(ICLP)"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Hi guys! I can&#8217;t believe I only have a week and a half left of this amazing opportunity. So much has happened in the past week, so let&#8217;s get started!<\/p>\n<p>Last Tuesday to Friday I was preparing for my final oral exam, something that made me quite nervous. However, my oral time was really early in the morning on Friday, so after that, I was done! I think in the oral, my favorite subject to talk about was topics related to the Business Class that I am taking. Considering this is my first &#8220;business class&#8221; in general, I really feel like I learn new things in the class everyday.<\/p>\n<p>Then over the weekend, I did various things to celebrate. I got to experience Taipei&#8217;s night life for the first time, painted my nails, and really got to enjoy doing things that made me happy. Oh! Also I went to Taipei 101. I had only previously seen the outside, so actually going inside was really cool. (and because I&#8217;m part of NTU, I get a student discount) I went at sunset, so the view of Taipei was extremely beautiful. The elevator going up was also really cool as well. It&#8217;s just amazing how science and architecture has gone this far. (I&#8217;m still not going to forgive my friend who was jumping in the elevator while we were 89 floors up however&#8230; you know who you are&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>Then this Monday &#8211; Wednesday, ICLP held their Final Written Exams! I think I did okay, but I&#8217;m not too sure. I don&#8217;t want to be too overconfident! I&#8217;m hoping to take my last\u00a0<strong>10\u00a0<\/strong>days smoothly. As I would say in Chinese, \u8f15\u8f15\u9b06\u9b06\u7684\u4eab\u53d7!<\/p>\n<p>Okay, last thing before I end this. I forgot to mention that I&#8217;ve been only using traditional characters in class so I can practice reading traditional characters. They do have a history of over 3000+ years! However, I can only write in Simplified. Should I be concerned? If anyone has advice, please reach out to me!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Well, here&#8217;s to 10 days left. Bye!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~ Heidi F<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi guys! I can&#8217;t believe I only have a week and a half left of this amazing opportunity.
