Today I would like to talk about three stereotypical characteristics about my hometown. 

Last Saturday I felt frustrated, because my new Electric pot was broken by accident. It is easy to buy materials to repaire it in Taiwan, but difficult in UK. Therefore, my parents   suggested me to buy a second-hand one which is sold only 6-10 pounds. It is really cheap but I still wish mine could be working again if someone can help me buy fuse which is used in TATUNG electric pot.

Recently, I learned a new word called “IP Drama”. It doesn’t mean the location of computer; in fact, the acronym stands for “Intellectual Property” which means one content can be transformed into various performances including movies, drama, song, online games etc. It's popular in mainland China, but it is best known as the drama of A Touch of Green and Rock Records in Love in Taiwan.

The trend of digital convergence comes so soon, not only the platforms but also the content. However, it seems that our government isn’t ready to face the challenge. When it comes to literature, music, TV, movie, comics and games, you will find they have different administrative organ. It's a big problem because communication doesn’t work very well when they have their own bosses and have no common decision.

This year we had 9 days-off on Lunar New Year, and we were so lucky because the weather was sunny . As a result, my family went sightseeing almost every day. We went sightseeing at Jimmy's Plaza, Mingchih Forest Recreation Area, National Center for Tradional Arts, and Ao-ti Fishing Harbor. They are famous scenery in Yilan attracting many tourists, even though the places are crowded especially in festivals, they are still visited.

The Lunar NewyYear is a big thing for Taiwanese people. On the eve of Lunar New Year, we gather around the table to eat dinner and place spring couplets on the door. Most importantly, all family members, wherever they live in, have a reunion at this moment.
