Today I saw NOTHING. Just joking... Today I saw, huge signs near the bus and MRT stops. As you know, there is a Flora Expo (a place that presents many flowers and thing built with them) here in Taipei. For people to get interested, the government or the dudes from Flora Expo put signs of the Expo's symbol and how to get there, and there are many signs on the public transport station or stops. So I couldn't help but to notice it...
Yesterday I felt, excited as the bell rang. I got a new wardrobe on Saturday and it was delivered yesterday. I waited for it to come and when the bell rang I ran to the door to get it. There were two men that were going to build it and boxes that seemed very heavy. The workers only finished after one hour, and it looked amazing.
Last week I learned a bit about the Balinese culture. What I found really interesting was something I saw in the Holy Water Temple. There was a huge dirty pool and on the front wall there were dragon heads sculptures. Out of their mouth, water was gushing out and the Balinese people who were inside the pool, washed their hair with the water and prayed. Then they would put money or flowers on the dragon head. "Very different," I thought!
Tomorrow I hope the water of the swimming pool wont be freezing... As tomorrow is Tuesday, I have swimming, which I really really HATE! And since I'm in the middle group (which I shouldn't be because I'm not good enough) it makes me extremely TIRED! And to top this monstrous cake, the water is COLD!!!
