"Drug Trafficking is Punishable by Death in ROC"

Well here I am in Taiwan waiting for my flight to Bangkok. There's a lot of warning signs in this airport (see the title of this post) but all of them have pictures of beautiful asain women on them. Doesn't seem very fitting. The first thing I noticed about Taiwan was that all the houses we flew over looked like they were made of legos; they were blocky and colorful and stacked up. It's also reaaaallly crowded here. I went to the bathroom to put in my contacts and there was no room to stand because all the ladiez were primping themselves so I just did it outside. Even though this place is packed I am definitely the only white person here. I get to creep on all the asain babies though. It's kind of an over load (but still awesome).

The flight over here wasn't too bad. Everyone was super nice..when I got to my seat it was taken by this small asian child and I told his mom it was my seat (my beautiful primo window seat) and she said (sort of in butchered english) that she wanted the kids together and could I take another seat. I said whatever and proceeded to the shittiest seat on the plane. It was in the middle right in front of the wall. Anyway, they were super grateful I guess so they kept talking to me (sort of..in a kind of butchered english) and smiling. Then the flight attendent let me know there was another unoccupied window seat up in the front. Hell yeah! When I sat down there everyone was smiling and seemed ridiculously happy. The lady next to me was cool. She was from the philipines. As far as the food on the flight goes, we had a choice between the american meal and the chinese meal for dinner (at 3 am) and breakfast. I got the chinese stuff both times. The dinner thing was just fish and rice. Pretty gross but only because it was airplane fish...we've all seen the movie Airplane! right? The breakfast was like...oatmeal..only it was rice and had peas in it? I dunno, didn't taste like much. The safety card on the airplane was pretty funny. Here's a pic: My fave is the asian baby in the bottom right.

Anyway, I haven't even started on my adventures yet, just thought I'd start blogging early since nobody seems to think I'm actually going to do it. I'll leave you with this awesome picture until next time. To infinity and beyond! (That's my new life motto).
