Sep 11- 12

This weekend was marvelous. On Saturday I went shopping with my Taiwanese friends Otis and Sophie and had lunch at Sophie's place. She lives in a CROUS residence near Olympia metro station, a nice and bright 20m2 room equipped with a kitchen and a bathroom. We visited China town after a sumptuous spaghetti lunch. To my surprise, the food in China town is not cheap as I imagined, my favorite korean instant noodle cost 20 cent more here. Maybe it's have become a tourist spot. But stil it is interesting to see all these Chinese culture in Paris, which somehow lessen my homesickness. On Sunday morning I went to Hillsong Paris with Chanel, my Taiwanese friend from NYU. I was lucky to get a free hillsong Tshirt when the pastor asking if anyone would like to have it. Even with my hand raising immediate after that request I still didn't catch it, but the young lady behind me kindly gave it to me, which made me so grateful. The day was closed by a dinner gathering, organized by my French classmate Connie at her dormroom in ENS Cachan, near RER B Bagneux, along with three other Taiwanese students. After two weeks in Paris, smilingly she said, my cooking skill improved rapidly. Indeed, the boeuf bouillon du vin and the boeuf bouillon with potato were all really delicious. Taking her example, I should learn to cook from now on.
