Okay, I lied. Going through my photos taken these semester, I found out that I took a lot of photos. And I don't think it can fit into one post, cos I want to tell stories too and I want to post regularly (because Finals is stressing me out). So this will be the first of the series.
I don't have the energy and capable laptop to edit my photos, so these are all unedited. Unlike on Insta, where I always Vsco my photos, so feel free to comment on my non-existent skills.
*Note: I'll include a song or an album below so you can scroll down and press play then scroll back up again to read, if you want.
SPRING
I was honestly very excited for Spring. When I landed in Taipei, I was instantly greeted by cool weather. This must be what Spring feels like! And sure enough, when I got back to campus, the trees outside my dorms were in full bloom and I felt that anything was possible.
But of course, the funny thing about Spring in Tainan is that the temperature is not stable, some days I will need to wear layers to class and some days just shorts will do. I have to literally wake up and walk outside in my jammies to decide what to put on for class today.
I really enjoyed photographing my surroundings during that period. Flowers everywhere made me so happy.
Me being the kind and loving animal lover that I am, decided it was not okay to share food with a rodent. So I stood up suddenly and walked quickly away from the hungry animal, expecting the squirrel to freeze and escape, but what I did not expect was it took tentative steps towards me. I took one step backwards it took one step forward. I took another step backwards it took another forward. We were stuck in a never ending one-way cha-cha.
I didn't know what else I could do, besides letting out a war cry and shoving half of the sandwich into my mouth all in one go. And then with my mouth full, I taunted the squirrel: "See? All finished! Leave me alone!"
I realize I might have some issues. But wild animals are scary okay?
Then I proceeded to fetch my camera and you can see it is trying to figure out how to unlock my phone. Their tails are really bushy tho, I'm quite amazed.
Back when the semester just started, I had the time to cycle around, photographing the beauty of my campus and Tainan (and take unselfie-like selfies).
I love how slow the afternoons are here in Tainan. You can see old people just chilling everywhere and it makes your day not as suffocating. Also the doggies. They roam free here, without leashes and they're so friendly. It makes me happy.
SINGING FRIENDS
Now the photos below are of my friends in GuitarClub. They're make me laugh and teach me guitar and in turn I take nice photos of them and say nice things about them online.
That's Xuncheng, we tell each other our feelings. It sounds really gross but I guess that's what friends do.
That's Jefferson, we teamed up during the start of the semester for a performance and he's really adorable! He is also vegetarian and we friendly-tease him about it all the time. I wouldn't mind teaming up with him again because he can fill in the empty holes where my guitar skills are.
And this is my favourite weirdo, Linus. She is so weird. But she is also one of my best friends. I even made an Instagram post about her. So that means our friendship is deep and meaningful. And I love her socks. She always has nice socks.
So I took this photo while they were practicing for the Start-Of-Semester-Presentation. I really like it, although I think the proportion of the photo is slightly weird, her hand blocking half her face and too much emptiness behind. But I still like it. She doesn't really laugh like this, not because she has some traumatic childhood experience or anything, but because she has so many sides of her and this is one of my favourites.
There are more, I don't know when they'll be up, but I'm feeling like I should commit to my series (I even gave it a name that I could continue), cos it's fun.
And I am still unsure if I should post a link to my blog on Faebook. There are many weird people on Facebook. What if people laugh at my blog? Or laugh at my pictures? Or laugh at how they can't understand my blog?
Okay, that was an unnecessary burn.
I'll stop now before I insult any more people.
