Hey guys!
Sorry again that I haven't blogged in a while. Right now, I'm in Taiwan. Leaving tomorrow, so I figured I would just tell you today. So I came to Taiwan about 3 weeks ago. It's burning over here! Spent a week with my mom's side of the family (they live in Taiwan, even cousins), and then spent some time with my dad's side of the family (grandparents live in Taiwan, cousins flew in from Iowa). My cousins names are Ellie (age 12), Henry (age 14) and Jack (age 16). With my dad's side, we went down to the southern side of Tawain. We went to Gaoshong and Kenting. At Gaoshong, we went to Eda, which is an amusement park with department store. It was fun. I went on a water ride and got soaked! But luckily, it was super hot and I dryed off. A couple days later, we rode a bus for 2 hours that took us to Kenting. I got carsick. I didn't throw up, but I kinda felt like it. Anyway, when we got there, it was gorgeous. Kenting is by the ocean, so there were a lot of water activities. I first when to the swimming pool with Ellie. It was awesome! There was even a diving board! The boys went body boarding. I heard that they were really good. The next day, I went body boarding with them. It was fun at first, but then I got tired and kept slipping off. I had a lot of fun though! When we came back, I spent another week with my mom's side of the family. We lived at my grandparent's apartment. My two cousins are Hubert (age 10) and Jessie (age 6 or 7). Since they live in Taiwain, they speak more Chinese, and I use their Chinese names more. Jessie actually chose her own English name. She loved the Jessie from Toy Story, so she chose that. Of course now she likes Elsa and Anna and Frozen, but she said that she is still Jessie. Anyway, I miss home, but this was an awesome trip. I actually come back almost every summer, so next year you might hear more!
Fun Fact: There is a really famous lighthouse at Kenting. I forgot what the name was, and I actually got to see it, so if you can find the name of the lighthouse, you'll get a shoutout.

PS: I wrote a poem about Taiwan:
A Taiwan Summer
The air is hot and sticky, humid and warm.
Cockroaches and mosquitoes are a swarm.
Mangoes and papayas, and other tropical fruits.
All good to eat, along with bamboo shoots.

Tyme For Tea
Hi guys!
Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. Summer is here and I was catching up on my relaxation time! So today my mom took me to this really cute tea time place called Tyme for Tea. It's just a little Victorian style tea place. It was fun! We ordered a little set and got a scone, some savory dishes, and some desserts. Of course, there was also tea. We got Peach Passion tea. It was kinda strong for me, so I put a lot of sugar and milk. The entire place was so old fashion/high end. The teacups were different designs, and the sugar bowl and milk cup thing (you know what I'm talking about) looked exactly like what you might see on TV (if you like watching those movies that take place in old England or something). It was a really great experience. There was a big bin full of hats next to a mirror that you could try on and be silly. I took some hats and laughed at how silly I looked and took pictures. I also took some pictures of the place and food. There are some below. Check it out!
Fun Fact: Tea from old England was actually influenced by the Chinese and Japanese.
Happy Tea Time!

Summer!!!
Hi guys!
First day of summer!!! School ended yesterday. I am so happy. I thought summer would never come! But here it is! Today I went to a barbeque and went to the library. I borrowed seven books, and I already finished one. I love reading.
I Wonder: What fun things will I do this summer?
Happy Summer!

Hey readers!
Do you see my "Tween Tips" on the left column there? Right now there is a quote that I made up. I'm hoping no one already took it. So if you see a quote very similiar or the same, please comment below to tell me because I don't want to take the credit if someone else already made it up. Thanks!
I Wonder: Did I make it up all by myself? (I am seriously hopinng so.)
Happy Making Quotes!

Good Bye, Laptop
Hi guys!
I'm kinda sad cuz I had to give back my laptop. It was actually the school's, so I had to turn it in today. Right now, I'm using a different laptop at home. I'll try to blog as often as I can, which might not be too hard, because I have this laptop. But it might not be as much as during the school year because me and my mom share this laptop.
I Wonder: How often will I get to blog? (A lot, I hope!)

Rockin' Jump
Hi guys!
Yesterday (Sunday) was Sunshine Rainbow Girl's birthday party. It was at that new trampoline place called Rockin' Jump. I had so much fun! There was a main trampoline area, a basketball court, a dodgeball court, and a foam pit. I didn't really play at the basketball court, only for a short period of time. And I only did the dodgeball when it was our private game. But I really played at the foam pit. It was so much fun! I kept trying to do a flip, but always ended up doing a belly flop instead. I think I did a flip once, but it wasn't even a full, proper flip. I still had a lot of fun. Awesome party!
I Wonder: Will I get to go to Rockin' Jump again soon? (I hope so!)

What I Did Yesterday
Hi guys!
Wow, I haven't posted in a while. I guess I was too busy. But yesterday was a pretty fun day. Here's what happened:
My school had an 8th grade graduation. I'm not in 8th grade, but I'm in band, and the band had to play for the graduation. So I had to go. But the good thing was that a ton of my other friends were also in band, and two of my other friends chose to go and sit in the audience. So when the graduation was finished, there was food and a photo booth with silly props. I took a ton of pictures with my friends. Then we all got food. Bacon Girl was one of the girls who chose to come, since her mom was already going. After I left the graduation, I ended up going shopping at a mall with Bacon Girl! We had so much fun, and we bought clothes from Forever 21. Then we went to Claire's to buy presents for Sunshine Girl's party! We also went to Aeropostale and Icing, but we didn't buy anything there.
It was a really good day yesterday. Well, today might be even better because today is Sunshine Girl's party! Can't wait!
I Wonder: What will the party be like?
Happy Shopping!
