Gambling report: Berti, sweet woman that she is, gave me $100 to gamble with. First we had a fabulous buffet lunch, which gave me the opportunity to eat turkey, stuffing, and gravy, having missed that at Thanksgiving, then we headed to the slots. I had my typical bad luck until I planted myself next to Berti, and then I won $150, which I immediately cashed out. As we were leaving the place, I tried a bit more, and I won another bit of change. I left with a total of $169, which is cool, since my normal pattern is leaving minus $200!
Berti, Ms. Magic herself, won over $600 in less than two hours. It's uncanny the way she'll stop and say, "I like this machine." Plunks in a couple dollars and wins $150 or $200. Weird.
Anyway, heading to the airport this evening, home again in Taiwan Friday a.m.!

Welcome to my world, where I ramble on about my life in Taiwan and my love for Wu Bai & China Blue, and voice my many complaints. Once my life as a university student begins in September 2008, expect more complaints (assuming I have time to complain!).
Who is 500CBFan?
- 500CBFan
- Taipei County, Danshui Town, Taiwan
- Um, not much to say, Caucasian from California who moved to Taiwan in March 2005 to study Mandarin and attend every Wu Bai & China Blue concert possible. September 2008 will see me entering the Chinese department at Tamkang University for a grueling four years of study (my life will be hell, I know it).
