This week I almost stay with Mavis. She take me to some place. And each place is good. First , We had dinner at a nice air restaurant,Lado. This restaurant is western cuisine. Like steak,pork,chicken....etc. There drink is free. So I drink 3~4 glasses of milk tea. As you can see how delicious it is. After the dinner we stay in the restaurant. Mavis say she want to study in a while.
Second, Kay's students and I go to see their lantern festival in Kaohsiung. That day the sky is so beautifull. And there are street pedlars and show. We had a glad time that night.
Third, Mavis take me to NATIONAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MUSEUM . She say there is about their majors. And there are so many machine. I try to use and know how it's elements.
Before go to NATIONAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MUSEUM. We eat breakfast. They are use to read newspapers during the breakfast time in breakfast store.
Today is their homeroom teacher's birthday celebration. Her birthday is on February 28 th. That day is special because the day is their National Holidays. So they decide to celebrate her birthday before. They buy present, write cards and record video. And fortunately, it's success about our plan for give their teacher a surprise. They play fun and I'm happy too. Though their teacher have a great time during the party. But she still no tears, let them a little depression. Anyway, the most important of all is their teacher feel moving.
After party, their teacher play some good video to them. It's about some inspirational video. And I learn a lot from them. What a wonderful day!
(I'm watch the video.Do you see me?)
Oh, I forget to say the bear next to me is Çağla. She is from Turkey.
Finally, they wanto know how you celebrate your teacher's birthday?
Today, Irose and Mars took me to the nightmarket.Mars told me the nightmarket was the biggest feature of Taiwan. In the nightmarket, I saw the vendors sell less-expensive products, traditional goods and many kind of Taiwanese local snack. The foods looked so delicious that I wanted to eat it all but I couldn’t, so I just tasted some.
First, we had Stinky tofu. Irose said that it was a form of fermented tofu and had a strong odor and that its shape wassquare. It was put into a pan, dipped with the fermenting bean curd, and fried. Finally, the vendor would put some pickle on it. I found it very delicious.
Than I felt thirsty, so we went to the tea shop to buy some drinks. I ordered the Tapioca milk tea. I knew that it was the most famous beverages in Taiwan and I’d love it. Tapioca milk Tea originated from Taiwan. It was made of little tapioca balls that were boiled in black sugar and dropped in the milk tea. It tasted great no matter it was made cold or hot.
It was pretty late. We had to go home, but I still felt a little hungry. They took me to try the final local snack “Oyster omelet”. Mars said that it was his favorite food. Then he introduced the Oyster omelet to me. He said that the dish was made of an omelet with some small oysters and vegetables in it. It was very nutritious. Because time passed so fast, we had to go home. I was glad to walk around the nightmarket and eat many special local foods with Irose and Mars. It was a nice memory. Hope I can go to the nightmarket again..
Dear Friends :
I am Happy to share with yoou how I celebrate Christmas in Taiwan. This is my frist time to celebrate Christmas in Taiwan. Our school set up a Christmas tree in the hall, and play the Christmas music at lunch time.
we hold a party at which we exchange gifts with classmate. There are a lot of gifts. And the teacher of the Mechanical drafting department also prepared some gifts for us. That was a lot of homeworks. In fact, he was just kidding. Everyone was relieved after that he said so. Someone will get funny gift such as five piece of bread, and balloons in special shape. It will make us laugh. That day, we will be in a cloud of Christmas. How do you celebrate in Tajik?
Dear Friends :
Even though Christmas is from western culture, we alos celebrate Christmas in Taiwan. This yoar, our class will hold a party in the classroom to celebrate Christmas. We will have many interesting activities at the party. For example, two of our classmates will sing love songs with a guitar and all of us will exchange gifts. On Christmas Eve, all the churches in Taiwan will hold Christmas party or prepare Christmas dinner for those who want to celebrate Christmas together.
A variety of shows will take place at these large banguets, such as a drama about Jenus and even draw lots activities. Each time when we celebrate Christmas in church, we can have Christmas day's feeling most. what are Christmas songs in Tajik? And what are customs about Christmas in Tajik?
We are proud of the big event of 2010 Taipei International Flora Exposition held in Taiwan. We gained the permission of AIPH(International Association of Horticcultural Producer) because Taiwan is known for flowers.
There are four garden suburbs and fourteen venues in Taipei Flora Expo. The main purpose is to make the Taiwaneses care about the enironment. Therefore, there are many green buildings such as the exhibition hall built of one hundred and fifty two million plastic bottles. The green buildings are with good ventilation so we do not need air-conditioning indoors.
The wonderful miniature landscape and spectacular wood carving make people feel like staying in a future world. You will say, "wow!" Of course, you must try the flower tea. there are experts to show you how to brew the tea and how to drink the tea. To our surprise, we can watch images 3D without wearing special glasses. most significantly, you will learn our history the way of flora.
We thank AIPH for this oppotunity and hope you can attend Taipei International Flora Exposition in Taiwan.

After I read the post. I am eager to know how can I participate this international event. We live in southern Taiwan, so we need to spend few hours traveling to Taipei. I am attracted by Mayday’s Flora Expo music video, and S.H.E.’s cute Flora Expo dance. They are really interesting! My family decide to visit Taipei during the Lunar New Year holidays. I’ m wondering which museum will be less crowed, so I can save some time from lining up. If fortunately, maybe I can run across some super stars at the spot. I am happy that Taipei city government hosts this amazing event for the Taiwanese with 2010 TAIPEI INTERNATIONAL FLOEA EXPOSITION. I realize that Taiwan is capable enough to hold such international high quality event.
The weather in Kaohsiung changed dramatically recently. These days we didn't have a sunny day, but a rainy day because the rain season is coming. In this season, maybe it is rainy in the morning, but later it will be sunny. The weather always makes us feel uncomfortable and sweat. The weather in Taiwan is very different from that in America,and Kaohsiung is in the subtropical region, so when the sun come out ,the temperature usually rises above 28'C. (In different time of the day, the weather changes rapidly big.) But when the winter is coming, it becames cold and we usually don't have rain for a long time. With the climate change, the weather in Kaohsiung becomes very strange in winter, and summer is long and the spring is short.
One day, I did the volunteer job to clean the National Defence Education Classroom with 紹宇、振廷with宇翔. When we went into the National Defence Education Classroom, we felt very hot and began to sneeze because the air overthere was not fresh and filled with dust. Needless to say,we had to open the window first. Then,we discussed in a minute and we decided to sweep the floor first and then mopped it. After we mopped the floor,we saw the books on the bookshelf which were very messy, so we arranged all the books to make them look tidy. A few minutes later, we finished all the chores and we felt satisfied because the classroom was looked like a new room to anyone who had never come here. In the end, we turned off the lights fans and close the windows and the door. Then we went back to our classroom. It's really a special experience to me. I've never done a volunteer service before.
