My hobbies!!!

I guess I don't have many hobbies like others have. My hobbies is cooking delicious food for my family, singing along with my sisters, playing computer games, surfing the Internet, going shopping with friends and mom. When I was back in India, I like to cook delicious food for my family. I like inventing new food with my mom. I enjoyed inventing new food and cooking Thai, Indian, and Hakka food. That's what we normally eat at home. But, when I came to Taiwan there is no kitchen for me to cook and so I cannot cook for myself, instead I have to eat outside food which is not as healthy as home cooked food.

I like singing all types of song, be it Chinese, English gospel or pop or any songs that's good to my ears. I feel music can help me a lot, especially when I am off mood. I listen to music and I find while listening to music, I am in my own world. I like that kind of feelings. Playing computer games and browsing the Internet is what nowadays people do. I browse the net searching for latest songs and their lyrics. I like to browse my friend's pictures and read blogs of my friends. Shopping is girl's favorite. Girls just cannot live without shopping for hours. I find myself shopping less in Taiwan because I don't like the clothes here much. I like simple and comfortable clothes. Comfort is the most important thing I look for as far as clothes are concerned.

Dragon boat festival!!!

          Every year for Dragon boat festival, my granny would make zhung zi. Inside the zhung zi, we have rice, beans and marinated pork. We use leaves of one kind of plant to make zhung zi. I don't know how to make zhung zi because we have to make it ito diamond shape and it's not easy to make. My granny makes it every year and it is really tasty. This year not only I, but all the people at home will miss my granny's hand made zhung zi because she is sick and is in bed and could not move her body. So, this year my mom is making zhung zi for everyone at home. It will taste the same but it won't look the same like that made by my granny. On Wednesday I got to have a taste of Taiwan's zhung zi and I don't like it much because it is not that tasty and it doesn't contain beans. Those beans are available only in India and in some foreign country. I've heard that it’s available in Taipei but it is very costly compare to the price sold in India. I can eat nice and tasty zhung zi only when I am in India. I don't know how long I will be missing it, but I can control myself.

Yesterday's activity!!

      Yesterday I woke up quite early and then the first thing I did early in the morning is switch on my notebook and log in to my msn and yahoo. When I sign in, after few minutes I saw my sister online and so I chatted with her for a while and then talked to my dad and mom using skype. I am talking to my mom after a week or two and as for my dad; it's been months since I last talked to him. I feel quite good to talk to my mom and dad early in the morning.
    
             At 12 o'clock, I saw Samantha and Sara online, so I asked them if they would like to go and have their lunch with me or not and they said ok, and sothe  three of us went to our university's canteen to have lunch. After lunch, three of us just sat near the lunch table and chatted for a while. Then Samantha and I went to buy drinks and that time we saw five foreigners buying drinks too. Some of the boys were helping out to ask what they would like to buy and when the boys left, no one was there to help them, so I volunteered and talked to them for a while. All the five foreigners thanked me for helping them out. At times I feel it's really nice to help people when I can be of any help to them.
        
                Then we went back to our own room. The moment I entered the room, I switched on my notebook again to see which friend of mine is online and was online searching for information related to the reports I have to write. After looking at so many articles, I feel so sleepy and then I climbed up to my bed and took one of the books I borrowed from the library to read in my bed. After reading few pages, I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was again in front of my notebook. When its time for dinner, Samantha and I walked outside our university to have our dinner. After dinner, we came back to our room again and I am again in front of my notebook. This time I saw my aunt online and so I talked to her in msn and chatted with my friend and then I went to have my bath. After bath I sat down to watch a film called “BIG FISH.” One of my roommates lends me the cds to watch and so I watched the movie. It's quite a good movie and I like it. This is how I spend my day yesterday. Guess I am near my notebook all the time. This proves that I cannot live without my notebook. Hahahaha….

 

Going crazy!!!

          It's been a tiring week for me. Though we don't have much class, it's just that my bones ache so much these days. It aches so much that I can't help it and have to sleep early without completing my homework. It's really a week that I hate because on top of all those assignments and homework, my bones are aching badly. I don't know whether I should be happy or sad since I will be visiting Taipei next week during the Duan Wu festival. There are so many reports to submit next week and so many impossible things to do that I should make it possible. I find it really tough to make impossible things possible. Anyways, I will try my best. That's all I can say! I am indeed going crazy..

A class outing

       Last Friday, almost all the students in our class went to Jian Hu Shan. It's organized by one of our teachers. It's a half an hour journey from our university and we all went there by a bus rented by one of our teachers. In Jian Hu Shan, there are many exciting rides people can take. There are kids world too. Some rides are dangerous, but I and my friends have the courage to take those dangerous rides and we all enjoyed it, though its scary, we just screamed all the way. Hahaha…. Its my first time to visit such places in Taiwan and I really enjoyed it, especially when we are in a group, its lot more interesting. Hope to visit these places again!
