The workshop was great yesterday with some very intense moments and some really funny ones:), but I want to write about my ride in the MRT after the workshop...
Five of us actually ended up taking the same train, heading towards Taipei Main Station...and we were talking the whole way through- some English some Chinese sometimes a hybrid language and sometimes translations...and it was so fun...I really didnt notice how the 15 stations just flew by...and it was happy natural fun conversation...
Sometimes you ride the MRT and there is someone you know and you feel like you have to say something because otherwise its impolite. But yesterday, really it was so cool, no social obligation...I was able to just chat with people I have literally seen just twice, and yet feel so free and open to talk to...
Also I think what a contrast this scene was to what often happens...so many classmates or school friends, or people I know from technique class, we have taken class so many times together, also moved together...and yet our MRT rides are so different...If we do acknowledge each other it is at most a smile or a hello, and probably we end up at different ends of the train...
I liked yesterday how my new friends all waited for me to join them, and around one of the centre poles we stood, this animated group, smiling and talking and sharing experiences... It was wonderful!
