Taipei Hustle Vs Braking Into Asia

I’ve been thinking about changing the name of my blog to Braking into Asia! Things have become so complicated Visa wise. And all these stories on Forumosa with sudents and visa troubles I really don’t know what say about it all.

But even just studying is becoming incredibly complex with all these new government regulations. This term at Shi-Da it has been really difficult you now need two types of stamps on your ID card to show you have been study after class in the library.

Previously you had to do a minimum of 2 extra hours of study after your class per week. But now you have to do a minimum of 8 hours per week. This is no bad thing but they only allow you to stamp your card for three hours of study time in the library for that day, because the extra hours you do after that now don’t count.

So in affect the maximum amount of hours your suppose to clock up over the week has to be spread evenly thought the week, in order not to get visa problems. I can see why they do this in order to stop students teaching English illegally but the problem is that if you want to do anything else with your free time like visit the south of Taiwan or take a road trip it starts to get complicated.
