The other day a kid in one of my younger classes called me 'chocolate teacher'

awww! how stupi- I mean cute :)

ramadan kareem y'all. I hope it's been a blessed one so far.

I'm so excited, I found a mosque last week, it's beautiful - you can see it here. planning to go back today for the Friday prayer!

Oh and a good friend of mine from Toronto came to visit from Korea for a week. good times! weird crap happening left right and centre. guess that's what happens when two crazy black girls are walking around the streets of Taiwan like they own the place. I got a much needed holiday from work. man I still can't believe I'm a teacher, somebody pinch me.

heh my family asked me if I'm getting used to Chinese food.

short answer: NO.

long answer: are you sick, do you know what kind of ungodly, depraved sorry excuse for food I have to put up with here. if you've never smelled 'stinky tofu' count your lucky stars. they don't call it stinky for nothing! If it wasn't for McDonalds' I'd be starving right now. oh and I saw toasted cockroaches the other day. COCKROACHES FOR GOODNESS SAKES.. yeah so to answer your question...no I have'n't gotten used to Chinese food. never want to either. (p.s. no offense to any Chinese ppl reading this, I don't mean no disprespect but for the love of bob what were you thinking??!)
