What's going on down there? 9.3


I guess the one thing that gets me in Asia is the number of dark alleys everywhere. They are dark and mysterious and I am fascinated with every one of them. I expect to see something happening like a fight or a drug deal that I can catch on camera but it never happens, but don't worry, when it does, you can catch it all on here...www.notoriousdav.blogspot.com

I feel I haven't got out as much lately to capture any political events on camera or just some scenery in Taiwan, though. In August, I had some pictures chosen for a website here, Taiwan Picture of the Day, but I don't think they were great. I was just submitting them for fun, to see what would happen. It was great to have them picked though!!

Well so far, the first week in the new semester has gone alright. This school's a bit different than some school's in Korea I worked at. Also, in Taiwan, they encourage the teachers to talk with the parents as much as possible. But it's the same when it comes to it being a 'business' first and then a school. Students here have to pay for a full semester instead of month to month. At the end of the day, it's not too tough of a job. I've had worse. I always think of that job I had in Gangnam on the weekends, 4 straight classes, 80 minutes each with a 5 minute break between classes. And the annoying bell! Stu knows what I'm talking about.
No bells here!
