So, a few days ago my host mom told me not to flush my floss along with my tissues down the toilet because she's scared it will stop it up. Don't exactly understand that logic, but I went with it and stopped. This morning, almost out the door on my way to school, she gets up and stops me. She told me she heard me flush the toilet after I brushed my teeth this morning. This is creepy already because I thought she was sleeping. She then proceeded to ask if I put my floss in there. I explained that I hadn't and that I threw it in my trash bin in my room. She made me show her to be sure even when I explained I flushed it because I used a tissue to blow my nose.. Holy hell, I'm in a mad house. I don't even really know how to comment on this event. She's simply starting to get on my nerves in how she doesn't drop anything and sometimes she just drones on and on. Oh, well. I'll put up with it and be a sweetie until I switch families. ^^

Another discovery of a not-so-nice person: my homeroom teacher. Oh, it's awful. I'm glad I don't have to see her that much. The stress she puts these kids through is amazing and the way she talks to them I easily concluded she would either get a stern talking to or would simply be fired were she a teacher in the states. She told them they were selfish, shouted out who had the worst lianluobu to the whole class, wrote down all of their english mistakes on the board and crossed them out screaming "Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!".. I mean, I thought this only happened in the movies. It's not always like this in Taiwan either, all of the students dislike her and she's the meanest in their opinion of all their teachers. It's just more put up with (if not encouraged) here for a teacher to act like a kid-soul-sucking monster. There are kids in my class with grey hairs.. I mean grey hairs. Stressed out much?

Speaking of stress, one thing I really don't feel I've stressed enough is the amount of cute boys in Taiwan. One of my favourite parts of the day is after school when I take the bus to Muzha MRT station and see the boys from Muzha Vocational School. The school is basically all boys and so many of them are cute. So many. Throw in all of the hugging and groping these boys partake in here in Taiwan, and I'm the happiest little girl in the world. :D

These last few days have been fun. Since Sunday when I did basically nothing, I've been going out nonstop. Monday I went to Ximen with some friends and saw Eat, Pray, Love. Tuesday it was Derrick's bday so we had a birthday bash for him. Then today I went to a night market with the Frenchies. My goal is to only be home tomorrow this week. I know, I shouldn't be avoiding my family but this week I find I just really don't wanna be home. When I'm home I do nothing. My host mom plays solitaire on the computer, host dad watches sports, and I go on the internet. Boring. Only thing good about it is how good of a cook my host mom is.

Tomorrow should be fun despite my lack of plans. I've got Chinese class, then friends, then drawing class at school with some fun people. Until next time. :D
