The Sickness
Hmm...I've been in a rotten mood all week long. I've been thinking pretty much incessantly about friends and family from home, and I've been spending quite a bit of time alone. I think the homesickness has struck.
I'd like to get out more, but my feet are cramped from all the walking. I've been massaging the hell out of them, but I still wake up with sore feet. I think I need better shoes, but my size is a little hard to come by in the women's section. I think I'll have to crack soon and buy a pair of men's shoes, which isn't such a big deal really, it just brings some odd looks from the Taiwanese.
I could spend more time with the roommates, but they have scooters and are having the fun scoooter adventures. They keep talking about how they feel the city has opened up to them and there are so many places to explore...I'm so jealous! :) I haven't been able to score one yet, but I did get word about one for free. Sadly, by the time my friends got me the number, it had been promised to someone else. If they pass on it though, the scooter is mine! Keep your fingers crossed. It needs some work, but it should be pretty reliable. I'll find out either way on Sunday. Until then I'll keep getting rides to work on Kristy's little 50cc scooter.
I'm still having a really good time, I just miss the comfort of knowing where things are, how to get there, and how to communicate effectively in order to get what I came for. Until that starts to come together, I've been focusing on making the apartment a little more comfortable. I'm looking for a frame store for the art I bought at the jade market this weekend, I got word about where one is, but I need a ride there and that seems a little bit harder to get.
Maybe this weekend I can make my way to the science museum I've heard so much about. I think I figured out which bus will get me over there. I'm sure it'll pass, I'm just a little down lately. I think a little KTV should clear this whole thing up! Nothing like the unbridled joy that accompanies cheesy karaoke hits!
