Belated update for day 6:
Today was good. I booked a flight to Taipei in March, so that will be really fun. Anastassia and I went to H&M in Kowloon Tong, and ended up discovering a random ice skating rink. And I found out that Twilight is still playing here. I might have to see it again lol.
We met more exchange students from Illinois, and we hung out with them last night. We went to the Avenue of the Stars, which has a light show on all of the buildings, but we were too late to watch it. Then we went and hung out at the beach on campus.
I'm not really that homesick anymore. I'm still ready for the semester to start because there's still no one on campus. I'm having fun though.
I've learned one thing in my dorm so far: I hate Cantonese pop music. It may be worse than country music. I haven't decided yet. But it is not legitimate music. It kind of sounds like video game theme music. Also, the native students here have very strange sleeping habits. They're almost nocturnal. They sleep in the afternoon, and they're really loud really late at night/early in the morning. They were seriously blaring Canto pop from around 1:30 am to 5:30am. It was insane.
We only get 2 English channels here, CNN and BBC. I'm not a huge fan of either. So now I'm just watching TV on surfthechannel.com. It has American Idol. And maybe I'll finally finish all of the seasons of the OC.
I'm still working on figuring out how to put pictures up on this blog. There are some on facebook. Here's a link to the album: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2167578&id=12818105 . Let me know if it doesn't work, and I'll try to fix it.
I hope everyone's having a great night! Keep in touch!

Hello
Noelle, you really should write about me more often.
Jeremy
Noelle I am so glad you had a better day! and that I was a totally better roommate that the Cantonese pop music individuals! so are dorms at tech quieter overall?
So two of my crabs changed their shells!!! and I think the third will soon... that is the crab-mail.
So does this mean that when you get back I can play country and you will be thankful for it? ;)
jeremy - i'm sorry, i'll try to do better.
mary - tech dorms are much quieter. but only between the hours of 1:30 and 5:30. and yay hermit crabs!
