random pictures....

So at last I'm actually posting some pictures from random happenings since I've been in Taipei.

















Missy Elliot concert....smiling BEFORE the boss on stage incident.












Kathleen, Julia and myself at the Brass Monkey, a big local expat bar.















In front of the moon and Taipei 101 on the moon festival.













Spending Double Ten Day (October?!!)at the beach and teaching Louise to do cartwheels (without actually demonstrating a single one)!




















Ladies night out on the town and at KTV- the ultrapopular Karaoke phenomenon where you get your very own 5 star hotel -like room to sing off-key privately, in. And me in the middle of giving a song dedication a la Hedwig style.



I taught the kids in my English and the Arts class about Philly's Love park with the sculpture and made a big deal about how important it is to the city of Brotherly Love.... Two days later I was walking outside of 101 and what do I see....??

















Jamie, a friend from my year at school in NYC, stopped in Taipei for a day layover on his way home from working in Thailand. It was incredible to see a familiar face! I was determined to make the most of his short trip so we managed to squeeze drinks, a 1am Chaing Kai-shek memorial visit, dancing until at least 6am and fantastic breakfast into a little over 12 hours. I can't tell you how much it made me long for some more visitors!
