  blogs are cheaper than therapists. allright - while i was going to work today, two short blocks down, and three small buildings right - anyways, was waiting from the corner of my apartment building for the walk light to turn green, and across from me was this police car, waiting to cross the street down the street where my apartment is located.
my light turns green, so he goes to, except to take a u - turn. while i was waiting those 34 seconds for it to turn green - noticed - while listening to my shakira cd - that the cop was staring right at me - but whatever, as a foreigner living in taiwan - you get used to than - especially if you are ethnically filipino which i am - but more of a cali valley girl if you ask me - anyways i walk, he does his u-turn - which is kinda normal because the driving here is nuts - i'm walking not noticing, and he grabs my shoulder and barks "arc!
" my alien resident card. takes a look at it, and turning to the cop next to him, says "meigwo, meigwo" american american. arggg! and more whoa - was way to startled to do anything - wanted to cry - especially since i'm homesick right about now, being six months and 2 days in taiwan.
