Japanese Games, Mcdonald's, Halloween and ID!!!
So today I woke up nice and early and walked to school. I listened to my i-pod on the way and took pictures on my walk. It was very relaxing. Aoyama's Cross-Cultural class was first. The students taught us Japanese games. First I played a slap jack ...
Exhausted but alive
Thought it was time for an update. What a week this has been. I went back to Hong Kong for the weekend and spent some quality time with my mum and dad. It was so nice to be back with my family and the carefree-ness of it all...and the food! I can't wait ...

On the Plane Back to Taiwan

Day 12: All You Can Eat Glory
Up early to head out to Nagoya Castle, I was met with a site that I was unfamiliar with so far in Japan: a rebuilt castle. Yes, Nagoya Castle was destroyed in the war and rebuilt entirely in the early 1950s. The 230 yen metro ride and 500 yen ...
