I...

1. Decided that this is my new favorite font, so hopefully you like it too.

2. Am craving this: And this would be my favorite tepanyaki place in Feng Yuan. I got addicted to certain restaurants, and would frequent them. After my 6:40-8:40 pm class I was too tired to cook anything, so I would get take-out. It was actually cheaper than cooking for myself. I am craving the lamb, the bean sprouts, and the fried cabbage like none other!

3. Am reading this:
The Glass Castle is a memoir by Jeannette Walls. A wonderful story-teller, Walls shares with her readers her bizarre upbringing, and I'm guessing (because I'm not done reading it yet) how she was able to come out a normal person. And of course my incredibly small summary won't do the delicious book justice. Her writing is amazing. I wasn't sure I was in the mood to start this book because it seemed like it would be depressing, but her ability to tell her story is remarkable. I recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it yet.

4. Want to play this:

Red light, green light was my BR class' favorite game. I miss their rambunctioness!

5. Miss her...:Gloria is one of the secretaries that works at Berhan, and is one of my great friends. I could go to Gloria for anything. She taught me Chinese, took me to the doctor, let me use her internet when the school's wasn't working, took me hiking, and supplied me with hours of good conversation. Gloria was like my mom away from home, and I miss her so much!

6. ...And them:
These are the four girls from my fourth grade class: Leia, Nancy, Wendy, and Madline. I looked forward to going to this class every day. They were the greatest!

7. Want to rock out like this:



This was an FHE activity where each room had to come up with a lipsinc. Sadly, I don't remember the song we did, and I think we had more fun dressing up than doing the actual lipsinc. And I just think that Connie looks freakin' awesome! Not to mention Megs awesome tattoo!

8. Miss the freedom of driving one of these:



Or should I say ride, because I was often too scared to actually drive one. And when I actually did, I happened to end up in a ditch all to often. Go figure. But I do really miss zipping around town and the feel of the wind blowing through my hair, the bugs in my mouth...you just got to love the whole experience.

9. Am currently obsessed with this:

The Soundtrack to the Original Motion Picture Amelie= HEAVEN! I can listen to this soundtrack over and over again and never get tired of it.

10. Am excited to be here:

Ok, so you can probably tell that this picture was taken the last time I was in DC, but that doesn't mean that I don't like being here now. Especially since it's so bitter cold. :) I'm glad I made the decision to move out east, and I think I'll be here for a while.
