There's a beauty shop in Shulin called "Welly". If you've ever been down and out in Canada you would understand... Maybe other places have "welfare" as well, I don't know.

finally took a pic of this place near my in-laws' house in Taoyuan.

it's a 'music bar', which only seems to open between 10pm and 4am.

I took a long walk around Banqiao last night and I saw a bar called TV Pub. And a guy came out and said hello to me. But I wasn't sure if the place was 'television' themed or not, so I didn't go in.

And by the Global Mall there is an in vitro fertilization clinic, that has a sign in English that says 'Art Baby'. The name of the shop is in English and it is misspelled. It's in all caps and it's something like INVITRO FERTLIZ ATION.

I didn't take pictures, but I should have.

For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way. Something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life -- FR ALFRED D'SOUZA
