There is a Japanese saying: “A person gets bored of beauty in three days but gets used
to ugliness in three days.” It means that although most people enjoy beautiful things, they

when there was no wind? Why did people fall down on streets without any reasons? Since
he never had the answers to these questions, he believed that there must be something.
Kobitos are his answers to these funny but interesting questions. Next time you see Kobitos,

(Below is part of Jean’s interview with some foreigners in Taiwan.)
Kelly: I don’t think so. Pronunciation is not so important. Language is just a tool. You
don’t need to sound like an American. If people can understand your ideas, why
do you need to care about it so much? I believe learning more vocabulary is more
helpful.
Stanley: Yeah, I agree with Kelly. I think it’s more important that you try to use new words
or new phrases. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes and keep practicing speaking
English. Your pronunciation will be getting better and better.
Kimiko: Well, English pronunciation means a lot to me because sometimes people don’t
understand me, and I feel so bad. I am sometimes afraid to speak English in front
of people although I know the correct sentences.
Vicky: I think it is important because it’s easier for the listener if he / she doesn’t need to
guess someone’s ideas all the time. I always feel bad when I don’t understand
other people’s English. It’s just too hard for me.
John: Although I am an American, I don’t really care about other people’s pronunciation.
In fact, even American English and British English could sound very different.

Green sea turtles are the world’s largest hard-shelled sea turtles. Most of them weigh
about 136 to 181 kilograms and are lighter than a piano, which weighs about 227 kilograms.
An 11-meter-long school bus is about 9 to 10 times longer than a green sea turtle. Green
sea turtles spend most of their lives underwater, and they can stay there for about five
hours without coming up for air. What’s more, mother green sea turtles will go back to
the same place on the same beach where they were born to lay eggs. They will lay about
115 eggs and cover them with sand before going back to the sea. Then, two months later,
5-centimeter-long baby turtles will break the eggs and start their long life. They can live
around 80 to 100 years or even more. Here are some interesting facts about green sea
turtles:

1. They have been on Earth for more than 220 million years.
2. They don’t have teeth.
3. They can’t hide their heads and legs inside the shell.
4. They are vegetarians. They eat sea grass.
5. Baby girl turtles will be born if the temperature of the egg is high; if the temperature
of the egg is low, baby boy turtles will be born.

At the beginning of this year, we invited several new

fashion designers to join us because we wanted to give a new
look to Catwalk. This chart shows how it has worked. You can
see the move did bring much more young people under the age of
30 to our department store; however, I’m not really happy with it.
We are losing our old customers, and the items bought by those
new customers were cheaper than the ones bought by those over
the age of 30. Also, the young customers asked for more bags
and paper to pack the items and made more trash in our store.
That raised a lot of costs when we made much less money. By
the end of this year, I’m asking you all to come up with new ideas
that will help make up for the mistake we’ve made and bring in
more money to Catwalk.

I can’t believe that Joseph Su will come to Taiwan! I’ve loved him for more than five
years. I never miss any of his movies. This will be his first fan meeting in Taiwan, and I’m
so excited! I surely have to go!

Sep. 21
I just checked on Su’s website and got the fan meeting date: Oct. 20. Luckily, it’s
Friday, so I think I can go since the fan meeting begins at 6 p.m. But I’m a little worried
because the fan meeting is held in a local gym, which is far from my school and my home.
I need to think about how to get there.

Sep. 22
Ivy got the fan meeting ticket and also bought one for me. Oh, I’m so happy! I told her
that I’ll surely treat her to dinner. Ivy will also go to the fan meeting with me. However, I
didn’t know that she is a fan of Joseph Su, too. I guess we will have more to talk about at
school.

Sep. 23
Ivy’s father said he can drive us to the gym and pick us up after the fan meeting. This
can’t be true! Everything goes well, and thanks a lot for Ivy and her father’s help. To be
honest, my father will never do that for me. He always thinks it’s silly to be crazy about an
actor so much. Anyway, I am going to see Joseph Su in a month! I really can’t wait!

Dear Mom and Dad,
Uncle Henry took me to Mengjia today, and we experienced a festival there. There’s
a temple over 150 years old for the King of Qingshan in Mengjia. The Qingshan King is
believed by many people to be a city god who takes care of good people and punishes bad
guys. The king’s birthday is in three days, so people held a festival to celebrate it today.
The festival began at 16:00. Some people carried the black statue of the king and walked
around in Mengjia. Lots of people waited for the king on both sides of the streets. Uncle
Henry and I were among them. The photo I sent with the e-mail shows where I was, and
behind me was the king passing by. It’s cool, isn’t it?
After the god left, we went to the night market that used to be famous for the show
of killing snakes. Well, I did see some restaurants that sell snake meat, but I didn’t see
anyone kill snakes. We didn’t enter those restaurants. We went for other foods. I enjoyed
the sweet taste of the rice balls in red bean soup, and Uncle Henry’s favorite dish was goose
meat.
Tomorrow, we’re leaving for Kaohsiung. Uncle Henry said the city also has night
markets where the tastes of the foods are different from those in Taipei. I should try them,
too.
Love you both,
Lora

library. It was a great bonus to me—a place to rest.
