A secret celebration

Today was my roommate's birthday but he doesn't like people to celebrate for his birthday or even acknowledge it for the matter. Actually, I hope he doesn't get angry that I'm blogging this :) Anyway we went out tonight but first played some games at the place. Our coworkers came and our other roommate was there too and we were playing this Chinese game where you say a 2-3-4-5 character word/phrase and then the next person has to use the last character from what the previous person said to be the first character of your new word. It's hard because you have to use the same tones and I'm really bad with that. It's easy to do the pronunciation but there are 4 tones so if you say "ma" for example, you have to make sure what "ma" you use. It was fun though and I'm proud to say that I got a couple by myself. I played this game in college and a couple of times with my friends/family here in Taiwan.

Later we went to a bar and it ended up being karaoke night. I was definitely belting out to Jay Chou lol Then we stayed until 5am and went to eat a rice congee restaurant. I was practically falling asleep by then. It's okay though because I don't have class until 4:30 and I just meet with my coworker to work on my Chinese around 3. Yay for night classes!
