Wonderful Presentation...

Sorry for being away for a long time. I was too busy with mid-term exam or just my laziness... Anyway, the Christmas songs remind me the 2010 is going to be finished soon. And I'd never forget the time we worked together in the past four months to complete a wonderful project related to beautiful places in Taiwan, China and Japan.

To be honest, I was very amazed by all of your performance; I could see all your efforts and creativity from the final presentation. When I browsed these pictures, I could still remember some hurdles we have overcome. Sweet or sour, they'll be the most unforgettable memory in my life.

I uploaded some pictures of presentation for sharing. Right now, it's time to move onto the second project work to introduce Eastern Culture to the rest of the world. I'm looking forward to seeing another surprise from my super brilliant students again.

Yangmingshan video

This video is a brief introduction about Chingtienkang.

The weather wasn't friendly enough, so it's obvious that it was foggy and freezing at that time.

However, it's still a nice place to visit. You'll be excited after visit Yangmingshan National Park.

But, just check our vedio first~

Let's go to Gongguan Night Market~!!!

Let's go to the Gongguan Night Market~~!!


















First, take MRT to Gongguan station


Then after you come out from the station, you will see this huge blue building


It is a market and also a landmark of Gongguan Night Market.

In if-then form we can said

If a place is a night market, then there must have many delicious food.

So! At this point, let's eat first!

~~~ station 1~~~

There is a theater, you can ask anyone on the street to find it.

However, after you see the theater, there is a little street next to it.

In the little street, you can see this ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓

See these people!

They line up for the black pudding!

Turst me, the line will be longer and longer when the sky is get darker

It is not really expensive, only $25

After the snack time is like you recharge your battery

Use those energy, let's go shopping!!

~~~ Station 2 ~~~

Guess what is Ally looking for~!!!

If you guess right you can get not thing~ XDDD

Well, this is the answer.

The gifts for her friends~!!!

Ally~~(smiling) can i get one on my birthday~~~ O w O

(OK that is just a joke, don't get seriously)

try to guess what did she buy this time.

this time she brought for herself.

Do you find something cute in this picture?

YES~!! The Spongebob!!!!!

~~~ Station 3 ~~~

Walk on the street...
It is so hard to let me tell you what is our next station
I, Anita, almost full
and Ally brought everything she need

So um.... yes ...

actually we... we didn't do anything

we just walk on the street

and other reason that we didn't do anything is that after the sunset, there was so much people in the night market!!!

This store sell Douhua.
I really like this also I had purpose to eat this

but.....

Us you see... the store is full of people = =

we even cant find a seat
so we give up

we decide to have a beverage after eatting and shopping

that is the greatest drink in this market

you better drink it before you leave

when we walk toward the shop
this shop catch our sight
See!! another line of people
but .... we didn't spend time on this line (or you can say shop)
and also the next line(shop)

this was not the photo of the crowd!!

this people were waiting for the drink, like us

this was not just a line... i think this is a ....a pyramid of people !!!

well we gave up and go to next station

~~~ Station 4 ~~~

Yes

we went to the book store

why?

it is because we felt hot after we walked, so our goal become to find a place where has air conditioner

I believe that many girl will like this book store because these teddy bears.

(I think this is the best picture so far)

After we leave the book store, we tried to find another place with air conditioner

A book store is not that interest that we can spend many time on it.

And lucky, there is a lot of shops.

We went in to a cloth shop.

Before leave this night market

we went to one more place

you know, shopping is not really a exercise after eatting

so ....

let's play the basket ball!!

BTW I am so happy that i show up in the photo again XD

Guess how many point i got

the answer is ....

is ......

Surprise?? Fell nonsense?

yes you are right, this is not what i got....

and that is the real point i got

I even can not play the second round TT^TT

Well... is there anyone can teach me basketball?? O W O

~~~ Station 5 ~~~

Let's take MRT to next place --- Ximending

i will post it as fast as possible

see you !! bye !!

Update after a long, long time

Few weeks before, we had hand out to try to make a film.
Then we got fail on it, the shop owner want us leave her store like we are rats
That made us felt really hurt, at least for me TT^TT
(by the way, the shop owner is a old, ugly, selfish and very unhappy woman!)


During these few week i almost give up
i was not focus on it, i was even not open this blog
that is why i didn't update it at all
We had plan to change way we do this project, or the title of our project
however it was a mess!! a HUGE mess!!


and then after few weeks, now we overcome it.
we went out for pictures last weekend
but also we had fix our plan
our plan was to interview the shop owner and make a film like we saw on the TV
but that is too hard for us
so now we will post some photos and paragraph about where we have been
like some writer on the internet

but we will not post the places on the same paragraph
because we weren't went to the same place together
we have different places and every member in group only have to take at least 1 place


except these, i think our project title have to change
because the thing we did, the pictures, are totally don't have anything link with night markets
therefore we have to change the title, i just not sure what is our new title.



to my partners
vincent and judy i think you may have to update your picture because i do not have your picture.
and to everyone, what is our new title???????????

Get ready to go!

Although most students are experienced in project work, it's still a new experience to work on a culture-based theme with a group of new partners. Moreover, most of them are excited to present their work to the audience in the states.

After a 2-week discussion, they decided to introduce some nice places in Taiwan and mainland China; such as night markets in Taipei, Shang hai Expo, Disneyland in Hong Kong, Yang Ming Mountain in Taipei and one of the most scenic spots- Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan. In the following 3~ 4 weeks, they are going to film these places and produce pamphlets as a notable record at the end of the project. Let's look forward to seeing their terrific job!

Here are some theme-webs from group discussion.

Taiwan will touch your heart

Discover the beauty of Formosa with pop singers from Taiwan. Check out the following links, you'll be amazed by this small island.

The most popular boys team in Asia "Fahrenheit". They use their fame and voice to promote tourism to Japanese.
