Weather: Sunny then Rainy then Sunny & Humid then Sunny
Places visited: 正心中学 • Places our buddies brought us to--> 台中!! :D
Today we attended some lessons with our buddies from 正心. While I was attending their 国文 lessons, I learnt many new things and also realized their standard of knowledge on Chinese (culture) as the students themselves made many references with many other Chinese poems. Although our English may be better, their Chinese is definitely better than ours. I also found out from the students that the school specially prepared a cooking lesson for us (they don't usually have a cooking class) and I felt their efforts in making us feel welcomed and I am really thankful.
We also spent some time with our buddies and their family where they themselves organized a short "field trip" in Taiwan. I went to 台中 with my buddy, her mother, my classmates and their buddies and their buddy's father and had A LOT of fun! Although the "field trip" did not really go as planned because it started raining half way through, it was still EXTREMELY FUN because we got to spend a lot of time with our buddies! <3 I am also really really grateful to their parents who were very warm and welcoming to us and kept offering to pay for us even though we kept saying they shouldn't.
In conclusion, I found out something that I can learn from the students at 正心. I also had a wonderful time and made some new friends with great memories. I can't believe the strong bond we built in just three days and I can't bear to leave them now. I miss our buddies already and will definitely keep in touch with them!
I had a lot of fun cooking with the 正心 students:D
Not to mention their incredibly generous parents too!
