A trip to the mountains is one of the best things that can happen in the scorching summer. To escape from the heat in the concrete jungle, we five, including Mei-ying, Li-chu, Shu-yuan, Mei-chen, and me, went to Yangmingshan today. The photos above show us at the last stop, a forest where a lot of people like to have their wedding photos taken.
Our first stop was Black Cabin, a restaurant where we would have our lunch.
With the owner of Black Cabin.
After lunch we stepped out of the restaurant to enjoy fresh air in nature. Sipping drinks, we chatted until around 5pm. We exchanged health tips, told jokes, talked about the 2014 World Cup and the impact of family and school education on a person, etc.
During our chat, Mei-chen mentioned how she was trained in English listening skills at NTU. Her professor had the students listen to several pieces of news from ICRT and transcribed them. This coincides with the method mentioned in the book Absolutely Don't Study English (千萬別學英文), in which the author suggested English learners listen to an English tape over and over again until they can write down every word instead of listening to a lot of tapes only once.
I like to get together with friends. In each gathering, we learn something from each other.
Bathed in love.
