Wow
So I haven't actually updated in a while. I actually wrote a blog entry while my blog was down, but I don't have it on me anymore, so I guess that'll just be forever lost. . .
This weekend I went to the Three Rivers Art Festival. Was kind of cool. Food was a little expensive there, but there was some really fantastic art going on. I didn't actually watch any of the shows, but I did go and buy some art. There was a "master paper cutter" from Taiwan that did some really cool paper cutting that was relatively cheap. I think b/c I was Taiwanese, the guy felt especially generous to me (oh, and it was the last day of the festival too) and gave me a pretty large discount on the stuff he was selling. Was sort of funny b/c he kept whispering me in Chinese, "I'm treating you special; don't tell anybody that I'm giving you a discount or I'll have trouble with my business with everybody else." It kind of cracked me up. I guess sometimes it's nice to be Chinese. Heheh.
Also, the whole internship mess is over. Ended up not going, but I guess this works out better or whatever. The guy I would've worked for actually ended up contacting me and apologizing for the mess his manager created (his manager is an uber dick and irresponsible to boot). So I guess I will be here in Pittsburgh for the summer. But, I will go back to Taiwan so I guess this works out in the end. Disappointed, but I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles.
