The Daily Chao: Farewell, Kaohsiung, Farewell!
http://dailychao.blogspot.com/2009/06/farewell-kaohsiung-farewell.html
Wednesday, July 1, 2009. Farewell, Kaohsiung, Farewell! So long, so long and thanks for all the fish! I'm blogging from a free internet terminal at the Taoyuan International Airport, conveniently located next to the HELLO KITTY DEPARTURE GATE. For the next two weeks, I'll be in Kuala Lumpur for the Southeast Asian adventure of my dreams- beaching it in Malaysia and seeing Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Don't expect any updates until my return to Taiwan on July 14. July 2, 2009 at 7:55 AM. See you in DC! It's a ...

The Daily Chao: January 2009
http://dailychao.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 13, 2009. One of the best things about living abroad is that every meal is an adventure. I was in Taipei over the weekend with some friends, and we got a dessert called Yu4 Yuan2, which are sticky Taro balls. The problem with Asian desserts is that it's hard to convey how delicious everything is. Everything comes in sticky ball form, and somehow the name Taro balls just doesn't come out right. Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Then she laughed, got on the next bus, and rode away. The list of p...

The Daily Chao: If I could Turn Back Time...
http://dailychao.blogspot.com/2009/09/if-i-could-turn-back-time.html
Sunday, September 6, 2009. If I could Turn Back Time. I have an adventurous friend who always tries to get me to go along on his crazy schemes, like the backpacking trip through Tibet he planned in 06. I planned to go to North Korea with him this summer to see the Mass Games. A propagandic display of large-group, synchronized gymnastics, but had to alter my summer plans when I got into grad school. And I missed out on this:. JW: we're ALIVE[9:09:36 AM]. Me: are you back from NK? Me: how was it? I read, I...

The Adventures of Fei Kaidi: Bonus language post!
http://feikaidi.blogspot.com/2008/07/bonus-language-post.html
A few people have asked me about the language stuff in my first post. So here's a quick how-to, for all of you who care to know:. If the Chinese characters are just showing up as question marks. If you're using Windows XP, go to the Control Panel (classic view preferable), and go to "Regional and Language Options." Go to the "Languages" tab, and check the box next to "Install files for East Asian languages." If you do this and it still doesn't show up, tell me! There might be another step involved. July ...

The Daily Chao: April 2009
http://dailychao.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 20, 2009. Excerpt from James Fallows' blog on The Atlantic Monthly Website. For as annoyed as foreigners may get with America and Americans, there. Have been two saving graces in the world's opinions of our country. One has been. Its permeability. Anywhere you go, someone has an uncle or cousin in America. The other, less openly stated, has been a belief that at some point there. Are rules in America. Long periods may pass when the rules are ignored. Big boys. I stayed for the whole thing.

The Daily Chao: The Discard Pile
http://dailychao.blogspot.com/2009/06/discard-pile.html
Thursday, June 25, 2009. Packing takes me an eternity longer than it should because I aspire to be utilitarian, organized, and free of overweight luggage charges, but at heart I'm just a big pack rat. There are several stages between my "Suitcase" pile and my "Discard" pile corresponding to the amount of affection I have fore each possession. Here are 2 items that won't make the cut but I hope to remember for a very long time:. 1 Sexy Lacy Panties from 7-11. You can wear it as a scarf! The New York Times.

The Adventures of Fei Kaidi: Kościuszko Mound
http://feikaidi.blogspot.com/2009/09/kosciuszko-mound.html
At the suburban edge of Krakow and walking distance from Jonathan's dorm, there is a former royal hunting grounds that has been turned into a park. Within the park are several memorial mounds (not burial mounds); last weekend (not this past weekend), we went on a walk through the park and ended up at Kościuszko Mound. Tadeusz (Thaddeus) Kościuszko. Anyway, this was yet another beautiful day in Krakow, so I took a lot of pictures. Enjoy! The path through the park:. From the base of the mound:. Wiener Trip...

The Adventures of Fei Kaidi: June 2009
http://feikaidi.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
It's currently Saturday-turning-Sunday. I'm leaving Kaohsiung early Wednesday. I lose my internet sometime between now and then. I know I have many unblogged stories. Those things that I said I'd blog about back in September, well, I still remember them. And the month of July, when I'll be sitting on my couch waiting for my employed friends to get off work, will be a perfect time to write those blog entries. Goodbye and thanks, Fulbright. Taiwan, you've truly touched my heart. Married to tell us oh!
