This week we gave our midterm presentations. I practiced my presentation on the evolution of Chinese characters quite a bit, and I believe my presentation displayed that. Although it was certainly a big assignment, there is still lots of class time left, as well as the oral exam in a few weeks. On sunday night I visited the XiMen district in Taipei and its bright night market. It was certainly more clothing focused rather than food like most others but I still had a great meal and a great time walking around a part of Taipei I had not been to before. Everywhere you look there’s something new-that seems to be the theme of Taipei and Taiwan in general.
