Back from Taiwan!!

I am back from Taiwan! It was a real blast, though it was also real tiring from the sleep deprivation and intensive walking. I did minimal shopping, maximum walking, but most importantly, I made new friends and renewed old bonds. New were from Singapore, those that went on the trip with us. Real interesting people, with some I already usually see in NUS before this trip. When the new semester starts, I can say 'Hi' to them. Old bonds are the ones that I already knew, those from GS, 3 girls that I knew before and most importantly, a few Taiwanese girls.

Globalisation is so interesting. So many things we can learn from other cultures. I am truly grateful that I am bilingual because I was able to communicate with the Taiwanese locals. Have to revise my Mandarin, as well as pick up Japanese.

我也会多用一些华文。不想因为学日文而把母语给忘了。那太忘恩负义了。语文的用处就是在于表达。我的华文程度一定不比很都人强,但能学以致用也算没对不起我中学教师了。台湾真是好玩。横可惜不能多留几天,和当地的人多多交流。日本,香港,台湾是我就喜欢的国家。很希望能多去着几个国家,行的话能在着些国家工干就太好了!!还要感谢碧莲,雅其,碗欣和迎余的热情招待,让我们这些从新加坡来的都市小孩体验到台湾人的亲切与好客。要在来新加坡玩哦。我们也会尽情的招待你们的。 =)
