It's mid-autumn harvest festival over here in East Asia. If you're reading Wilson's page too, you have learned all about mooncakes. Here, I've gotten much more than my fair share of songpyon, which are these Korean rice cake goodies with a kind of bean paste-y kind of thing in them. I have also received a ridiculous amount of fruit. I think I could make some money opening up a fruit stand off my front stoop. I have an entire refrigerator shelf full of grapes, I swear. The other shelves have those big fat Asian pears and apples. The grapes here are different too - they taste and smell exactly like purple grape juice, the kind that comes in juice boxes. They're so good, I might turn purple if I finish them all.
Heading to Taipei in a few hours. Trying to stay up because I'm afraid that if I fall asleep, I'll oversleep since I've gotta be at the airport shuttle no later than 6am. But I have yet to pack, so I think I'll be okay. I have also failed to figure out how to work my washing machine over here, so it's just like college - packing up the dirty laundry to bring home. Some bad army TV (read: lots of Access Hollywood for some reason) is making sure I stay up. Hopefully I'm getting my digital camera too, woohoo! Pictures finally...
