HELLO~ Andy
I’m idle folk. Glad to be friends.^^
I live in Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan.
I like to read comics and novels for fun in my free time. The Sword of Truth series, the Dark Elf trilogy, the Farseer trilogy…are my favorites.
What will you do in your leisure time?
In Taipei, there are many theaters showing a wide variety of movies, such as romance, drama, sci-fi, action, animation, comedy, fantasy films.
Some movies I have seen before still interest me watching over and over again.
It is more fun to go to the cinema with a group of friends on holiday.
Motion pictures give me information and add it in to my store of knowledge.

How about you?
Hi
Whats your name I cant just keep calling you Idle folk.
I like reading to. Im into Dc comics, Just finished reading to final crisis cross over, looking foward to the blackest night story line. As for cinema, I am going next friday to see the watchman. The trouble at the moment is that theres that many films comming out I just havn't go the money to go. And as for your e-mail. Your english is very good. What music do you like?Im into Heavy metal & rock. My favorite bands are Iron Maiden, Alice cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, Meat loaf, Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, White snake, Heart & Smokie. Nice hearing from you.
Looking forward to talking
Andy.

Dear Andy.
oh~ I forgot about it. :P
My name is Sole.
I know Dc comics from Hollywood movies, such as Superman, Batman...^^
The American type comics (Dc.Marvel..) is not a mainstream in Taiwan.
I often read Japanese comics, watch Japanese animations, and play Japanese video games. Perhaps is because in cultural proximity.
I believed firmly that has many movies in the US that can be chosen.
Transformers2 is a film that I expect. * *
Sometimes I will buy the films to see at home. I think PS3 is a good choice for blue-ray player.
My little brother also like Heavy metal & rock. It is really very "lively" music.
I prefer Bon Jovi, Linkin Park, James Blunt, Radio head, Caetano Veloso...and film sound tracks.
I used to work in the electronic company engaged in artistic design of game. The working content is probably character design and man-machine interface.
Now, I'm a student in the second grade of graduate school, so I need to study hard in English. Students can be said to be a leisurely job. : P
How about you?
Take care, bye. ~

Hi Sole.How are you.
I work volunatary at a local charity, and go to college half a day a week. I'm doing a english litriture course, Once thats finished, I'm thinking about another I.T. or an accountancy course. There's not many job's in Hull, so I might as well continue doing college courses. I love Manga animation especially Devil Man, trouble is I can't afford them at the moment. I love the picture of you. Would lve to see more. Sadly The picture on my profile is the only one I've got.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Andy.

Dear Andy,
Sorry for my late reply.
Manga that you called the Japanese caricature is pronounced by Japanese. ^^I love Devil Man too. I like his picture style, especially the lovely girl that he drew. ( Katsura Masakazu カツラ マサカズ)
I think that Berserk is another very interesting manga, but it was translated to English uncertainly.
I put the photos in the website, are all in Chinese interface.I will go to look for English photograph book, and tell you as soon as possible.
I have a boyfriend now.Foreigners are very apt to have beautiful girlfriend in Taiwan, usually teach students English. cc..
I am not very familiar with your city, how about your life?Taiwan is influenced by the global economic crisis, a lot of people can’t find the work to do.You are certainly benevolent, you work voluntary at a local charity. This is quite rare in Taiwan. Everybody will like you very much.
Take care~~~ ^^

Hi Sole.
How are you?

Tried to email you, but had trouble getting rid of a virus. It say’s it’s from Internet explorer and that you have to buy the upgraded version of AVG 2009.If you get any emails saying about upgrading AVG, do not open just delete. Life if Hull at the moment is depressing. The charity I work for may soon stop. The building we are in is council owned and they want to sell the property. Trying to get a job here is very hard, the fishing and building industry in Hull is hit hard. The trouble with Hull is that people and businesses have to come into Hull and not through it. Also the Government puts the unemployed on back to work schemes which are a joke, it only for getting the unemployment figures down and they don't help you find a job. Sorry about the moan. I'm talking to this pen pal who wants a relationship, but when I ask certain question, she evades the subject. Bit weird, the pictures I've got of her is professionally done. So I don't know what to do? As for why foreigners like Asian women, it’s because they are sexy.

Talk to you soon.

Andy.

Hi~~ Andy.
Taiwan government also can't find the effective solution to the unemployment. The government is always not reliable. = ='
We have a peculiar job that enable the jobless to be possible to make money easily, that is street vendor.
That is an unstable income, just a short work. If certainly very successful, it will be the first step becoming a boss, and make a lot of money.
I thought that is not a very relaxed work, it is very busy from morning till night.
Besides, I regret to say that I don't understand "the pictures I've got of her is professionally done" meaning of this sentence.
May ask you to explain?
Everybody thinks a little differently, especially from different countries, or she has other intentions. :P
It is very tired to get up early this morning to participate in the TOEIC test, because of school stipulation.
This is my photo album in website.
I will upload more photos in the near future.
Take care! All the best~~ ^^
Sole.

Hi Sole.

Love the pictures.
Is that a teletubby with you.
If it is I got drove mad with them when my nephew and neicies was little. As for the term "Professionally done", it means a Professional photographer had took them. So I don't even know if that what she looks like.As for our goverment, they are only intrested in putting people into schemes so they can say that they have reduced tho unemployment figures.
nice hearing from you.
Andy.

Dear Andy,
That is a costume party, we say it is "Cosplay", everybody acts in the different cartoon and movie's role separately.
I often meet such a photo too, especially in community websites. I guess that she thought such is quite mystical. ^-^

I had been to Canada, Austria, Czech Republic, Japan, Singapore, India, Palau, Britain, Paris...etc.
I plan to go to Russia next year, because the architecture of Russia is very characteristic. (I hope travel will carry out. he~ he~ Sometimes plan not to happen to change.)
Peru and Egypt also attract me very much. It is very difficult to make decision. :P
I would travel more than 12 hours by plane. It is the first tiring thing.
However, the most important one to me is making money in order to afford the traveling expenses conscientiously.
I will finish the Master's thesis this year, probably June, and then go to work.

All the best

Hi Sole. How are you?
I also like making money, but in Hull it's very hard to do, Job's here is very hard to get. I would love to travel, farthest I've been is to London, that's where my grandparents used to live. I'm at the moment trying to save up for a bigger place to live, but the bill's come in to quickly, so the money goe's on that.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Andy.

Dear Andy. ^^
I went to London for 10 days last summer, and participated in art festival in Edinburg by the way, the weather is a little clammy.
It is really an important thing to save money, because I'm always unable to manage personal financial plan. Perhaps I may realize your mood. ^^
What kind of work do you want to look for?
Good luck
Sole

Hi Sole
How are you. I amd currently looking fo Administration work, or become an aurthor. So what are you up to at the moment.
Andy.

15
Dear Andy,
How are you~~~ ^^
Spring is a delightful season in Taiwan.
The temperatures are moderate, and the blooming trees and flowers make the city bright with color. This is the time I can begin to wear lighter clothing with abundant color.
I'm busy with the thesis as well as English examination now, in order to graduate.
But I still want to go to play. = ="
Therefore I will go to Beijing of China with my family in April, Beijing city changes very largly in recent years.
There are many new buildings and urban renewals, I hoped that there will be very clean.
I need to finish the homework ahead of dateline in order to travel.
After considering my interests and talents, I feel that designer and illustrator might be the best choice for my career.

Truly ^^
Sole.

I went to see Star Trek and X-Men Origins: Wolverine this week.Though I am not star trek fans, I think this film is very interesting.
