::dies::

Okay, the flight sucked. However, I had about four hours of sleep the night before, so I was basically passed out the entire way there anyway. I slept the entire four hours to LA. And then, from LA to Taipei I was out for the first ten hours. Not bad, eh? I usually sleep a total of three hours on that long flight. This time I actually missed a meal. Dammit. I was hungry, too =P We got to Taipei at 5 fuckin AM. Yeah. Thankfully, we were able to avoid a six hour layover at CKS 'cause my mom bitched at the airline representative.

So, we get here and head to our new house ::gasp::. It's actually pretty cool. My mom didn't let that designer lady do the entire house yet (under my persuasion, of course ~_^), so the whole place doesn't look like a shithole. In fact, it's pretty nice. The only sucky part is the tile in my room. It's like.. peachy pinkish. Go figure, the only part of this house I don't like is my room. The shower is soooo cool though-- there's a lil steamer thing and a massager thing =P hehehe it rocks!

We are very resourceless right now. We need to get our refridgerator from our old house to our new house (which I don't understand, since there was as very nice fridge in here before that they just took away today... =T). So basically we have to buy very little and eat as much as possible. =P. Speaking of food, I am now realizing that the only real reason there is to come to Taiwan is the food. I am going to gain 30% of my current body weight by the end of this month. The stuff is sooooooo good!!! And cheap. Just like the clothes. ::mental note:: must make sister take me shopping when she gets here. I asked my aunt today if she could teach me how to ride a motorcycle and she laughed at me =(. You guys know which one I mean.. the lil scooter things that they have all over Taiwan. THEY ROCK!!! I wanna know how to use one!! I think I could do it... just not in real traffic. The drivers here are really really really really scary. I'm not even exaggerating-- it's literally horrifying to drive places. Especially with my mom! You know those kinds of underground garages that you have to take really steep turns on the ramps? She goes at least 50 mph on those things.

Let's see, what else... I'm on a DSL modem right now but it's really really slow since the computer's a pentium 1 =P So basically it's going at the speed of my computer on AOL. That's really really sad. Hey, but at least I have a computer in my own room again =) Remember the icafe's from last year? Since we moved, I can't go to the old one. Plus, it closed =P Oh, and my mom is convinced that SARS emanates from them. She also won't let me go to movie theaters, which gets me pissed because they are basically the only form of entertainment I can get here. I was gonna go watch all the movies I missed that came out 4 months ago in America ~_^. Nah, Taiwan's actually pretty recent. Bruce Almighty is coming out this week, I think. That's only like a month late, right? So I can go see the Matrix: Reloaded in 2 weeks =P since I didn't go when it came out. This whole movie thing pisses me off. This is what happens-- a movie comes out in America while I am gone. By the time it comes out in Taiwan, I am back in America. But the movie isn't playing anymore in the US because it's been out so long. So, I miss the movie till it comes out on video. And life sucks =)

That was a pretty long entry, wasn't it? =P lol too bad because I have been gone for four days and ITS SO FUCKIN BORING HERE. If someone isn't online by 10 pm my time (9am for CSTers) I will eat you ALL when I get home. O=D

leaving...

Don't wanna =( Sad... Hectic... Tired... Upset... Depressed...

So, goodbye everyone =( I'll be back on July 16th in the early early morning. While I'm in Taiwan, sign online at obscenely late hours of the night with the sole purpose of talking to me... I mean, for your own benefit. Actually, I might be on around 9-10 pm depending on stuff. I'll miss you guys!! Yes, you too John. Even though you don't believe me ~_^.

PullYaPantsUp222 [5:38 PM]: bettina- when your on the plane
PullYaPantsUp222 [5:38 PM]: don't forget the coffee

Heh heh... if you didn't get that, don't blame me-- blame yourself. Oh, and go see Good Will Hunting =)

Okay, enough of this business! It's just too bad that I'm leaving, but one must get their foot in the door, and such. I'll miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssss youuuuuuuuuuuu =( Byyye!
