Oh Hey, Taipei!

It’s been ages since my last update, so I’ll give you a superquick runthrough of what I’ve been up to. In the past month, I:
- crammed for my final projects and exams.
- got featured on Smashing Magazine’s May wallpaper showcase.
- finished my junior year of university.
- got an apartment in NY with two friends for the summer.
- flew back home to Shanghai.
- went to the Shanghai 2010 World Expo.
- went to Taiwan last weekend.
The last few weeks of school are always horrendous, because there’s one thing piling on top of another, and if you’re absolute pants at time management like I am, you end up pulling all-nighters and putting off tasks such as … um, updating this blog. But no matter! I mean, I rant about academia enough in real life to the point of annoyance, so let’s talk about something fun. Like the my Taiwan trip last weekend!
My mom and I were in Taipei for three days, where we visited a couple museums and temples, like the Chiang Kai-Shek and the Sun Yat-sen memorials. In a way, it was like revisiting my China Civ history class again. I mean, come on — in the gift shop, they were selling plastic dolls of a baby Chiang Kai-Shek in a diaper.
