Orientation at Bulter University

It's quite a long day today. We spent a whole morning in the Butler University with some information about internship and a whole afternoon sitting in the tour bus touring around the Indianapolis city.

Butler University is not quite big, but it's a beautiful campus to me. The mascot, which is Bulldog, named Blue, is everywhere in the campus. You can see from the picture here.

There are lots of places I think I have to take a visit, like Children's Museum, Circle Monument, the Canal, or some other places close to the downtown.

Neat! Indianapolis

It's Neat!

It's a slang for good things in Indianapolis. Everybody says that.

I bought my prepaid card for my cellphone, costing me $37.10 for 140 minutes. I hope I can keep in 140 minutes for 2 months. Charlotte got worse. Her cellphone is for CDMA system in Taiwan, so her cellphone can't be fit with the sim card of T-Mobile here. After buying a new cellphone by $29.9, everything goes well.



Sally and David, my home stay parents, cooked riced with beef tonight. It was quite like Taiwanese Beef Stowed rice. Amazing.

David was a lieutenant in the army when he was in Vietnam. But no, he didn't kill anyone there, he built roads, bridges there.



I ordered a pair of seals with their names in Chinese on them. They were quite surprised that we brought some gifts. Although they can't read Chinese, I believe they will like these seals (stamps). Jason got a can of Wu-Loon tea and some post stamps.
