So far September has been fun. The beginning of this month, Chris visited me. It was his second time here! whoo! I was really happy to see him and I had planned on taking him everywhere...but he got sick...not exactly what I had planned. Despite him being sick, I think he still had a good time. I really enjoyed spending my time with him. We got to go to my family's house in Hukou and eat a big dinner with all my aunts and uncles. My 2nd uncle was super happy. He got to drink with his drinking buddy, Chris! The two of them drank more than they ate! Well...I know that Chris drank a lot more then my uncle...but my uncle's a old guy! So Chris should be able to drink more! Hahahaha. Then we also went to a few of my favorite places to eat. We went to Din Tai Feng, a restaurant known for it's dumplings. Then we went to KGB, a New Zealand burger place (I mentioned a while ago in a different post). And then we went to this really fun restaurant called "the peoples restaurant" or that's what I think it translates to. It was really cool. The front door doesn't have any handles so you have to figure out how to get in. After you figure it out, then you go into a trendy atmosphere. It's like an underground basement-like setting. Then after you eat dinner....which was delicious...you move over to the sofa area to have your drinks. I'm glad Chris got better so that we could go. Then finally we went to "the Jurassic" (another one I mentioned before). We specifically went there for their crickets, but because of the typhoon that hit Taiwan, there weren't any available. Instead we drank a little bit...well I had a little bit ;-)

We didn't really do too much other than eating...hehe. We mostly stayed home. I have nothing to complain about though. It meant that I got to spend time with him, what else can I ask for.
