean the kids get slapped on the mouth of on the hand/butt if there not being good at school theres certain things you cant say like death or dead because if you do someone in your family will die... tehy are VERY VERY SUPERSTIOUS when someone dies they put like this huge tent over there store or house its usually red.. and they will hire like strippers to come in for the men becasue they represent something really bad and if all the bad energry is pointed towards the stripers the dead person wont get very much... they also rely on the calender for barring them so only good times of the year they will get barried... however everyone is always creamated its weird because whole familys will have one great tumb stone thing and it will be in the middle of a corn feild lol its supposed to bless there food tho... People here are really really nice!! espesially because i am a white girl alone.. its they see me and always smiling always trying to feed me.. when i started looking for apartments lots of teachers at my school offered me to live with them for free just because its a great honor for them to have me stay... When you invite someone out for dinner here you pay its not like in canada were you split tabs or ill pay tip you pay this its always the person who offers and dont even bother to try and offer to pay because they wont let you..!! and actaully there is no tipping here lol.. no tax which is nice.. I like to think of taiwan as the smartest/dumbest people in the world because they grilled to know so much of there own language and then theres english.. but man they can be sooooo slow and just like dumb at the same time lol its very weird anyways ive blabbed long enough haha .. have a good night everyone !!

My apartment
