Guess who f-ed up her knee today by not noticing a slight step down... Have I mentioned the hilarious tale of how I broke my knee about two weeks into my freshman year of college (a college 500 miles from my home)? Ever since then my knee's been weird (like how I can't wear heels...), so way to go me.
On the other hand, at least I got some amazing pictures and cultural activity out of it!
The famous Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. Built, obviously, for the controversial former KMT President of Taiwan. Despite doing by the MRT station every day, this is the first time we actually visited. It's HUGELY impressive.
A view of the "Democracy Boulevard", and the National Concert Hall, and National Theater. Both are amazing buildings.
I fully intend on going back. It's free, interesting (the hall itself has special exhibits. The one we saw was about Chinese calligraphy), and the surrounding parks are AMAZING. They have ponds. With the largest most monster Koi I've ever seen in my life. Seriously, these things looked like small tuna. It was insane. (Random aside, but WTF KOI?! They can live for CENTURIES?!)
I promise one day I will get back to comments. It's been tough because I'm usually VERY busy. I have regular class every day, plus 6 hours of culture class a week, plus commute, cultural activities, homework, studying, ETC... It's all I can do to get home and crash. I don't even really watch stuff anymore because that would require energy I don't currently possess. It's honestly a nice change of pace, though detrimental to my rich online life :D I still read everyone's comments and posts though!
