After a weekend of the tropical storm Sinlaku lashing through Taiwan, now the skies are clear and we can go out without getting wet. Taipei is not badly hit as its not very near the coast and all the warning systems are in place. However for other areas like Hualien and Yilan, they suffered more casualties as they are not as ready for such a huge storm. Anyway by Gods grace, Im safe and sound over here.
Yesterday there was a orientation talk, but most of the things briefed were not regarding us, but more for the full-time students. There was a portion where I actually fell asleep Heh. Later on managed to visit the student centre where all the extra curricular activities are going on. I am still pondering what to join, probably something new and wont take up too much time. Maybe dancing or even baseball? Wanna learn something different while in Taiwan.
Later in the evening went to Taipei 101 shopping area and Shihlin night market again. Had the huge "Ji Pa" ( Fried Chicken Chop) again and one is really enought to fill your stomach. Today got to drink more water in order to prevent myself from getting sore throat. Managed to meet up with the other students from NUS as well, and had a decent time catchin up with them, askin bout how is their uni and dormitory.
Today will be going swimming later around noon and after that going out again. Tmr will be starting classes le, hope I can understand what the lecturer is saying heh.
