Wanna See Some Pictures???

...yeah ya do!!

So I can't really figure out how to separate them from each other... But there are only four pictures... so It shouldn't be too hard to figure out which one I'm talking about.
This one is of my mom and myself (guess which one's which... no guess!!) We're standing in the middle of the big national plaza. In the background is the Chiang Kai Shek Memorial building. There were guards, tourists, and cute chinese school children! That building is also impressively tall, more so thann it looks in this picture.







In my last post I wrote about a place called Din Tai Fung--delicious dumplings. dumpling dumpling dumpling. This is a picture of people making the dumplings that I consumed so readily.

The next picture.. in my edit window its too the left of the text, but god knows where it will be when I publish this thing... is a picture of the guards at the Chiang Kai Shek Memorial. They're pretty intense right




Last is the picture of my family--I met all of these people moments before the picture was taken... with the exception of my mom. So in this picture, from the left, is my mom's cousin, Holly, my mom, my great aunt, and myself. My great aunt is somewhat amazing. She's about 90 years old, and is still... well, conscious. When I'm 90, I'll probably be hooked up to a computer the size of a small asteroid or something. She also loves to talk. To me. I have no idea what she's saying, because I don't speak Chinese. And she has no idea that I don't understand, because the poor woman can't hear a darn thing--shame! That being said, she is still the cutest old woman on the face of the Earth. No bias or anything. Oh, she also makes Chinese knots, and small sculptures out of paper.

Here's a picture of her rendition of Hello Kitty (and Hello Kitty's friend, not yet seen in stores):

Here's a picture of a Chinese tower that she made (it stands about 3 feet tall... about her height):








So that's all the pictures I have for you now. I think it's time I got something to eat...

Until my next post~!
