Hello! SOOOO many things have happenned in the last weeks its incredible! So sorry that i didnt write that much! two weekends ago I went to the Yingge Ceramic Festival with my friends from school! It was erally great I had such a good time! I made a pot, and i got to know more poeple from my school that werent in my class.. weplayed games, looked at some cermaic things! Also i got to write my aspirations and dreams for teh year on a piece of wood then put it in the fire and wish when it burnt.. so that was really unique for me to do that! So last week, the BIG chinese exam got canceled and put back for 2 weeks, so i was SOOO HAPPY! haha The week went by really fast cause i WAS soooo excited for the weekend!! It was our Tea Farm tour weekend tour with all the exchnage students from our disctrict in Taiwan and also the ones in the middle of taiwan.. so we went to cities about 6 hours away from Taiwan, like TaiNAn and Hinschu, it was soooo great and beautiful!! The other exchnage students are soooo awesome!! Most of them i feel like they are my really good friends, and it was an amazing trip. But, the whole weekend I was really sick cause i had a cold from before, yet i had the best time!! On the first day, we left Taipei at 7am and we went to Hinschu (i tihnk) to visit the technological Community Park.. its really great, where they invent stuff, like all the major companies are placed their and the community is built aroudn those jobs. Its really interesting, then we went i really dont know where haha but we went to eat lunch at this nice restaurant it was really goood. SO then we went to the SunMoon Lake.. and it was soo nice, like the water was greenish , and it was so beautifulll!!! We also went to taste tea and it was reallly coool! tehn we went to eat super at this really nice restaurant and we had a Country party, like every country would go up and do an act! It was soo funny and cool! Canada we sang our national anthem half french and english than Hey hey you you i dont like your girlfriend, then hey hey toi toi jaime pas ta blonde du tout! then hey hey wo bu xi huan ni de nu peng you! (which is obviously Chinese...it was really cool) it was fun! they we danced till late and then went to the hotel and we talked talked with all our friends so we went to bed REALLLLY Late then we had to get up at 6:30 and leave at like 7 something so everyone was prety much dead the next morning!!!! hahah Then, the 2nd day we went to an Aboriginal Culture Park, where it was also an amusement park. So they greated us with like a ceremonial dance and we got to jump over a fire to get into the park, then walk under flowers then we went to see an aboriginal show, like dancing and ceremonies it was realy awesome (i will post a video on here)! Theres like 13 tribes in all of taiwan! Then we spent the rest of the day going on rides an it was sooo cooooll!!! it was the first time i went on 2 roller coastersss!! The first one was really cool cause it was really dark inside and it was like u were in space.. so i didnt want to go on it, but my freidn drew and genesis LIED to me and said oh its really cool, like it goes super slow and u see stars and sutff... i was like omg sweet... yea i think i screamed like a BABY!! it was soooo fast and really really terryifing but i LOVED IT!! haha Then I decided to conquer my fears and go on the biggest roller coaster there with LOOPS and twisty things!!! OMGGGG i screamed THE WHOLE TIME!! like my friend were sitting in front of me and then there like... we heard on person scream the whoel time....and they asked me how i held my breath for soooo long.. cause i litterealy did not stop screaming!! haha It was so fun though!! So after that we went to eat supper at Shabu Shabu, a restaurant where u cook your own food! it was sooo fun but i was sooo tired!! haha ,.. then we went to a night market... it wasnt that great compared to the night markets ive been too but it was still really fun!! THen after we went to our hotel room where again we went to bed really late but me i had an excuse cause i saw 5 dead cockroaches in the stair case so i was completely terrified like alll nighhhhtttt! So the next morning we left at about 7:30 so we woke up SUPER EARLYYYYYYY! so everyone was litteraly dead.. so we went to see Dutch architecture from when they were in power.. then we went to a little market. then we went to a lagoon near the ocean and it was fun!! we goto play in teh water and look for crabs and pick oysters!
