Weekend of First!!!

My first typhoon - I have never seen it so windy and rainy in my life. I have also never seen so many jacked up umbrellas, the street was cover with jacked up cheap umbrellas. Mine got a little beat up.

My first piece of cheese - Yes I ate my first piece of real cheese since I have been here not counting that real fake stuff they call cheese that they put on hamburgers. It was so good.

My first marriage proposal - My boss does they international parties and he invited me to for free. That is where they had the cheese. They also had roast beef and other goodies he got from Costco. Yeah they have Costco here but it is really far away. So this Taiwanese girl started talking to me and must of been clueless about the ring on my finger and basically told me she wanted to marry a nice Westerner and I looked like a nice person. Yea . . . FREAKY!!!!!!!

My first gas station - Yes I saw my first gas station it was really weird had not seen one since I got here

My first car ride - got a ride home from a member after church. Was really weird driving on the other side of the road.

My first wedding anniversary away from Erin – yeah that one sucked! Not a fan of that one . . . she went to the Melting Pot without me . . . again! But I love her and miss her a whole heck of a lot.
