Fear Of The Dark

today i spend the first few hours of my new sem really studying
supposedly it was supposed to start last week but we've been slacking
cause we havent found the course we wanted to do and ended up exploring the school or around taipei

as i mentioned in my previous post i chose surface tension with joanna
yeap, so we spend about 2 hours reading some reference book which proved somewhat too chim
and another 3 hours after lunch watching two seniors do their experiments
both experiments were kinda time consuming considering they only finished like a quarter to half when we left
sheesh...who knows when they finished?
i took a pic of the second experiment
its pretty cool when the senior dropped a drop of water onto a substance called surfactant
the water repelled from it!!!
he showed us a couple of videos showing how the water will react
there are some that repelled,
others will change the shape of the puddle of surfactant
yeah literally like from a circle, the whole puddle moves to just a corner
i havent got a video of it but i'll show you guys if i managed to get my hands on it

after coming back from dinner for one or two hours,
i decided to go for a run
yeap, the usual "oily" feeling came back again XD
considering i havent exercised for more than 2 weeks
and all that unhealthy food i've been eating
at first i saw adrian running and he said he just came back from the NTU side
i was ti ki and wanted to run around our school instead

digressing a little bit
oh, if you still dont know which uni i'm attached to, its NTUST not NTU
and here's the address if you need to mail me anything:
National Taiwan University of Science & Technology
43 Keelung Road
Taipei, 106, Taiwan
Dormitory 1, Room C126
i havent got a prepaid card for my phone yet cause i gotta wait for one of the seniors to get it for us
so please dont call me yet..unless you wanna pay a bomb XD
but i'll call you guys when i get the chance

back to where i was running,
scared the crap outta me when i ran past a cemetary earlier
i tell you i was so scared i was praying when i ran past it
here's a self drawn map of it
the arrow's where i ran
oh yeah, people were also kinda staring me when i ran past them
they looked like they had a big "?" on top of their heads
i think i'm watching too much anime XD
but anyway, they looked surprised
speaking of it, i never seen people jogging along the streets hmmm....
the distance was quite long
i think i ran around 2+ to 3 km
the elementary school looked kinda abandoned,
i mean there were like broken windows and the front porch looked like full of weeds
i actually had an erie feeling when i ran past it already but i thought it was just me
cause the streets were surprisingly getting quieter and quieter
low and behold,
when i turned into the street between the school and cemetary (i still didnt know there was a cemetary yet),
6 outta 13 street lamps were down but i just kept goin on
...until i saw the cemetary on the opposite
then i was thinking to myself, "crap!!! run faster run faster!!"
it gets kinda scary when you're not familiar with area and the only things you hear are your footsteps, breathing and the wind
worst of all, at the end of the street was a dead end!!!
SHIIIIITTT!!!!
i had to make a detour and take my chances through a narrow street (looked more like a wide alley actually)
but thank God it lead back to the school
i dont wanna imagine what will happen if it had led me to another place

哎哟望着天空拜一拜呀,别想不开, 老天爱笨小孩。。。
