Took part in Food Monopoly. Some students had a projects, they invited foreigners, everybody splitted into 3 teams, went to night market and threw this thing with numbers, which showed us what food to eat. And everything's for free!All of us, showing team number
A map, 5 times of throwing = 5 groups of food, numbers from 1 to 4 show what we were going to eat.
Throwing for the first time - aaaand... drink sugarcane juice. Not bad in small doses.
Oops, a guy from Germany had a fine and have to sing German anthem. I supported and sang a Russian one. Second throwing - dumplings, most famous food on this night market. My granny makes something looking like that with potato, so I feel a little bit sad.
While waiting for dumplings decide to eat something extra game. Something is stinky tofu. Pretty good. Btw, when I heard "stinky" before it seemed "sticky" for me, so I thought it's a soup.
The last (in the game, not for today) dish - mix of something weird under nasty sauce
By the way, this time person who threw (guy from Turkey) got a fine and had to make order in Chinese
Then we also ate traditional dessert - wheel pie, and ice with sweet thing. Sheer gastronomic pleasure. There is our team №1 - well-fed and contended (not won but it wasn't the purpose).
When I met German guy I told him "I know one German phrase - fick dich (fuck you in German)" and he said "I know some Russian as well" - "For example?" - "ГАЛУБОЙ ("gay" in slang)"
At 1 a.m. I wanted to buy cookies, went to supermarket and there are tables near it where people sit and drink. This time there were some guys I know (it seemed to me, then I understood that from 5 people I only saw 2 couple of times). They invited me to join and I sat with them until 5, it was cool.

Went to waterfalls again. I wanted to throw Chinese Lantern, because everyone already have done it and I'm not!
Choose 4-colored lantern: blue for success, red for health, pink for happiness, yellow for money.
Writing my wishes
Wrote on each side (there we have Cyrillic, Latin and traditional Chinese writing), took photos
Then we got our lantern fired and sent to the sky
Flying well - everything will come true
Waterfall turned out to be not the one we saw last time. Look at photo, I paid 80 NTD for taking it!
Kitties
Weather was terrible - all day it was rainig hardly. Everything you want to do is to drink tea-coffee. So, here am I, warming up with ginger tea

Countdown started. In a month I'm leaving amazing country Taiwan, about existance of which I didn't know a year ago. And when we meet again - nobody knows. 10 undone items in to-do list, 5 unfinished courses, Christmas, New Year, 31 day for everything. Let's go!
