I've been too lazy to update but it seems like all my friends haven't been updating their xanga either, hahaha. Anyways, here goes.

Class - So far only had quizzes (they don't really count; just need to accumulate enough points in order to take the final without taking an intergrative). First anatomy and histology exams are coming up, though, right before Christmas break.

Break - The break is less than two weeks long. But the Norwegians went to the professors and were able to move some classes around so we'd have an extra week off. The downside of this is that we'll have a hell of a week right before break, with two biophysics quizzes, an anatomy exam and a medical chemistry quiz packed together. And the week before that, a biophysics quiz and an histology exam.

Friends - 99% of them live in the Taiwanese dorm. I'm too lazy to visit them. Don't want to move there, either, because I really like my room and I love that I don't have to lock the bathroom door when I'm using the toilet or taking a shower.

Entertainment - Most of the time I hang out with my computer. I read mangas online, watch movies and tv series. I am bored to the point that I'm hooked to all those series that I've grown sick of when I'm in the states. I'd go on the Taiwanese students' FTP multiple times everyday just to see if new episodes are uploaded. This is truly sad. I miss my movie dates and shopping trips with my college roommates, and especially the bedroom sessions we'd have. And when I'm not in front of the computer screen or reminiscing the good old days of college, I read. I've recently finished rereading the Lord of the Rings but have no more books to lay my hands on. Bookstores here don't carry much English books. I think I'll make a book list and have my sister bring them back for me during winter break.

Others - I've been cooking fairly often and I've improved a lot. 
              I miss having my desktop with me. I'm thinking of bringing it over.
