I still remember I was asked y I chose to come Taiwan, and I replied I want to know how different is the Chinese culture there and the Chinese culture in Malaysia, and I've never been to this part of the world... So here am I, exploring the whole new world, discovering life...
My task was to teach English in 2 primary schools in a remote area. Gosh, the mosquitoes in Taiwan is real scary, especially in d village places where I service. Got bitten till whole legs swollen and full of red patches, was so scared and wanted to cry each time I looked at my legs, afraid that there'll b scars left. But when my body started to have some immune to the bites, I'm leaving Taiwan already.... should I be happy or sad???
I feel great to see my students improving each day. Their attitude towards English really changed, from not interested or even reluctant to try, to loving to come to class and even asked for extra classes. Although I cant teach much in this short period, I did tried my best to teach them some songs, told them stories, explained some Malaysia culture and taught them some values and stories of life... Leaving the kids is really hard... They hugged me in turns, kissed me, gave me lots of gifts, drawings, letters, and told me they'll miss me, asking me to go back visit them, and some even asked me not to go, and wana follow me back in my suitcase. I cant control my tears when I see them crying and looking at me with such sad but loving faces...
Besides teaching, I've got to explore Taiwan with other EPs from Malaysia and Canda, yah, and also some Taiwanese sometimes lar. We've been to many places, and never fail to go for trips every weekends... Even the Taiwanese are shocked that we can be so energetic and went to places that even some of them had not been to. Haha, we are a bunch of curious and fun-loving EPs~~~ no matter how tired, we'll still go around... Together, we left our footprints in Taiwan, and you guys do left ur footprints in my heart too. Love u guys so much.... We've changed form strangers, to acquaintance, to close friends... We'd laughed and cried together, did funny and crazy things, tried lots of Taiwan food, walked around till our back aches, shoulders pain, and legs tired, took buses and trains... lots n lots of memories I have which u guys left... Hugs~~~ I'm really happy to meet true friends here... I have many words to say to each of u, perhaps wil send u guys email,haha... *privacy mar*
