I ate a bagel for breakfast at the hotel place and rode the green line and a bus to Joy Enterprises. This is by far my favorite business so far. They teach kids to speak english and I really think I could live in Taiwan and work for them. We got to play little kid games to see some of the ways they teach. When we left we took a train back to Taipei Main Station and ate McDonalds and changed clothes quicker than I've ever done in my life. We took some more trains to the university and did our case study with the Taiwanese students. I only had one Taiwan student in my group and he was extremely intelligent. Some professional Chinese Calligraphists came and let us try to write some things. I got one of the guys to write Emerson for me on a pretty piece of paper for my sister. We took the train to Taipei 101, the tallest building in the world. I ate some Subway in the basement and then we rode the fastest elevator in the world to the 89th floor and walked up some more floors to the outdoor observatory, probably one of the coolest things i've seen. You could see everything in the huge city, but it was extrememly windy out there. We stopped at coldstone and then took a cab home. Tonight I had to shower in jakes room because our bathroom is leaking from above and smells like poop. Then I went to bed.
